As long as 4 or 5 years ago Pep showed the real worth of excellent full backs, and what they bring to the team in the modern , and acquired 4 over a short period costing £40- £50m each. Roberts is a real gem, capable of scoring and assisting more goals per season than some of our midfielders-as he has shown this season

I remember Mourinho mocking Pep for paying all that money for full backs. I think Pep won that one.

Mourinho is a dinosaur now - his type will always have their odd day but will never be dominant again imo - at least not to the extent that we've seen with Pep

Roberts has turned into a very good player!....before the World cup i criticized him, since then he's been tremendous.
What a bargain!

Im not convinced either full back will be comfortable playing our system in the premier league but Im confident Kompany will work out what’s required early doors.
I wasn’t a huge Robert’s fan at the beginning of the season but I think he’s really developed and looked brilliant this year.
Seems a great lad as well
