Showdown Romero: do or not?

I’m tempted to do him, but I already have (all untradables) FB Varane, TOTS Dias, TOTS Saliba, TOTS Van Dijk and PIM Maldini.

Do you think that with upgrade he could be better for all of them? (except for PIM Maldini that is on another level)

I think that the chance that Argentina wins are high, and Romero has a combo of stats that could be perfect if you want to play with an high defensive line

Thougts?

    Is not just another fast cb?

    I’ve done it because I had a large number of Ligue 1 duplicates, Argentina has a good chance of winning and have only red TOTS Dias as PL CB.

    In your case with 3 PL top CB, don’t think it’s worth it as I can’t see him being better than those options, even with the upgrade.

    He is the only one with acceleration better than sprint speed, combined with great agility and balance combo..

    In case of +2 he could be pretty unique

    If he was on the market probably I would have pass, but I have too a large number of dupes..
    I already completed both Verratti and Showdown Emerson Palmieri but my transfer list is still plenty

    I will honestly keep my fodder for the Ligue 1 upgrade packs, due to come shortly, as even though it’s a gamble, it can get you some unexpected returns.

    Used him for a few games in a back 3 next to TOTS Dias and PIM Vieira and so far like him he feels fast and good positioning

    Hard to say when only playing a few games with him but Romero feels a little more agile but obviously he won't have the strength as Dias but Romero did often come flying out of nowhere aggressively to win the ball back with clean tackles.

    Ive done him cause I was stuck with a dupe Payet. Haven’t played yet, but comparing his stats with Tots Dias or Süle he doesn’t look worse even without the upgrade tbh. Not able to test him for another week so curious…

    I know Italy has struggled to beat Argentina but am I the only one thinking they finally get around to it?

    I mean looking at the available players for each squad I would give Argentina the edge there but I think it’s going to be tight either way.

    BOL because I’m assuming you want Argentina to win as much as I want Italy to!

    I used his IF months ago and do know how to use the card . Trying this card and i must say i have enjoyed the card over Rudi and TOTS Virgil. pairing him with Dias TOTY . If Argentina wins the card would by 99 everything

    Been using for PL Swaps and he’s very good. An agile bulldozer.

    Not really his card if he gets a plus 2 will look insane he actually feels really good in-game aswell

    Similar to flashback Gomez for quarter of the price

    Look at all the available CBs.. And Gomez has that special sauce. Romero has not
