Tottenham captain Cristian Romero is a "leader" but must learn to control his aggression after his second sending-off of the season, manager Thomas Frank says. Speaking at a press conference as Spurs prepare to take on Newcastle United on Tuesday, Frank said he was confident the 27-year-old Argentina centre-back had the right blend of skills to succeed. He is a young leader. "And then when you have a player that's playing with so much passion and aggression, things like that can happen. "That's not to say he shouldn't learn from it, of course he needs learn from it, going forward."
