CHOULO19 24,332 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 But even then. Keep him for one month a season? It's pointless. Might as well recall McEachran for then and loan him back out Mikel can't play every single match especially during the schedule congestion in December. It's still early days, Romeu can still play a part in RDM's plans; same for Sturridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 He might as well go back to La Mastia. We're ruining the boy's potential here..Even though he'd have Busquets, Song, Mascherano and possible J Dos Santos ahead of him? Here he only has Mikel ahead of him. We're not ruining his potential at all, people (not you per se) just have this silly expectation that he'll nurture into a world class DM and that Mikel is holding him back. Garbage I say.

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Even though he'd have Busquets, Song, Mascherano and possible J Dos Santos ahead of him?Here he only has Mikel ahead of him. We're not ruining his potential at all, people (not you per se) just have this silly expectation that he'll nurture into a world class DM and that Mikel is holding him back. Garbage I say.I don't believe that last part at all. But we saw on the back end of last season how sparingly Romeu was used and even this season. Robbie's shown he's willing to rotate players because we've seen appearances from players like Moses & Bertrand. If Romeu was playing regularly like them I'd understand this whole 'he'll get his chance' claim. But he fails to make the bench most the time and we ask where the hell he's disappeared too.And remember, we play 4-2-3-1 so Romeu could play alongside Mikel. We've seen Ramires play in that position as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Mikel OBE 4,920 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Should have probably kept his mouth shut about the referee incident.... YuriZhirkov, Bosnian Blue and xPetrCechx 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 We're in trouble if we have to rely on him when Mikel goes to ACON in January. What wrong did he do exactly? He was taken off for tactical reasons, not because his performance was bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Think it may take him awhile to shake off his rustiness before getting into full flight in the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Needs to improve back to previous standards. Then come January he will be a good replacement for Mikel when hes at ACON or we could use the old Mikels injured and cant go trick...

Ollie 4,400 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 He'll only go up a level if he plays more so him replacing Mikel when the ACON is going on will be good for him. He wants to get chances, he's gotta take em. I think Lampard will play though instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskoviolente 425 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Nothing wrong with his performance today I thouhgt. What do people expect from this young boy ? He hasn´t started a match in ages and now gets the nod, of course it´s gonna take a while until he is back to his - promising - best.

Bosnian Blue 2,471 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Mikel should have gone out for Rami, I thought Oriol was better today. Considering the amount of playing time he's had lately (including the second part of last season) no wonder he needs some time to catch up. But it's not like he has lost it like the other Spaniard..

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 ^^I actually agree for yesterday's match Oriol should have stayed. His one touch passing, although risky, could have speeded our midfield up. Our team looked completely off the pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Well take that as great chance for Romeu to surprise. He is good player and with Mikel gone in jan, he will show how good he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueJewel 56 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 He'll come good, he just needs more playing time, I thought he did quite well against Swansea. Romeu'll be more than adequate replacement for Mikel when he's out on International duty. The first choice central midfield partnership though is likely to be Lamps and Ramires. Chalobah would have returned from his loan deal with Watford and the two would be back-up for the first choice central midfield pairing.

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Forgotten Chelsea star Oriol Romeu could be close to a Stamford Bridge exit, after a Valencian paper published details of a meeting between his agent and the Spanish club at their headquarters over the weekend.The Chelsea midfielder's advisor, Magico Diaz, was pictured entering the Los Che office by Superdeporte, and the paper revealed he spent more than an hour in the offices speaking with Valencia sporting director Braulio Vazquez.It is believed Valencia are looking to arrange a loan deal for the 21-year-old with the option to buy, and it is expected that any potential move would be completed in January.Romeu is thought to be unhappy with his lack of appearances under Roberto Di Matteo, playing only four times in all competitions this season.Valencia's interest in the youngster is nothing new, as it's thought the La Liga side attempted to sign him prior to his switch to Chelsea in 2011. Reports of a renewed interest in the midfielder emerged last summer.http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-news/football/premier-league/transfer-rumours/121112/valencia-meet-chelsea-midfielders-agent-ahead-winter-move-18So Valencia are going to look to try loan him with an option to buy... again...
