Romero in Argentina on relegation Sunday

If you strip away the noise, the issue is simple: a captain is supposed to be the one player whose presence matters most when the pressure is highest, and this is the exact opposite of that. You can argue about contracts, future transfers, personal motives, all of it, but none of that changes how bad it looks to the supporters who have to sit through the consequences. Spurs have had enough problems without their skipper turning into a symbol of the mess, and now every decision around him is going to be judged through this lens. It is the kind of thing that snowballs because once fans feel abandoned they do not forget it, and they definitely do not forgive it easily, and honestly I do not blame them one bit because this is beyond poor and it is just maddening
 
its not even just about the match itself its about what it says to everyone else at the club when the captain can just be elsewhere and nobody seems able to stop it and then people wonder why standards drop and why fans are sick of being told to be patient
