Does anyone still rate Romero?

He's a World Cup-winner and 2-time Copa America-winner.

He's been at the heart of an Argentina team that's barely lost a game for 5 years and won 3-straight major titles.

He's literally your best player imo.

Is he fack. He is the most overrated defender iv ever seen at the club (and that's saying something).

But I don't blame him today. It's on Ange. The way Ange sets up breeds inconsistency. He plays one way only which is great when it works and appalling when it doesn't. There is no middle ground. No way to grind things out. That in itself will be inconsistent.

Levy wanted attractive football and decided on Ange to provide it, at all costs. Even results.

How much of it is down to our defenders being rubbish and how much is our manager not focusing on the defensive side of things? I imagine some of the leagues he's managed in you can get away with the "we'll score more than you" approach. You cannot in the PL.

Talking of Welbeck, Man Utd could do with all the ex players that can score like McTominay, Welbeck and Greenwood.😂 McTominay twice scored inside a minute of playing and both times seconds in.😂 I was desperate since start of last season for McTominay to be our striker. We sell him instead. Basically McTominay finished like Kane and we got rid of him lol.

Romero reminds me of Rojo. Seems always on the risk of a red card or clumsy moment.👍

I watched the first half and Welbeck could easily scored 2.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Romero made Welbeck look like a prime Gerd Muller today.

Hopefully Spurs will be able to rinse Real or even Man U, and we can get rid of him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If Real put a bid in for Romero.......they would be rating him a ton higher than you do....You think you knw more than Real Madrid ...

Argentina best player is the goalkeeper Martinez. He made 9 saves in the Copa Final.

We’ve also flogged the only player you’d think could help us switch to a more conservative approach in Hojbjerg. He probably didn’t turn to the bench because our entire squad now is made up of players that can only play one way.

We’re never going to get anywhere unless we address the issue at hand. Ange seems to refuse to believe that defensively we’re easy to play through which is mad. The whole world is saying one thing and he’s saying another. Generally speaking, if you have an opinion that isn’t shared by anyone else, you’re probably wrong.

Being headstrong is only good when things are working. When they’re not, it just makes you look like an ignorant pricccck to be fair.

Fridge the defending was shocking today. Brighton didn't really have to be any good. All they had to do was capitalize on Spurs awful defending.

Spurs should have won that game at a canter, if they actually had defenders that can defend. As soon as Udogie made the mistake for the first goal, the writing was on the wall. The defence just collapses at any sign of a bit of pressure.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Before today, we had the second best defence in the league.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The only metric that measures that is goals conceded but I just wonder how many opposition chances are being squandered. That’s the truest reflection of our defence and the eye test suggests we’ve been extremely lucky that teams aren’t really massively taking advantage of just how open we are.

Fridge is absolutely correct.
Sandy is a blind as a bat.
Yes, Udogie did make a mistake for the first goal.
But we have a manager who insists on playing a defense that consists of exactly two center backs, Romero and VDV.
Porro and Udogie are usually up field too far to defend the obvious long ball up field.
So its easy to split our only two defenders and get a goal scoring chance.
As long as Aussieglue continues to be a one trick pony we will be lucky to win games against good teams.
Sandy can continue to blame whatever player is on the pitch but its the faaccking manager that's to blame. Period..

Does anyone continue to rate Romero?
Yes, all the Spurs players do. He's their go-to man for getting the ball passed up field.
Yes, the manager does,...he's on the pitch a full 90 minutes.
Yes, I do...he's the best damned player Spurs has.
