Roofe bagged his eighth goal from just 12 league outings when netting the opener in Saturday's 2-0 win at home to Bristol City with the 25-year-old already over half way to equaling last season's tally of 14.

And Bielsa admitted he was impossible not to impressed by the contribution of the £3m signing who was named August's Championship player of the month and then missed the next three weeks with a calf injury.
