Tottenham star Cristian Romero talks about improving his discipline

Tottenham defender Cristian Romero has acknowledged the need to address his disciplinary record, revealing his efforts to reduce the number of cards he receives during matches.

With four red cards and 28 yellow cards in 83 appearances for Spurs, Romero recognizes the importance of improving his discipline to avoid costly suspensions and setbacks for the team. The impact of Romero’s disciplinary issues was evident in the 4-1 defeat to Chelsea in November, where his sending-off proved detrimental to Tottenham’s performance and results in subsequent matches.

Ange Postecoglou’s side struggled to secure victories during Romero’s suspension, highlighting the significance of his presence on the field and the consequences of his absence. Acknowledging the need for improvement, Romero expressed his commitment to addressing this aspect of his game, recognizing the importance of maintaining discipline to contribute effectively to the team’s success.

Here is what the 25-year-old Argentine international had to say on the same in conversation with The Express:

“I know it is an aspect of my game I need to work on and polish up a bit and improve,”

“I was aware that I was picking up too many cards so I set out to work on it.”

“Maybe it is down to my style of play, on many occasions protesting too much for clashing with someone, so in situations like this I think I’ve improved a great deal.”

Discipline is key!

Romero’s determination to refine his discipline surely reflects his understanding of the impact his actions have on the team’s fortunes. By prioritising discipline and making a concerted effort to reduce the frequency of his bookings, Cuti certainly aims to enhance his contribution to Tottenham’s defensive efforts and minimize disruptions caused by suspensions.

As he continues to lead the team in the absence of Heung-min Son [who shall soon return to action from international duty], Romero’s focus on improving his discipline sets a positive example for his teammates and underscores his commitment to the collective success of the squad.

By addressing this aspect of his game, Romero aims to play a more consistent and influential role in Tottenham’s pursuit of their objectives in the Premier League and other competitions. He is by far distance, the best defender in the team and a natural leader. Having him contribute for as many games as possible will only help the team’s cause and Cuti not playing will not be ideal for either party.
