Sheffield Wednesday boss Bruce delighted with Newcastle winger Aarons

Sheffield Wednesday boss Steve Bruce is delighted with the form of on-loan Newcastle United winger Rolando Aarons.

Bruce brought Aarons in on-loan back on deadline day and the 23-year-old has hit the ground running - with a goal and an assist in nine games.

"I think with anybody who has been out for a long time and who has been under the radar for a bit, the main thing is A. can you put together a run of games and B. can you stay fit," Bruce told the Sheffield Star.

"I've seen the advantage of both of those things with Rolando. Of course, scoring a goal and playing well gives everybody that bit of confidence and Rolando has given us that something that we didn't have before in the wide areas.

"He's got a little trick, he's quick and he can score a goal.

"He's improving and that can only go game by game. He's done well the lad, really good lad, wants to do well, wants to enjoy it, plays with a smile on his face. It's good to see."
