He featured in their Youth Cup defeat to Burnley at Carrow Road earlier this week.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  A pacey winger, who can also play as a number 10, Steele revealed the players who have influenced his game in a recent interview.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cThere&#8217;s not really a main player &#8211; I&#8217;d say I take little bits from different players and just see what they do that I&#8217;m not doing, and then I just try to implement that into my game,\u201d he told the Pink Un last week.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cSo I&#8217;d just say a basic one, Neymar &#8211; he has loads of flair and creativity, but then I try and mix that with Ronaldo with the end product. So it just mixes my game up.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  \u201cWhen Jonny Rowe was here, that was a player I looked up to. Obviously he&#8217;s gone on to different things, but he was a player I looked up to, just his flair, his end product, which he got very good at towards the end of his career at Norwich.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 17-year-old has penned terms until 2028 after impressing in his first year as a scholar, including in&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":385098,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-385097","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385097","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=385097"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385097\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/385098"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=385097"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=385097"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=385097"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
