CRISTIAN ROMERO appeared to take a dig at Tottenham’s management by asserting that the club “could easily” compete for the title.

Chelsea, who rallied to overcome Tottenham 4-3 on Sunday, was one of the clubs Romero referenced.
The defender had to exit that match just 15 minutes after returning from a toe injury, facing a new issue in his thigh.
The Argentine has voiced his worries about Spurs, indicating that the problems do not lie with the players or the coaching staff.
As reported by talkSPORT, he noted: “Honestly, I would typically avoid making comments, but… Manchester City competes every year, and you can observe how Liverpool strengthens its squad, Chelsea enhances their team, struggles, then enhances again, and now they’re beginning to see the benefits.
“These are the tactics to replicate. We must recognize something isn’t working correctly, and I hope they come to that realization.
“For years, it’s been the same: first, they blame the players, then there are coaching changes, yet the same people remain at fault.
“I hope they identify who the real culprits are, and we can advance because it’s a fantastic club that, with its current structure, could easily contend for the title each season.”
Adding to the pressure on manager Ange Postecoglou, Spurs are currently in 11th place after managing just one victory in five Premier League games.
