Player Cristian Romero

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Honestly though bad as this is I think I side with Romero over our board and management. Whatever has gone on between the two parties, I do not believe it’s Romero solely in the wrong.

Oh do fuck off with your thick as fuck opinions.

You can (rightly) blame the board for a hell of a lot of things, but it’s not hard to see that Romero as club fucking captain, should be sticking with the squad for one of the biggest games in our history.

He’s a rat. Blacklist him from ever entering the UK again. Government watchlist for the disloyal turd.

2 things can be true, he's a cunt but the board are spineless and weak, no other club allows their captain to fuck off at a moment like this, the same club who handed him a massive pay rise and a new contract and the fuckng captaincy after publicly criticising the board on social media on many occasions. They've let him get away with so much since he's been at the club...we have absolutely 0 leadership at the top which has manifested this rotten culture.
 
My only concern there is that by making a big deal out of it, any potential suiters probably see that as 'unrest' and hence an opportunity to get him £10m cheaper than they were prepared to pay yesterday...

I say let's just get the season done with as little further Romero-related drama as possible, then sell him to the highest bidder, and honestly it really would be good riddance. Hopefully Vuscovic comes in and turns out to be an upgrade, win-win! :)
Agree! Show him the respect he has shown us. Next season if we are struggling to get 60m+ for him, put him training with the youth team and let him ride his contract out in frustration.

Of course we can't afford to do this but how pleasing it would be if we could. Having this player around the first team, worse still, on the pitch will only create negativity imo.

Yeah I did say the board are also culpable for a lot…including what you just said.

So I completely agree.
 
I thought this was a wind up, surely nobody could stoop so low.
Whether or not this was sanctioned by De Zerbi because Romero is such a cunt he wants him gone, the optics are horrific.
I've defended him a bit but no way is that tolerated. It's just madness, I don't recall hearing anything quite as ridiculous and yet the club have not done anything. It's sickening actually. Great preparation for our biggest ever game ffs.
 
Nailed right here my friend.

Ever time our best players want out, our fans en-masse turn on the player himself instead of targeting their vitriol at the reasons they're always so desperate for the exit door.

It's why the club never progresses.

Bro, seriously.

He has been one of the best-paid players at the club for years - paid very, very, very well indeed.

No one forced him to be here - he doesnt care about you.

He doesnt care about the future of the club he is no better than the people you despise

They paid him a shit tonne of money - he regularly underperforms, puts country before club and now isn't even going to be there to support his team mates on one of the most pivotal games in our recent history.

He is clearly a man-child.

ENIC keep making noises that they're better than Levy etc.
Levy would have forced the coach to keep AND PLAY an asset that we couldn't sell for his perceived value.
What do Man United and Chelsea do? Just tell the player to f off or they're not in the squad.
And they do it.
That would be a noticeable change in behaviour by us if it happens.
 
Not even a question.

I think he even has a River tattoo.
 
Strip the captaincy give it to Maddisson. Cunt is an utter disgrace and part of the culture that is inherently wrong with in the club. Don't let the door hit you on the way out cunt. Some of us have said for quite some time he treats us with distain and contempt and like an afterthought. Good riddance.
Are we gonna sub him off after the Handshake and coin toss, then bring him back on in the 65th minute??

But yes, in all honesty, I think Madders has been unofficially Captaining the team from the sidelines all the time since we saw him back on the bench... !!
 
Fucking rat - sold asap. Pretty representative of the issues with our players at this club - underperforming, spoilt fucking pricks.
