Manchester City youngster Patrick Roberts believes he can make it at Etihad despite competition: 'I always believe in myself and my ability'

Patrick Roberts believes he can still be a success at Manchester City after his eye-catching display against his parent club for Celtic.

The former Fulham forward moved to the Etihad in the summer of 2015 for £11million, but he has found opportunities limited since his move to the Premier League side.

Roberts joined Celtic on an 18-month loan in a bid to get first team football in January. In that time he has seen a series of players signed for considerable fees in his own position, including Leroy Sane and Gabriel Jesus.
