Romero boasts a stable defense this season, led by newcomer Mickey van der Pen. He also had the stigma of being a ‘card collector’ due to unnecessary tackles, but that disappeared this season.
Romero competes with Douglas Luiz (Aston Villa), Brian Mbemo (Brentford), Pedro Neto (Wolverhampton), Declan Rice (Arsenal) and Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) for the ‘Player of the Month’ award.
Director Postekoglou also gave praise. He said at a press conference against Chelsea on the 2nd: “Romero will have been disappointed with the way Tottenham did last year, but he ended up winning the World Cup. I think he is a fantastic, outstanding defender. He has a really strong character and is a leader in everything he does. “They have the mentality of a true winner. Guglielmo Vicario, Van de Pen and Destiny Udozi have just joined. Pedro Foro is in his second year, but it is his first year in the position. Romero is leading them. I feel secure with him.” praised. Tottenham will play the 11th round of the EPL against Chelsea at 5 am on the 7th.
Meanwhile, Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton), who is on a peak goal parade, was nominated for October’s goal for his goal to tie the game against Newcastle. On the 29th of last month, in the 10th round of the EPL against Newcastle, in the 26th minute of the second half when the team was trailing 1-2, Hwang Hee-chan beat a defender inside the penalty area and hit the net with a left-footed shot.
Wolverhampton drew 2-2 with Newcastle thanks to Hwang Hee-chan’s goal. Hwang Hee-chan currently has 6 goals and is tied for 5th place in EPL scoring.
Candidates for ‘Goal of the Month’ include Hwang Hee-chan, Diogo Dalot (Man Utd), Mbomo, and Jakob Brun Larsen (Burnley). Reporter Kim Seong-won [email protected]
