Roberts - Returning to Leeds. Likely to have played his last game for us

Genuinely think this is good news for us.

Can’t stand his attitude, we’re better off without him.

I wasn't impressed when he joined. His goal scoring record for Leeds is about 1 in 10 (60 starts plus 48 from the bench and 9 goals). What he also did was he blocked up one of our loan positions in January. So, no chance to replace him. His last appearance being away at Hull at the end of January.

His QPR stats out of 37 games are:

Starts: 14
Subbed: 13
On as a sub: 7
Injured: 16
Goals: 4

Totally underwhelming.

Wasn't the deal to buy him £4.5m?

I know that was notional, based on promotion etc but you really don't get much for your money nowadays do you?

We'd have got better value for money if we'd signed Ethelred the Unready and he died in 1022.

Agreed. A much better King than he is given credit for. Whereas Roberts was pants.
