Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Roberts.
Judged on this season alone, Roberts graded 22 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 27th of 66 of the 66 central midfielders in the League One, on 2 goals, 1 assist and 2.523 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 17 → 22). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 20, 60th of 66 of the 66 central midfielders in the League One. At 32 Roberts is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2022/23 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 11 clean sheets across 41 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (6th of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 20.3, Roberts carries the 60th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the League One of 66. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.52 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~13), then tapers with age. At 32, Roberts sits on 5, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Roberts's projected Rating — 20.3 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
