People are in absolute dismay. This complete deal has been a waste of everyones time.
Gonzalo Montiel bagged the final penalty in that WC final - what does that make him today?
Romero is overrated. He is a great distributor. So bang average in every other sporting aspect which is important for a defender. He has been unreliable, uninterested and unavailable.
Need to learn from these mistakes and stay far away from the Argentines from now on.

Friendship ended with Argentina. Now Uruguay is our new South American best friend.
Or possibly Brazil given the relatively recent history with Lucas getting us to the CL final and Emerson's meme and cult figure status.
A mistake from Cristian Romero allowed Cunha to pull one back, but Mac Allister restored Argentina's two-goal advantage before half-time.
Romero is just a liability, even though Argentina won. The guy offers hope. Embodies our whole team.

I saw that face when he conceded due to his mistakes before somewhere...
Seems Atletico Madrid could offer us the chance to get rid of an expensive, injury plagued, erratic player. Don't screw this up Levy.
A good point made on The View From The Lane podcast. Are Real Madrid, a team with a few Brazilians in it, going to sign the world’s biggest Brazil hater? I think they’d be mental to sign him because his availability is shite, but this is another reason for it not to happen. AM looks a lot more likely. Can see him and Simeone being best of buds.
Yeah but wait til Atletico hears how much Levy wants for him...
i still like him
i mean he even slid tackle's vs his son

Yup, I have very little belief in Levy handling this well. But, there are indications Romero wants out so that helps.
I will not miss Cuti one bit, that's for sure.
Though gotta say, he'd earn my respect (well, bits of it) if he did a Conte on the way out, proper two-footing Levy & his gang in public.
But you know that even if he did spill some right home truths, there'd still be plenty out there to defend their baldy daddy & the worst managerial appointment of all time.
Cuti and Simeone are made for each other.
What was going through his mind? Clearly focused on Spurs, Argie fans must be raging.
Romero and Athletico is a marriage made in heaven, or hell Reg.
Tottenham Star Labelled 'Best in the World' After International Display

Cristian Romero Shines on Argentina Duty
‘He had a phenomenal game’
Argentine media were impressed with Romero’s display against Brazil, with La Voz giving him a 9/10 match rating:
“He was having an impressive game, but he got overconfident and gave away a ball early on that made it 2-1. Still, he came back with all his personality. Great game.”
Clarin also hailed the 26-year-old’s performance as ‘phenomenal’ and suggested he may be among the best central defenders in the world:
“El Cuti must be regretting that gross error on Cunha's goal because, apart from that play, he had a phenomenal game, anticipating and initiating several plays. He may be the best first-choice centre back in the world.”
Finally, BolaVip handed Romero a 6/10 rating due to his error that led to Cunha’s first-half goal:
“He made a gross error that led to Matheus Cunha's goal, but he managed to recover and win convincingly in the individual duels.”
Romero has endured a stop-start season at Tottenham and was set back by two injuries before making his return earlier this month.
The Argentinian missed over three months of action and has made just 17 appearances across all competitions, scoring once in just over 1,300 minutes of play.
