Reports have emerged that Danny Rose is training with the “kids” at Tottenham and for some, that is disrespectful to a player that has given decent service to the club down the years.
Personally, I disagree with that sentiment, I never thought he was a good defender and that he has brought all his misfortune on himself with his huge mouth.
I cannot feel sorry for a man that is kicking a ball around, even with teenagers receiving close to £10k a day and who will likely make a few million in signing on fees when the club do finally offload him.
Rose is training with the youth lads simply because of his attitude, his big mouth, his disruptive behaviour and poor performances on the pitch.
If he had been a top-class defender then he could have got away with the way he conducts himself but the simple truth is that at best, he was simply mediocre.
I know that opinion is not shared by everyone and that is fine, there is nothing wrong with a disagreement between fans but the fact is that Rose no longer has a future at Spurs, he has no legacy and the quicker he goes the better it is for everyone.
If anything it is the kids I feel sorry for having to put up with him.
