Romero deserves better than spurs. He’s way too good for them. Honestly the fact that he got top 4 with dier and Davies is more impressive than the World Cup win.
Nuestra mejor defensa. Los Campeones del Mundo Lisandro Martínez, Cuti Romero, Nicolás Otamendi fueron los que dieron alegría a nuestro país, junto con sus compañeros. Gracias campeones ⚽⚽⚽
Weird how Argentina let Otamendi start, despite the man being well past his prime. He can't run as fast, can't win headers, and he nearly made Argentina lose failing to clear the ball from Muani in last minute. Cristian Romero is solid though, and Lisandro Martinez too. I hope Argentina gets good young defenders in future. Because their midfield and attack is already secured
You don't understand the key role that otamendi has in defense. He orders everything and also defends well. A central defender doesn't need to be fast, leave FIFA please. Romero said he's the best defender he's ever played with.
Proof you only watch the extra time of WC final. Otamendi was solid throughout tournament. Every defender has few bad moments in every tournament. Do you think Materazzi or Ramos are bad defenders because the number of red cards they received? Otamendi played in 3 Copa America finals (2015, 2016, 2021), Argentina conceided zero in those 3 finals. He played in Finalissima , Argentina also had a cleansheet. The 3 games against Brazil with Otamendi on defence, Argentina conceided zero aswell.
Otamendi maneja ambos perfiles para jugar de libero y es el complemento perfecto para licha y/o cuti. Desde q salió de velez se veia categoría. Es un perro de presas, de los necesarios.
