Southampton midfielder Oriol Romeu: West Brom win brings relief and happiness

Southampton midfielder Oriol Romeu was delighted with victory over West Brom.

The Spaniard was mightily relieved to climb out the drop zone and ease the pressure on manager Mauricio Pellegrino.

He said: “It's a sort of relief and happiness because we are looking for this three points for a long time.

“It will help us in the table because we were in a bad situation. We are not out of it, but it will be easier now.

“There will be less pressure to play and we can enjoy our games. We still have a lot to go and so many finals to be played. It will be difficult but we have to be more consistent and play like we did today."
