Cristian Romero

Of all the things to worry about on Sunday the location of one of our players who can’t play is pretty far down the list

Should he be there? Probably but bigger fish to fry
 
Agreed but I only have a limited amount of things I can worry about at any one time and where our injured captain is on Sunday isn’t one if them. Whether we’re playing Lincoln next season definitely is

So, he got permission. Outrage over (ha!)

You seem to be missing the point - No one was suggesting he had run off without permission. The fact is as usual the captain who is paid handsomely by his club is prioritising his national team ahead of the clubs most important game for years.

It's rehab not keyhole surgery. He could and would have continued his rehab here for a few more days before leaving to Argentina after this game if he wanted but no - as usual he can't wait to run off back to Argentina. Captains usually go above and beyond, the saddest thing there is no surprise whatsoever he has chosen to do this....

Is that what you read into it?

The manager has said "Not all leaders are the same, Ben Davies (a player out of contract effectively) and he asked to stay with us and he wants to stay with his team in the lodge with his teammates, but Romero is preparing for the World Cup"

I can't read that any other way than Romero has made a choice, here is an example of a better choice, Romero is concerned about himself/world cup not one of the most important games in the club's modern history. I think he's gone, it's what RDZ said early in his tenure, if a player doesn't want to be here, we don't want them.

I'd still take a very dim view of it personally. He got permission? That's the least I'd have expected. The fact he isn't here is a complete lack of leadership but, sadly, very much indicative of his captaincy this season if reports are to be believed. Habitually late, late after the NLD following a dressing down from Frank, posting negatively on SM about the club before getting sent off for being reckless v Man U when we were already down to minimum numbers and fighting for our lives.

Overall, as captains go, he's been the worst one I remember in our shirt. People won't forget this though. If we go down on Sunday, regardless of the fact he hasn't played, he'll be the poster boy for our relegation and for so much of what is wrong at our club and rightly so.

Would happily see him out the door in the summer for a decent fee.

I think you’re spot on. We should give Romero the benefit of the doubt until the circumstances are confirmed officially. Too often, we condemn people on the strength of an internet whisper. VdV was getting it not so long ago.

If it is true, I’ll be immensely fudged off but I’ll hold my tongue for the moment.

Indeed, sadly haters have to hate.

Sorry mate, I've just turned into a bit of a hater now it's been confirmed. What are your thoughts on him being in Argentina on Sunday?

To be honest i have far more things on my mind that worrying where a player is that is injured and can not play anyway.

Takes all sorts though i guess.
