💥Pressure on la U: doubts over Lucas Romero's precision | OneFootball

The recent 3-0 defeat of Universidad de Chile against Universitario de Deportes in Lima not only raised doubts about the team's collective performance but also put the individual performance of the new signings under scrutiny. Journalist Cristián Caamaño was one of the harshest critics, focusing his analysis on the performance of Paraguayan midfielder Lucas Romero.

The Contribution of the "Strong Leg"

During his appearance on Radio Agricultura, Caamaño highlighted that the 23-year-old midfielder offers a tactical variant that the team did not regularly have last season. According to the commentator, Romero brings a "strong leg" and aggression in recovery that are valuable for the defensive scheme. However, this physical intensity was not enough to compensate for the shortcomings shown in ball distribution during the 57 minutes he was on the field.

Urgency of Precision in the Midfield

The journalist's main warning was about the Paraguayan's inaccuracies when organizing the play. Caamaño was blunt in stating that if Romero intends to take on the role of organizer, he must be much more precise in his passes to avoid unnecessary risks in the build-up. The analysis concluded with a call to coach Francisco Meneghini to quickly define the roles in the midfield, especially considering the internal competition with figures like Charles Aránguiz.
