He's been injured (missed the World Cup because of it) and did travel on tour.Where is he? He is not on the tour, right?
We need three goalkeepers for if one gets injured for an extended period of time. Grant was brought in so we could send Joel Pereira, Dean Henderson and Kieran O'Hara out on loan to get regular football.No matter how it sounds...if we can command a good fee for him I wouldn't oppose selling him. Grant has been excellent thus far and he could easily step in when needed. We are spoiled with goalkeeping options.
I thought Romero's injury was a small one and he was going to be fit for the second or third Argentina game. Yet, Sampaoli sent him home. Sampaoli also got some criticism for that.He's been injured (missed the World Cup because of it) and did travel on tour.

That is what was said originally but no, it ended up being worse.I thought Romero's injury was a small one and he was going to be fit for the second or third Argentina game. Yet, Sampaoli sent him home. Sampaoli also got some criticism for that.
When he came here he said he wanted #22, maybe LvG didn't understand and thought he wanted #21 and instead gave him #20. Wiki says he's moved to #16, which is weird but my guess is he finally got his hands on #22.Looks like Dalot has been given the #20 squad number for next season.
Seem strange that Romero would switch to another number with #1 and #13 occupied.
Just googled some pictures of him in his previous clubs and it seems like he's had #22 everywhere. Makes sense now.Looks like Dalot has been given the #20 squad number for next season.

Its a strange one. I remember before we got him, he wasnt really a starter. I was suspect of him as well cos he couldnt even hold his t-shirt for the photo correctly upon his signing.Don't understand why a Keeper of his level is happy to waste some of his best years sitting on the bench. He could start for the majority of the teams in the PL.
All round good performance from him yet again. Didn't let us down, even though there were certain people claiming he's a calamity keeper prior to the game.
Yep. One earlier this season, and one a couple of seasons ago. Otherwise he's been far better than you'd expect from somebody who is happy to play second fiddle.In his time at Utd I think he's had two poor games. Other than that he ranges from solid to brilliant.
He's been the ideal backup keeper.
