In an interview to Spanish broadcaster Telemundo Deportes, Cristian Romero criticized Spurs' lack of spending compared to rivals, stating, 'The last few years, it's always the same... Hopefully they realise who the true responsible ones are and we move forward.' His comments pointed towards the need for accountability and the potential of the club to compete for titles with a better structure.
Ange Postecoglou acknowledged some validity in Romero’s criticism but emphasized that the method of delivery was wrong. 'Cristian realises what he said ... A lot of what he said was good, some wasn't right and shouldn't have been done in public.' He noted that these matters should be dealt with privately, highlighting an internal approach to team issues.
Postecoglou added, 'We deal with these things in our own four walls. There's always issues we need to deal with. The same way I wouldn't criticise a player or anyone else, we shouldn't be doing that in a public sense.' This indicates a commitment to maintaining team cohesion and addressing conflicts internally.
Regarding Romero's emotional response, Postecoglou said, 'He's a human being, he got emotional and I think he just expressed what he wanted to express, probably in the wrong way.' This reflects the human aspect of athletes and the importance of context in their statements.
