On the eighth date, it is the first time that Tottenham Hotspur leads the Premier League standings. With eight games played, one more than Manchester City, the second with 18 points, those led by Ange Postecoglou They have 20 points after the last victory against Luton City by the minimum with a goal from Micky Van de Ven. Cristian “Cuti” Romero was once again a starter, he was one of the best and once again he received praise from his coach.
Giovani Lo Celso and Alejo Véliz, the other Argentines who started from the substitute bench and in the last minutes the forward entered, as he did last weekend. Postecoglou, after the game and at a press conference, was in charge of speaking well of Romero and classifies him as one of the best center backs.
Postecoglou’s praise for Romero
“¿Messi said that Cuti Romero is the best defender in the world? He is a great judgePostecoglou began by saying, who then spoke in more detail: “Romero is an exceptional defender, someone you want on your team. ridiculous bravery“.
“The defense is having a great season, and a big part of that is because of Romero. Everyone else on the defensive line is in their first Premier League season, and having a world champion alongside them is incredible.. He makes them feel that they belong and that they can grow,” said Postecoglou. So much so that the defensive solidity of the Spurs shows that they have only eight goals against in eight matches.
Véliz’s minutes. And Lo Celso?
Among the players that make up the Argentine National Team, Romero is one of them who is having a fantastic season at the start. Since last season “Cuti” has been an immovable piece at Tottenham. The other Argentines who are in the London club are Véliz, who Postecoglou gives him more minutes and last date he debuted against Arsenal and today he entered in the final minutes.
However, Giovani Lo Celso has been relegated in the previous matches. It is true that the steering wheel comes from a physical ailment But the great preseason he had generated hopes in the coaching staff and the club. For the moment, he had more participation in the first games and at present, Postecoglou opts for other midfielders.
How is Tottenham and Romero’s agenda going?
For the moment and due to the FIFA date, the European leagues will pause and resume action in two weeks. Romero was summoned by Lionel Scaloni for the team, which will play the third and fourth rounds of the South American Qualifiers against Paraguay and Peru.
Then, “Cuti” will return to London where a series of two home games and one away game awaits them. On Monday, October 23, Spurs will host Fulham, who are in twelfth place, while a week later Crystal Palace will be the rival. And at the beginning of November, a more than interesting duel between teams from the “Big Six”, this time, Tottenham vs Chelsea.
