Sergio Romero has made a perfect start to his Old Trafford career.
Two games, two clean sheets and, with David De Gea’s transfer situation yet to be resolved, the Argentine looks set to continue to be Manchester United’s number one until the end of the transfer window at least.
It’d be fair to say not many football fans believed Romero was capable of replacing De Gea, and it’s still a tough task. However, few were unconvinced by the ‘keeper for the same reason as Didi Hamann.
The former Liverpool midfielder thinks Romero isn’t up to the task because he’s Argentinian, and the South American country has produced few top class goalkeepers in the recent past.
In fairness to Hamann, we’re struggling to think of a recent top class Argentine goalkeeper, but that still doesn’t seem reason enough to suggest Romero can’t prove a success at United.
