After the game,Ā The SunĀ reported that the Argentine defender reposted on social media a claim from Argentine reporter Gaston Edul that the player was tired in the derby clash as he had landed just five days before the all-important match from international duty after Spurs did not provide a private jet. Postecoglou, however, has now claimed that he had no information about Romero’s fatigue before the game.
