Player Watch Player Watch: Cristian Romero

[Bulletspur]

I knew that one day that hair would cause controversy. It was a hair, waiting to happen

 

[eddiev14]

I think it’s perfectly feasible for him to maintain his aggressive style without doing rash, stupid things like yanking an opponent’s to the deck by his hair.

He’s been so good that it’s easy to forget he’s only 24, with a plenty of development ahead, both as a player and a person.

Cucurella is a massive shit house as well. Loves a flailing arm/elbow on occasion and was a complete pro at it at Getafe. Part of the reason I think Chelsea have got such a great player.

So, it's all fun and games for the both of them really.

 

[Pochemon94]

We can never forget Lamela...

He walked so Cuti could run..... and absolutely become the most hated man in the league. My man u supporting friend texted me saying that Cuti is a grade A C**T, I said yes, but hes our C**T. He still hasn't let go of that man screaming in harry maguires face post OG hahhahah

exactly this, right after they VAR review was over, Cucurella immediately turned around and didn't seem mad just got on with the match

Outside of the hair pull it was probably one of his worst games in a spurs shirt so far (there haven’t been many bad ones and he is amazing). He got caught out of position a few times. Was sloppy in possession and just didn’t win the 50/50’s the way he normally would.

That's because they were winning. Didn't last long though....

 

[arunspurs]

Rudiger & Romero are identical in their on-pitch attitude.
Opponents & rivals will hate them for their shithousery but at the same time, same rival fans also know that both are great defenders.

Romero doesnt need to tone anything down, as long he is top of his game.

 

[journeyman]

Needs to be careful in the next couple of games they will be watching him like a hawk

I agree with this. He could have seen red for either the two-footed challenge v S’ton or the hair pull y’day. He needs a few games without anything rash now. Going down to 10 would very likely cost us points.

 

[McFlash]

Loved that hair yank from Romero on Cucaracist, pay back for the snidey studs into the knee from early in the game. Romero keeps the receipts ?

I agree on this but why "Cucaracist"?
Does he have some history that I haven't heard about?

 

[crokey]

The last player with a horrible streak that we mellowed out was a young Dele Alli. Let's not make that mistake again.

when he was at getafe he allegedly called eder militao a monkey. He says he said pico polo which i guess means shut your fucking mouth, but mico means monkey.

Marc Cucurella Denies Calling Real Madrid's Eder Militao a 'F--king Monkey'

Marc Cucurella has denied calling Real Madrid centre-back Eder Militao a "f--king monkey" during Getafe's 3-0 loss to Los Blancos on Saturday in La Liga...

I'm glad he did it, put that little shit in his place. It's a hair pull, not a two footed tackle on someone's knee ligaments. People overreacting imo

 

[Tonio]

My favourite spurs player at the moment. Love him.

 

[0-Tibsy-0]

I hope Romero is fit and available for our next game after Cucurellas hair aggressively attacked his hand.

 

[KingKay]

Absolute animal, love him.

 

[EastUpperDK82]

Put your hand in that curly hair. Of course your will get a little bit stuck. VAR got it right. Cucurella should rather get his hair cut than complain.

At my former job people with long hair had to wear safety hair nets so it didn't get stuck in the machines ?‍ ... it was a rule and it made perfect sense ??? ... Cuti is a machine.

(Maybe Cucurella could borrow Cech's protective helmet. That would look awesome. Like an asparagus)

Cuti just retweeted this:

 

[NickHSpurs]

It’s so important to have someone like him in a team with genuine ambitions to disrupt the top sides. There’s a reason the successful sides of the past were lead by the likes of Keane, Vieria and Terry, they were horrible ****s but you need one or two of them who will set the tone for everyone else and fight for the shirt.
