"No, I think it is fair to say he doesn't have any intention to get a red card after 28 minutes, the manager stated (quotes via Guardian). Frank emphasised that there is no regret in handing Romero the armband, noting that the player had already apologised to his teammates. There is not any regret in making him captain and also he is sorry for the incident."
"He apologised to his teammates. He is one of the most important players. We haven't spoken specifically about this he apologised: that is enough for me for now. If you look at how many red cards he had, it is not like that he had that many, when you play with passion and aggression. The red card against United added another chapter to the defender's controversial disciplinary record."
Thomas Frank confirmed Cristian Romero will keep the captaincy after receiving a red card 28 minutes into the Manchester United match and defended the defender's character and leadership. Frank said Romero had no intention of getting sent off, expressed no regret in making him captain, and noted that Romero apologised to his teammates. Romero's aggressive, front-footed style brings both passion and disciplinary risk. The dismissal was his sixth across all competitions since joining the club, the most among Premier League players in that period, and forced a tactical reshuffle that hampered the team's performance.
