Cristian Romero

MOTD analysis ripping him apart.

 

[DubSpur]

First off, we went three at the back today, so another change-up in the Premier League.
Secondly, if what you're saying is correct re: organised as a unit, then there has been a dismal failure in coaching today's set-up properly. I think there has been a failure generally in what's being coached, but especially today, especially with a new system to utilize in the Prem.

It's the same failures whether in a back 4 or back 3. Running out like a headless chicken leaving big gaps behind him and it happens too often. That's not playing as a unit.

It's all about cuti.

It's clear he decides to try to win/rescue the game all by himself at certain points.

Up to the manager (especially with 3 CBs on pitch) to coach the team to cover for that, also up to the manager to call him out if he is actually going rogue.

Amazing, every time the entire team looks dysfunctional, lack of organization, lack of covering the basics, its every player, every top international turns to brick (I keep referring to United, funny how every brick player in the last 2 years left them and was amazing elsewhere in worse teams), yet none of that is the manager

And I return to the issue with management of not letting that happen, of putting in place rules and structures (or commanding the respect) for him to curb himself.
I love the fact he is playing as a CF sometimes and scoring goals, but to your point, he is a defender primarily.
I wonder if there is a respect issue there?
FWIW I love Romero and agree that he goes off piste defensively sometimes.
I do think the formation switch has to be accounted for today.

Id play him in front of the 2 cbs. A dm if you like. Him and VDV are our only means of goals it seems. Something has to chabge. Definately need a striker that gets into the goalscoring positions too.

Simply the best player at Spurs currently.
