No I conclude Romero isn't. He has been rating lower than Dier or is not our highest rated CB in games.
I've said my piece, now let's observe. You can participate by rating and be part of the measuring of performance. Maybe help us see the good and bad. With Spursplay its a lot easier now, especially with the rewind function.
Ratings are not quite as random as you may think. Newspapers, websites both Spurs and neutral, forum posters all tend to be fairly balanced and regular. Sometimes I include more papers if I can get hold of them via the net.
Yeah that's if he's not breaking Covid rules, late back from international duty, injured or suspended.
I want him to be more professional in his behaviour too by not pulling opponents to the ground by their hair in the penalty box or laughing in the faces of opposition CBs when we score.
What has Japh got to do with any of this then......?
You began suggesting that a shift would see Japh prove to be the prevalent player.
(....And just in case you jump to such a conclusion; I'm not some entrenched Romero super-fan. I've openly critiqued him this season, but the broader narrative you began dabbling with is/was wacky to put it mildly.)
You've literally just described random.... It's a mish-mash of whatever you cobble together from week to week. Even the notion of "neutral" and unbiased is highly dubious.
I'm not knocking it if that's how you want to spend your time; but you referencing it as some credible source of player performance data is folly..... It's a curiosity at best.
It can only become more credible with input from knowledgeable contributors like yourself. When there are glaring differences between ratings it asks questions....who's right and why ? Have the majority missed something ?
Not at all. Just trying to drum up opinion and discussion.Questions that will never be answered by a compiled average; for that is all that this amounts to.
I'm trying awfully hard not to offend you, but you seem to have an misguidedly grandiose impression about your spreadsheet.
He was the first Argentina player back from the WC.Yeah that's if he's not breaking Covid rules, late back from international duty, injured or suspended.

Who’s ratings?Against Fulham Dier rated over 0.50 higher on the combined average and not far off a full point by forum posters. That's Dier the Donkey v World class Romero !!

You obviously have an agenda, not worth continuing this debate.
You can look back to see the forum poster ratings on the thread. The media Web ones are usually Evening Std, Times, Sky, Football London, Spurs Web, other newspapers when accessible via YouTubes Spurs in the Media report.
Japhet did not play enough games to feature in the mid season ratings review. But neither did Romero having played 10 games out of 22. I cut off at 11 . Romero averaged 6.20 across his 10 games which is down from 6.58 for last season.
In comparison Hojbjerg averaged 6.60 over 20 games which is commendable.
Swear that's what this is all about... or some overly elaborate trolling.Questions that will never be answered by a compiled average; for that is all that this amounts to.
