Cristian Romero

It's a coincidence of scheduling. If there had been any international matches scheduled in the last 3 months he would have missed those too and his availability % for Argentina would have dropped significantly considering the small number of games they actually play. It's just that at the same time that he is returning to the team, the international matches are due to happen.

Yeah that is the fifteen games he missed.

Hard to tell who was/is fitter tbh. Remember VDV played half the time yesterday than Romero did. It might have been the case that Romero would have looked 'fitter' if he had played half the time instead.

That said, i did think Danso and VDV looked more balanced once the substitute took place but that might eb to do with the stage of the game etc

I hope Dando keeps his place on Thursday, whoever is beside him.

VDV was definitely sharper.
Came on and could pass a ball for a start.

Hopefully we reverse the game time on Thursday to ease them both back in and let them get more game time under their belt. Both need it.

I didn't watch the match but VDV got completely flumoxed for the 2nd goal. I don't know maybe the rest of his performance was good? But hid play for that goal was kind brick tbh.

VDV just isnt that great a defender - his speed means he can get himself out of certain holes and looks great on the ball but as a defender he really isn't all that. Goes without saying he's at an age where he can still improve in this area....

Exactly how Walker started, look how far he went

Indeed. But he is a CB and which means he usually faces different challenges to a full back who is often up against a speedy winger. In the modern game your full back doesn't necessarily have to be a great defender....

23, proven he can hang at this level, his speed will always give him that little advantage. Not really worried about him, outside of a couple of elite defenders, the unit is the important thing and that's where we struggle
