Cristian Romero

Not indispensable, can leave if it is on our terms and not in the last minute of the transfer window.

Decent player when he is on it, but not consistent enough.
 
very disappointing. whilst we all hate Levy, to drop that on the day of TF announcement is really poor form (no dingdongheads rule remember).

Vice Captain...
Interestingly Micky also questioned the sacking, saying it didn’t make sense yet that hasn’t seen to been picked up anywhere near as much as Romero’s (if at all).
Ultimately, if that’s how they feel right now, does it matter? Providing they still put it all on the pitch then their entitled to question things, and opinions change over time so it’s up to the new boss to win them over with his plans/vision
 
He's a clam mate, our clam mind you, but all the same.

He could take that stance if he turned up every game and demanded a performance every game. He had a very mediocre season until final rounds of EL then showed what an elite level defender he can be, similarly he can be an absolute monster for Argentina.

If he wants to hold Spurs to some standard, he needs to do the same with himself, I have no doubt he loves Ange, they all do, because the guy gave them a free ride to lose 22 games.

We will be a weaker side if he moves on, but if he doesn't want to be here, let someone pony up the cash for him, and move on.
I feel like I get to a place where I’m like ‘we’re all pretty fair minded people here’ and then I read something like ‘he gave them a free pass to lose 22 games’ as if that’s why a World Cup winner with a clear winning mentality likes a particular manager. And it makes me want to pull my hair out. The disrespect, alongside the idea that we were just rolling in trophies, especially European trophies, before last month.

It might be something to do with the fact that this particular manager promised that these players would be trophy winners with this club, and then made it happen. That might be why this player likes this manager.

I agree he had underperfermoed at times in the league. Mostly to do with individual moments, lapses of concentration.

I guess part of the question is did we lose however many games we did with him in the team (fewer than 22) in part because he wasn't demanding enough of himself or others. I'm not so sure.

I'll gladly admit that I rate Romero higher than most. But when I watch him play I see someone consistently taking responsibility, playing with bravery, demanding a lot from himself. His in possession game is the most obvious, but not only that.

Another question is can he step up from that less than good enough league season in the right circumstances. Or is it a history likely to repeat itself. I think the former.

There's also the question of experience and leadership. We'll lose Son at some time fairly soon. Imo we need keep the experience and leadership we have and add to it.
