So Ed, seems like it'd cost north of 15 mil to keep Roberts and Edouard and that is to maintain our current squad so do you reckon we will actually build on our core players and actually strengthen.

{Ed007's Note - Yes.}

Ed it’s been well documented this week Peter Lawwell has been in talks with PSG for the permanent transfer of Edouard. Do you know if there’s are such talks with Man City for a similar deal for Paddy. Or indeed have these talks already taken place?

{Ed007's Note - No, Roberts will return to City at the end of the season.}

Just seen his interview on Sky Sports. Think the dream of landing Paddy permanently is over. Says he wants to play with a premiership club next season.

Was just about to comment on that Ice Man. Fair play to him, he has his own ambitions. Good luck to him and depending how his career develops I'd welcome him back at some point. Sounds like he's enjoyed his time here. So then, let's get looking for a new wide man.

Just saw that myself IM, would have loved Paddy signed up for 10 but i am glad he has come out and said this early as we can't have a summer like last waiting until the last minute. If we are going to go get a player to challenge Forrest for a place we need to get it done early. With Bain signed up hopefully Edouard next.

Good luck to the lad, he never really hid his desire to play there, he might return one day, am sure he'll have fond memories.

Very disappointed that he won't be back as I saw glimpses of Jinky in his trickery, ability and creativity and his presence in the squad definitely had a positive effect on Forrest.
Fortunately - in a way - we never had to rely on Roberts this season, as he had much fewer appearances, but he will still be a big loss.

He's been here over 2 seasons was never going to happen
Never really kicked on from last season due to injuries and the form of Forrest.

May have been a different story with Roberts if Forrest hadn't kept him out of the team.

Good luck to the Bhoy at least he was open and honest.

Malkybhoy I don't agree. For me Roberts always seen his future down south no matter how many games he played this season.
Truth be told if we had signed him on a permanent when he first came here he'd have probably only stayed this amount of time anyway.
