Since the start of the season, Romero looked more composed than before. But what happened last night? He looked too reckless.

  2. I was at the game and was close to his playing position.

    My take is that after the disallowed son goal, Chelsea figured out our patterns on playing out from the back and got much better at pressing. Romero didn’t have the same passing options, and was successfully closed down a couple of times.

    He got very frustrated which ended in him running up the pitch to play out the ball, got stuck and did the first bad tackle

    It went downhill from there.

    The playing out/pressing thing has happened before but Ange has moved things around to resolve it.

  3. As you and I and everyone knows he always had this in him. It’s kind of a people never really change kind of thing isn’t it

  4. It’s pretty simple, he runs hot. A lot of players do.

    You can control it but you’ll never become some full zen mode fella.

  5. It should have been 5, after the Cucurella hair pulling incident. He’s one of those people – he likes hurting people, and when he spots opportunities to do so, he just can’t pass them up.

  6. He is still the same, people are just overeacting instantly if something good or bad happens. Lingard scores two goals, suddenly he is great talent finally fullfilling his potential. Haaland missing two goalscoring oportunities, suddenly he is losing his mojo and might have worse season as usual.

    People usually dont change, especially if they are known for their play style. Romero, Rojo, Martinez. Same country, same style, same mistakes. Very good and emotional players who are using too much force in situation that does not demand such thing. Getting a lot of yellow or red cards, doing some horrible mistakes, but overall solid players that are just lacking something. Usually mentality and some height.

  7. I love his intensity but he’s itching to go studs up every game lol

  8. People praised this guy over the years but I’ve never seen the hype. Everything good he can do is tarnished when he makes rash reckless tackles. His attitude annoys me so much because it shows he’s not interested in being mature on the pitch. If Spurs don’t mount a title challenge or even lose out on top 4 I have no doubt in my mind he’ll be one of the main reasons.

  12. He’s a nasty bastard this isn’t the first, second or third time he’s done something like this,its just the type of person he is. Oh and spurs love to bottle it against Chelsea this game was very familiar to battle of the bridge.

  14. He was always like this. He just got away with it too much that he thought he could do it continuously. That’s why he didn’t stop after getting away with the first one. Because he’s always got away with it.
