Oriol Romeu

1 possible blessing in disguise from this injury - less chance of Barcelona using the buy-back clause which I believe will expire after next season(?).

If there really ever was one. AVB contested that multiple times and he probably has read that contract once or twice. Anyway, as soon as Barca believe there was a buy back clause, I am fine with Romeu developing to a world class DM here.

Fantastic news, though I will stick with my previous opinion and say he shouldn't play again this season. Maybe he could play a part in the Man City friendlies or the last game of the season againt Everton if everything is settled by then but definitely not in tomorrow's game or the Europa League final.

if we win tomorrow i dont see any harm in playing him against Villa. He seems desperate to get back playing again.

Now simply for viewing pleasure. He was around 20 years old in these videos here. Please, find me a single 20 year old on the continent who plays this position as well as he demonstrates below. Constantly getting the ball forward, winning the ball back, and feeling happy to receive the ball.

I can't but i'll tell you of an 18 year old....CHALOBAHHHHHHHHHHH!!! :D

What do you think will happen to him next season? I really hope that Jose will give him a look in since he is such a classy player. Although with issues like the Barca connection he will probably either sell him or push him aside for the likes of Essien in the pecking order.

I can't see him returning to Barca to be honest Sam. If Thiago is getting upset and at the lack of playing time there and he is deemed as a far more accomplished talent than Oriol then why would Romeu want to return playing 3rd or 4th fiddle in Spain. In a weird sense of irony, Romeu's injury couldn't have come at a better time for us even though it did leave us short in that department. Romeu is clearly rated highly by our club and was starting to cement a spot in the team just before the injury. If he wasn't injured then he would have been showcasing his talent under the watchful eye of the Catalonian's and they could have been pushed to drag him back. I hope Mourinho uses him often because he is top DM in my opinion.
