Cristian Romero has been named in the EA FC Team of the Week following his exploits against Luton Town last time out in the Premier League.
While earning a clean sheet against a newly promoted side would normally be nothing to shout about, Romero was put under increased pressure following Yves Bissouma’s red card just before half-time.
Spurs managed to grab a goal at the start of the second 45 through Romero’s partner in crime, Micky Van de Ven, before defending their hearts out for the remainder of the game.

Cristian Romero named in EA FC Team of the Week
Romero walked away with all three points for his side and another clean sheet, with a Team of the Week card to top it all off.
The Argentine World Cup winner was given an 82-rated card at the start of the game, but that has now increased to an 84, including an 86 rating for defending and 84 for physical.

Spurs Web Opinion:
EA FC would have based their ratings on last season, which is why Romero wasn’t at least an 84 to start with. Matched up against the other centre-backs in the league, I think the Spurs star should be pretty close to the front of the pack in terms of rating now.
