Sad but true.
Says it’s a done deal
So we sold a Coco and are getting a Cutey. Is that good?
(gotta love the South American nicknames)
Ahhhhh, congrats... The first signs of "I'd have preferred White" after weeks of moaning about not getting Romero tied up.
Whatever; if you're so skeptical; I'm all for it!
According to Wikipedia, Romero has already signed for us:

Perhaps because he's just won the Copa America vs someone who played for Brighton and didn't see a minute during the Euro's?....

Anyone can update Wiki dude.
Only player on the pitch was he?Perhaps because he's just won the Copa America vs someone who played for Brighton and didn't see a minute during the Euro's?....
You watch your Ben White next season and we'll watch our Romero......

So is this guy the NEW Chinese Ledley King or wot?
It would have saved at least half a dozen coronaries on this site.
And if Sanchez gets shipped out, you'd assume we'll be getting one.
No one on here
United went with the bigger name in Varane.
Chelsea want Kounde who is apparently slightly better than Romero.
City dont need a CB
Liverpool got Konate but arguably they could have gone in for him given their CB problems.
Woolwich have even less pull than us.
Leicester are shite.
I guess it's a matter of priority. Our biggest issue is at CB so we are willing to spend the bulk of our transfer kitty to get in a top player. I guess our rivals have prioritised other areas.
All European teams except PSG are broke and they went for Ramos so I think it's just good timing for us.
Spot on.
It’s important to remember that in normal economic climate, we’d have no chance to sign Romero.
He’d have been tapped up by Messi and signed for Barcelona. We have one window where we have huge leverage over European clubs. We have to use it.
I do worry about his ability on the ball.
By all accounts he's super aggressive and should add some bollocks and organisation to our defence but what can he do in possession? Apparently quite a good passer but he's not a Vertonghen-esque dribbler so hopefully we can give him a good partner to work with.

He must be good, Man U were preparing to bid up to 42m euros for him up until he picked up his second knee injury in June on international duty ... that's when they backed out and went for Varane instead, leaving the path clear for us!
You say that like that would be a bad thing...
