    Why have they not shown a crunching tackle at the end? Poor start

    Beautiful sentiment from the man - what a superb player he's been for us; wish him nothing but the best for the remainder of his career and life in general.

    This is the first time in a long time I am genuinely sad about a player leaving us. :emoticon-0153-broke

    Reminder that Mark Hughes had Oriol playing in the U-23 side because he wasn't using him. <doh>

    What was that home game last season when an opposition player was clean through (I feel like it was nearer the end of the game too), and who but our very own Rhino said no not today, charged him down and made the perfectly timed tackle just as the player was lining up to shoot. Hopefully someone knows what I'm chatting about and remembers the game because I want to watch that tackle again. Ori Oriol, Ori Oriol, Ori Oriol, ORIOL ROMEU :emoticon-0152-heart

    Look at Tom’s post above, which has footage of that very tackle I believe.

    Absolutely the best value for money transfer since SRL and Jose and that £5m has been repaid by him many, many times over.
    What a consumate professional and even better human being he will always be a Saints legend...

    Buena suerte Oriol, have a wonderful rest of your career and don't be a stranger to SMS you'll always be welcome....<cheers>
