Tottenham captain Cristian Romero has taken a swipe at Gary Neville for the comments that the pundit made about him ahead of England’s World Cup semifinal clash against Argentina.Romero and Argentina are now just one step away from retaining the title they won in Qatar four years ago after overcoming England in the semifinal.The Albiceleste have made it a habit of coming from behind to win at this World Cup, and that is what they did again on Wednesday, with the Three Lions having no answers to what the South American side threw at them in the final 25 minutes of the game.The Tottenham captain has now thrown a barb at Neville and the English media after breaking English hearts in Atlanta.Credit: @thefrederikkejensen / InstagramTottenham star Cristian Romero thanks Gary Neville for providing extra motivationAfter Argentina’s dramatic 3-2 win over Egypt in the round of 16, Neville labelled Romero and Lisandro Martinez as the ‘best worst centre-backs in the world’.The pundit was referring to the pair’s tendency to concede cheap goals but was also praising their ability to make decisive contributions at the other end of the pitch.However, those comments were clearly not well received by the Tottenham man, who called out Neville’s comments.Romero said following Argentina’s semifinal win over England (via Fabrizio Romano): “Lisandro and I, we were on fire before the game because of what Gary Neville said. In England, they love to speak before. We send him a big hug… I hope I’ll not be like him when I retire. I will not criticise players.”Romero has likely played his last game for SpursWhile Romero has been outstanding again for Argentina on the biggest stage, some Spurs fans have once again been left wondering why the centre-back does not show the same application, consistency and passion when he puts on a Tottenham shirt.Spurs have put their captain on the shop window this summer after adding Marcos Senesi and Jan Paul van Hecke to their squad earlier this summer.If the Argentine does leave as expected before the start of next season, there will always be a feeling of ‘what if’ over his Tottenham career, with the 28-year-old failing to consistently hit the levels that he is capable of during his six years at the club.READ MORE: What De Zerbi has told Djed Spence about his Tottenham future amid £25m rumoursThe post Tottenham’s Cristian Romero takes swipe at Gary Neville after ‘best worst’ comment appeared first on Spurs Web.
