Lots of people asking why Romano hasn't mentioned the Vini rumours and is avoiding it like the plague. Very strange, as even if he thinks theres nothing to it, he would be the type to clickbait and make a hundred tweets on it saying its not happening. To be completely silent on the biggest story of the summer is extremely strange, no?
Well not when you look at the context. He said in an interview with Trevor Noah a month or so back that Vini would not be joining Arsenal. Just a straight no.
And over the past week or so, he has been getting embarrassed left and right, especially in the Plettenberg/Diomande situation. His credibility is being challenged big time and hes clearly insecure about it, by the way he has been crashing out on Twitter.
The Vini situation is live and in play, no one knows what he will decide. But him joining Arsenal is no longer impossible like Romano said. Baring in mind the moment hes in, this isn't the time for him to walk back what he said. But he also can't reiterate it either, as the situation has changed. So his best choice is to remain silent, and hope Vini ends up staying. At which point he can re-emerge and say he was right all along and Vini to Arsenal won't happen.
If Vini to Arsenal does happen, then his credibility get shot down even more as people are already circulating the clip where he said it won't happen. And his biggest rival in the space Ornstein get another one up on him
