‘He doesn’t care’ – Journalist says Spurs star is like Erik Lamela in training – Spurs Web – Tottenham Hotspur Football News.Alasdair Gold has revealed that Cristian Romero does not hesitate to launch himself into tackles during training.While Romero has always had the makings of a world-class centre-back, there were doubts about his composure during his first few seasons at Tottenham.Now that the Argentine has been given greater leadership responsibility, and Ange Postecoglou has named him vice-captain, there are signs that he is managing to better channel his aggression without crossing the line.

Cristian Romero is in training just like Erik LamelaGold confirmed the Australian’s words, revealing that the central defender has taken over from Erik Lamela by being a thorn in the side of his teammates in training.The journalist said on his YouTube channel: “They hated training against Lamela. They all had to wear shin guards and things like that. I have the impression that Romero isdifferent.“I saw Romero training. I saw him come in. He does not care. He’s just a little angry when it comes to football, even though he hasn’t committed a single foul yet.”Stimulates web opinionThis certainly wouldn’t be a surprise to Spurs fans as what you see is what you get with Romero. The decision to entrust him with the role of vice-captain seems like a masterstroke from Postecoglou because it forces the central defender to take on more responsibility instead of letting himself be carried away by emotions.
