Romero: I never said I wanted to leave Tottenham. In Argentina, my style is like this without changing it.

In August this year, after Thomas Frank took office, Romero was appointed as the captain of Tottenham Hotspur. Last season, the Argentinian publicly criticized the club's management, and his straightforwardness was recognized a lot. In the first round of the Champions League stage, Tottenham will face Villarreal. At a press conference before this game, Romero talked about his criticism of the club and whether he would go to La Liga to play.

About the criticism of the club last season

I've had a lot of interviews and it seems I'm talking bad about the insiders of the club, but in the end I'm a person who makes mistakes at times and that's all. I always hope the club gets better. Sometimes some things are misunderstood, but everything I say is because I want a architecture here that can reach the top level and become a big club.

This is why I was angry sometimes before. But what I'm seeing now is a very organized club with clear philosophy and a head coach who is organizing everything. Everyone saw this in a short time.

About the new coach Thomas Frank

I think they have started to make all these decisions since Thomas arrived and head in the same direction. Things go a lot smoother when everything goes like this, right? The players know what the goals are for this season and we will continue to move on like this.

About once saying I "want to" play in La Liga

I said those words in an interview, and sometimes something appears in the football world, social media and other media. I never said I wanted to leave the club, and there was no sign that I would do that. I'm very happy here. Tottenham is a big family for me. On the first day I came, they gave me everything. I've been really happy since Thomas arrived.

Regarding my own defensive style

I won't change my style, they call me aggressive, but my playing style was learned from childhood. When I was in Argentina, they taught me to defend like this. This is my nature. This is why I can get to where I am today, so why should I change?
