Swindon manager Maurice Malpas has revealed he will spend the summer searching for cover for injured winger Christian Roberts.Roberts has been sidelined since the game with Huddersfield with a knee problem and will undergo surgery next week.

Malpas admits the midfielder faces "a long road" back to fitness and believes he will face a tricky task finding an adequate replacement.

"Robbo is a versatile player and can play in a number of positions," Malpas told the club's official website.

"In the summer I will be looking for players who can play in his position because we need cover.

"Those positions are not as easy to get as a player who can play in just the one slot."
