Romero comfortable despite being Red Devils second choice

With David de Gea never failing to impress, playing time for Sergio Romero has been limited this season, but the Manchester United No.2 insists he feels as comfortable as ever as he looks to make the most of rare opportunities.

Despite getting chances early in his United career, Romero has been kept on the bench since arriving in the summer of 2015, featuring only in the EFL Cup and Europa League so far this season.

He has still found time to impress, however, putting in strong showings in victories over Northampton Town and Zorya Luhansk, performances he believes are down to the coaching setup at Old Trafford.

“Broadly speaking, we are working really well together,” said the Argentinean.

“We have two coaches, Silvinho [Louro] and Emilio [Alvarez], and I think that myself, David and Sam [Johnstone] are working really hard alongside them.

“As each week goes by we are all feeling more and more comfortable with each other as a group. I think you can see this in David when he’s playing – he feels good and relaxed in himself – and that our work and training during the week is very good.

“Similarly with myself you could see [when I’ve played] that I’d been training hard and waiting for my chance to play and that when that did happen, I was 100 per cent ready. As I said, I reckon a great job is being done with our training and that can only be a good thing.”
