Cristian Romero

I speak pretty good Spanish and my wife is fluent. So worth explaining that the use of the word disgraceful is a mistranslation from Instagram.

He probably used the word “vegonzoso” which in this context means something closer to “should not be happening”.

Translated directly into English as disgraceful is quite the tone jump.
 
There is always context to anything that Romero says, as he isn't the strongest English speaker. His point however is correct.
This board of directors has either officiated over or allowed a sporting director to neglectfully stumble to the end of the transfer window with a squad that is decimated by injury, and which before that crisis wasn't playing well at all. The same board that hired a manager with the mandate very specifically to compete on four fronts, has been given £13m worth of new players in the month, and lost 9 to injury, some for rest of the season and most until April.
How is a situation where a disgraced Yves Bissouma has to be "reintegrated" after a series of misdemeanours involving recreational nitrous oxide use, in any way a positive?

The youth setup should to an extent kick in herez but aside from a few minutes for Byfield, it doesn't appear that there is anyone else in that setup so far that is trusted enough to do a job.

We have no fit right back, one recently recovered left back, half the central defenders available, with one of those left having been out for a year, virtually no wide players, and only one creative midfielder fit.

Now if VDV is back shortly, and the Kulu saga is magically almost done, maybe we are not so bad, especially if Spence is also short term.

Nonetheless we're not in good shape, not in very good form, and about to play three very strong teams in a season where we have found even the relegation threatened sides a handful.

I have to say the words "be careful want you wish for" are coming to mind. For all his faults I suspect Levy would have done things very differently here.
 
Does he just write any kneejerk response he wants after a game and pull it through Google translate or is there someone in his team doing the translating? Surely there should be some sort of barrier between him and social media by now. I'm not sure exactly what he is trying to achieve by seemingly having a dig at the board (unless its a poor translation, in which case he should double or triple check) other than to create even more chaos around the team. He's our captain ffs, and not acting like one. You dont have to publicly hang out your superiors to dry every time you feel something is off. What could they have done with us having 12 players out due to injury anyway? Just sign 5 new players? That would be bloody stupid.

I don't know, I think its time Romero start acting like an adult and as a captain, and protect his team mates and coach, and that isn't done by coming out with vague statements on fudging Instagram.

No but we had all of summer and 4 months prep work to get some loans in at the very least. So over a year we cant get a left wing and a grown up LB?

This board is beyond negligent. If there dont want Frank here (which quite frankly seems like they are trying the best to screw him over) then sack him. How can anybody who claims to "want us to compete" make these incredibly dense decisions. They continue to get a free ride.
And we deserve everything thats coming to us. Well ENIC do.

Its gonna get worse and if we stay on the course with this bunch of board members. They will make sure we get relegated next season if not this.
If Dom and anybody else goes down (which is quite likely) Good luck.

We could recall most of the youngsters that scored on our European run. But knowing Lange the contract probably doesn't allow it.
