Report: There is excitement at Spurs about what Postecoglou could do with 25-year-old
The Athletic have revealed that some at Tottenham are excited to see how Cristian Romero can evolve as a player under Ange Postecoglou’s tutelage.
The article analyses the Spurs squad to see which players would fit into Postecoglou’s style of play.
When it comes to centre-backs, it is explained that the new Tottenham head coach will not just expect them to be good on the ball but will also demand that they be brave and willing to take risks.
In addition, it is revealed that the 57-year-old always plays with a high defensive line and he even got rid of the hugely-respected centre-back Yuji Nakazawa at Yokohama due to his lack of recovery pace.
Some at Spurs think Romero will thrive next season
The Athletic state that some at Tottenham feel that Romero has the characteristics to thrive in Postecoglpu’s system, given how confident he is on the ball and his willingness to take risks.
The Argentine’s swiftness in reading the game is also expected to help the side in their counter-pressing and ball recoveries.
The report asserts that there is hope at Spurs that following a mixed season for Romero in 2022-23, Postecoglou can help the centre-back find some consistency.

The aggression and confidence with which Romero plays both on and off the ball, pretty much embodies what Postecoglou expects from his players.
So, one can see why many at Tottenham expect the Argentine to thrive under the Australian.
However, like every other player, the 25-year-old will have a steep learning curve and will likely make some mistakes at the start of the season.
Spurs fans need to be patient and allow time for things to click into gear.
