The biggest step forward for Romelle would be for him to learn how to use his right foot more. At the moment he's very tricky but predictable in that if he's played on the left, he will be trying to deliver a cross, while if he's played on the right, he will be cutting inside, aiming to shoot. Which side suits him best is open to debate, but I've been impressed with his shooting ability in the past.

The other thing to remember is that Sheffield United have a large fan base who do not put up with players who don’t pull their weight. He looks like he’s already winning them over which is a great credit to how he’s applied himself.

It’s turning out to be a very good loan for him. He’s young, which means he’ll be inconsistent, and there will be periods when he’s back on the bench, but if he keeps developing his match skills then he’ll be a hell of a prospect when we get him back next season.

Common sense.

It's lovely to be excited about the player, but I can't help but feel people are getting ahead of themselves.

I fully endorse that just like every other young new player that is signed.

Always the way, for 30 years we have had the same thing, someone should be starting because he played well for the B team or on loan 2 divisions below etc.

It’s as if they think the powers that be are missing a trick, rather than watch the player every single day, they should base it on 1 or 2 reserve games.

Having watched a total of about 70 minutes of Romelle across a few matches the thing that has surprised me the most is his tremendous workrate. I must admit I had him as a bit of a show pony , someone who loves all the tricks and flicks but not so good at the dirty side of the game . The type of player the crowd loves but drives coaches mad , a young Benrahma.
He was literally all over the pitch harrying and tackling and covering where he needed to be , it looks like he’s slowly winning over their dinosaur of a manager which would be no small achievement.
An exciting prospect no doubt and it will be interesting to see where it goes for him from here at Sheff U , doubt we have any plans to call him back as he’s in the best place for now.
BTW sense of perspective he’s a month older than Josh King who’s just been called into the senior England squad , let’s hope Romelle follows him in due course !!

Interesting. I've always believed after seeing him for a limited time that he'll be a regular for us, just a matter of when. Certainly has the talent to play for England if he applies himself and works at 100 percent.
