Cristian Romero

Romero would’ve got a straight red from the ref had he made the foul on Doku that Keane did for Evefton against City. Had the ref not red carded him then VAR would’ve sent him to the monitor.

That’s fair but when has he not been a bit of a liability under whoever has been in charge. Don’t doubt his ability but his mentality is very questionable. I completely get his frustrations and social media posts that dog the club out, after all he’s not said anything that most disagree with.

However his on the field antics don’t always fill me with confidence, he is rash and doesn’t always focus. His ability however is not in question here. I just think he’s a bit decisive and doesn’t lead by example all the time. Danso is so much more composed and is performing better on the pitch.

Danso plays within his limitations, Romero can/will do anything.

In a relegation battle when you are asking your defenders to stay compact, put their bodies on the line, mop up every ball in the air or second ball, Danso is a better fit (and it's showing)

In a team playing its best, dominating games and asking the defenders to contribute to the attack/passing, Romero is a step above.

I agree but when you way it up you have one player in Danso who is reliable, rarely messes up and is limited in his ability outside of being a good defender. On the other hand you have an elite defender who is liable to cost you a goal and equally get sent off, or set up or score a goal. Risk over reward.

I’d argue why take the risk? He breaks up the relationship with VDV by either being injured or being suspended. Danso is competent and reliable. But yes of course he will need competition.

Furthermore I think Romero is quite a decisive character and doesn’t set the right tone for captain, especially when he’s injured one week and then on a flight to play a friendly for Argentina.

We can get good money for him and is replaceable.

Romero was absolute quality and dependable under Ange. He needs a strong figure to keep him in check…like, say, RDZ.

However, if the Senesi rumors are to be believed, then it would make sense to move him on at his prime age and market value. 60mil, nothing less.

Keep Romero, VDV and that Croatian kid. We have our CBS for the next 5-10 years. Next question

That might be a good option, and maybe an ideal one for some.
However, one could 'question' whether all 3 will still be with us in 10 years time...or even whether they would be in this country.
