Cristian Romero is not happy with Tottenham's current situation. In a recent social media post, the Argentine defender expressed his frustration with the club's travel arrangements and how it affected his performance during their defeat against Arsenal. He was particularly upset that the club did not provide a private jet for his return from international duty, unlike other clubs that prioritize the rest and recovery of their players.
Romero was partially at fault for Tottenham's 1-0 loss to Arsenal, as he was easily outmuscled by Gabriel for the winning goal. However, he believes that his fatigue from the long journey back from international duty played a significant role in his subpar performance. This is in contrast to other clubs who make sure to provide their players with the best travel arrangements to ensure they are well-rested for important matches.
The Argentine defender's frustration was evident as he shared a post from a TV reporter criticizing Tottenham's decision to not provide a private jet for their players. However, Romero later deleted the post and instead shared a message of determination to turn their season around. He thanked the fans for their support and expressed his belief that the team will bounce back from their slow start.
While manager Ange Postecoglou tried to defend his team's poor record in defending set-pieces, former Arsenal striker Ian Wright pointed out that Romero should have done more to contest Gabriel's header. He believed that it was too easy for the Brazilian defender to score and that Romero could have done better in the situation. Football legend Alan Shearer was even more critical, stating that there was only one player who wanted to win the duel and that Romero was too easily shoved off the ball.
Despite the disappointment of losing to their North London rivals, Romero remains optimistic about the future and believes that Tottenham will turn things around. He also expressed his gratitude to the fans for their unwavering support. However, it is clear that the defender and his teammates will need to work harder and address their weaknesses, such as defending set-pieces, if they want to have a successful season.
