It’s at Antonio Conte He is a key piece in his scheme with three center backs (Eric Dier and Ben Davies are his teammates). However, the Italian coach will not be able to use it, at least, in the next Premier League match against Wolverhampton.
“Cristian had a small problem in the final part of the match against Chelsea, fortunately it is small. After the game, he started to feel some pain in his adductor. We checked and honestly the player told us that he wants to be available, but on these occasions, when we have so many games ahead of us, it would be foolish of us to take that riskConte explained at the press conference, adding: “This is why he will not be available to face the Wolves”.
Cuti Romero had a special duel against Chelsea last weekend, as everything happened: he was firm in some cuts, participatory in individual duels and, also, he participated in some crossings with Kai Havertz and Marc Cucurellawho pulled her hair in one of the last plays of the match when they were waiting for a corner in favor of the Spurs.

Cucurella was consulted about his fight and made a curious clarification: “No, that’s why I’m not going to cut my hair. This is my style.” Referee Anthony Taylor has not sanctioned anything and the VAR, against Mike Dean, has not called him to review the play. Furthermore, he added: “It’s weird, I just remember that one player did it once again. I was very young, I was in U-12 academy, but I’ve never had another episode like this since. “
The taking of Cuti on Cucurella.
“The referee at the stadium said he was seeing a red card and it is very clear to me. The video is very clear. I don’t know what happened to the referee. It’s the same: you kick me in the leg, you shoot me. hair “The same thing. But the referee didn’t understand it like that “, concluded Cucurella. Those who think the same is Thomas Tuchel, who asked himself:”Since when is it allowed to pull an opponent’s hair? “.
Meanwhile, Scaloni is attentive to the recovery
In the absence of confirmations from rivals for the last FIFA date before the World Cup in Qatar 2022, Lionel Scalloni he’s putting together the list of those two friendlies. And one of the commitments of the starting eleven and the call is Cuti, fundamental in the center of the defense with Nicolás Otamendi.
