Cristian Romero

Who cares where the fudge he is. He’s off anyway. It’s a bad look, but I can understand him wanting to see his boyhood club maybe winning something instead of us potentially going down. He never should’ve been the captain in the first place, obviously, but we all knew that. Sell him and move on, no point being bitter about him not fudging sitting in the stands tomorrow - what difference does it make? He will be gone, we’ll get someone else in, and no one will care a couple of months from now.

What? Being injured?

Whats he getting away with? Having treatment from people he is more comfortable with treating him to make a world cup?

Come on now fella

Honestly if you don’t think it says something about his leadership that he chooses not to be there, that’s ok and we can agree to disagree. I think it says something.

I was making a general point, if the captain is not the most committed, then other players will follow that lead. There’s very likely already an excuse making culture in the squad that stems from him.

Then whats the argument then? Pride and optics? What are people 12 (the wider people not on here incase that upsets)?

With all due respect if him not making a difference being here isnt the argument and his chance of making a world cup are improved under the gaze of those in Argentina, then why are people screaming into the abyss? I find that the strange part.

Footballs changed mate, I dont care if he is here or he isnt, football is more transactional now, its just the reality.

And in fairness, it works both ways, I saw a clip earlier of Danny Thomas penalty miss as its the anniversary of the final win, I still get chills with the "one Danny Thomas" ringing out after, can you imagine that now from our fanbase, could you fcuk. To that point, people who have cnuted Romero off on here all season are those most in uproar at the news, why would he want to stay with such support and that which occurs in the stands on match days, it works both ways.

Also as for ex pros etc, again with all due respect, every d0g and their d1ck in that field have an opinion and most to rile engagement (just look at social media and talksh1te). So I dont hold any bearing on that. De Zerbi staunchly defended it, that holds more water than anyone, people will say "well he isn't going to not defend the player" well that might be the case, but he basically corroborated the agents story.

As for winning mentality, that comes as much from always having excuses for things, this being the start of what feels like another all told. Big clubs with big mentality have individual accountability, I haven't tracked player movements when injured during big games at other clubs, but I am sure it happens. We also are guilty of always finding fault with our club and players, I don't know another like it, granted I am not in others circles, but I find out club grim for it TBH.

If him going to Argentina gives him more chance of the WC, he goes with my wishes, thats from someone who would also sell him in the summer, so I won't be contrary about it all

Does him being in Argentina give him a better chance of making the World Cup? Is he doing anything there he couldn’t have done in London this week that’s going to make a serious difference?

Stuff like this creates room for excuses. “The captain couldn’t be fudged even being here, am I going to prepare as well as I could”, “the captain thought it was okay to be late, do I have to put in 100% in training”, “the captain lashed the club on social media, I’m fudging tired, do I have to give that extra 1%.” It’s another little chip away at our standards.

For the record, I’ve been a strong defender of Romero on here. I think he’s a wonderful talent but as a character, this has finished me with him.

RDZ spoke glowingly of Davies yesterday and the fact he wants to stay with the team. Why is that? And, if he wants Davies there, do you not think in an ideal world, he’d want Romero there too?
