Millwall boss on Romain Esse: ‘He’ll fly the nest at some stage – I’m sure to the Premier League’
MILLWALL head coach Neil Harris was impressed with nineteen-year-old Lions winger Romain Esse’s contribution against West Bromwich Albion today, calling his performance “outstanding“.
The Lions were pinned back for most of the game by a strong West Brom side that benefited from a loud home support. The Baggies had 79 per cent possession, and forced Millwall to do their fair share of defending. While Esse is typically a player that excels with the ball at his feet, Harris was particularly happy with his efforts out of possession.
“Romain is going be a top player,” Harris said. “He’ll fly the nest at some stage, I’m sure to the Premier League.
“Romain showed his qualities today with his flicks and his quality in possession to get us up the pitch and control areas for us, but his performance without the ball and defensively was outstanding today.
“It’s hard for a nineteen-year-old who is so good with the ball to have that discipline without [it]. His game understanding is phenomenal, it’s one of somebody way beyond his years. I’m very pleased with Romain.”
