Gary Neville brands Cristian Romero as 'absolutely mad' and claims the Tottenham defender should have been sent off for his 'mad' challenge on Newcastle star Callum Wilson, claiming 'It’s not a fluke'

Gary Neville has branded Cristian Romero as 'absolutely mad' before stating that the Tottenham defender should have been sent off for a reckless tackle on Callum Wilson during their 4-1 win against Newcastle at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.

Romero wiped out the England striker catching him on the ankle in what was a dangerous tackle that earned him a yellow card in the second half.

But Neville believed he should have been given a greater sanction for the foul, which would have been his second red card of the season.
