    Was getting a lot of praise on the prematch commentary for Crawley last night. has some pretty interesting stats. Clearly a good shot stopper as per below. The attached diagram also shows he likes to come out into the right back spot to play diagonal passes out across the pitch which is unusual but a good asset to have in your team. He’s also a free agent. Given that we need a keeper I thought he might be a good option.


    League 2 goals prevented 23/24:

    1️⃣ Corey Addai - 17.9
    2️⃣ Arthur Okonkwo - 7.4
    3️⃣ Thimothée Lo-Tutala - 5.3
    4️⃣ Paul Farman - 5.1
    5️⃣ Vicente Reyes - 3.9

    some may remember he actually used to play for our U21s before Conway shipped him out to sister club Esberg.

    Watched about half an hour of the match and thought he looked good. Plus he's got cool hair, which immediately puts him above Joe Wildsmith in my pecking order.

    yeah, it references that in my post. Conway sent him to Esberg along with Wolfe and Winfield.

    did not even notice you mentioned it, its been a long day!

    I would like to see us get a keeper with his sort of stature as we have been so bad at dealing with set pieces and crosses etc. Having someone if his size would be a big help.

    Roberts isn't exactly little. He just doesn't command his area like he should.

    He is a shade over 6ft Roberts which is not short but generally for a keeper I would say he is on the shorter side. I am a bit old school too with the keeper, having played there a little bit myself (not to a good standard) but I always prefer a tall commanding keeper.

    I think he was on our books a few years back.
