Tottenham Hotspur supporters are being thanked by Cristian Romero on behalf of the Spurs squad for all of their support for the team during this difficult season
Cristian Romero has thanked the Tottenham Hotspur fans for always being by his side and supporting him during his time at the club.
Romero, 27, says he has great affection for the Spurs fans who fill the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for every home match and follow the team across England and Europe. He also acknowledges that they deserve better than what they have endured this season.
The captain has vowed to do everything to get them out of what he describes as a "dark time". However, the message Romero shares with the club's fanbase is simple, with two months of this season left.

Speaking at length to Sky Sports ahead of the Sunderland match, he said: "The truth is that there is nothing else to say to the fans because, first of all, we have to thank them for always being there. They will always be there, no matter what happens.
"There are always going to be Tottenham fans. If things are good or things are bad, they are always there.
"Over the years, the players, the coaches, the managers change, but they are the ones that are always going to be there. That's why there's nothing else to say but thank them.

"At least, especially for me, they have always been by my side, they have supported me a lot. I feel great affection for the fans of this club.
"I've been here five seasons. This season was not easy for any of us, but I want to thank them for always being there, and I want to try to be together more than ever in this dark time, and I will do everything I can to get out of this."
Romero also acknowledged that they deserve more. He said "The club isn't there because of me, it's the structure, the stadium, the people.
"Every time we play at the stadium, it's completely full, they follow us everywhere, and I think it deserves to compete at least.
"I'm not saying win the Premier League, because to say win the title is easy, but at least compete in the top positions of the league, compete in the European competitions.
"To try and have targets to achieve these things would be great, but the important thing is not focusing on the present, which is not good. Try to get out of this bad situation and try to focus on these two months of the season and do it in the best way possible."
Romero was yellow carded during the first half at the Stadium of Light, with the score goalless at half time.
