there wre a number of times when Roberts rushed off his line almost reached the half way line at one stage! and headedthe ball clear when outside his box. Was he justified in doing so? making up for the poor defending? lucky to escape without being punished losing possession etc/ Im undecided and wonder what you think?

Did Luton score as a result ?
Did they even come close to scoring as a result ?

Answer those questions, and you'll have your answer to the poll. Roberts' decision-making was spot on throughout. Not even close to panic-stations, the guy commands his area and is always alert enough to tidy up in front of him.

Ben Roberts reads the game very well and comes off his line out of the box when required.
Would rather see him get rid a bit quicker.
Quality keeper.Apart from his throw out on Saturday.
:clap: :clap: :clap:
 


Yeah I trust Roberts, he's a quality keeper. There was one point today where a high cross-cum-shot came flying over and everyone gasped because he stayed on his line, he dived acrobatically to tip it over the bar - great stuff!

He does worry me when he comes out and tries to dribble the ball around players before getting rid of it, otherwise i'm happy with him.
