Shhhh he's probably reading this... best not to be mean Danny boy. It's obvious he holds a grudge
Deep down we love you Danny (if you're reading this)
We just love our Spurs far far more
To be fair, he played well for Sunderland, despite their relegation.
Imagine being homesick as an English player in fucking England. Talk about exaggerating issues. He could almost walk home.
To be fair Joe, i couldn't give a stuff about Rose, and would like to see Poch think more about Davies starting and letting Rose rot, in fact a fuck i do not give.
I am fed up to the back teeth that Walker and now apparently Rose thinking that a third, and second place in the PL means a doubling of wages? For what?
We shouldn't sell him because we have no cover, but i'd be counting the days down to the January transfer window if i were Poch and then replace him. If Poch and or Levy fails to send out a message then Dier, or Dele will be the next in line hankering up for a move.

Spot on.
He just wants more, because of the inflated wages and transfer fees being paid this off season, and all of this being engineered by the cunt of an agent he has.
How the fuck can you sign a deal and then act like a cunt by wanting more before you get any real chance to kick a ball in anger after signing the last deal?
Who even knows if he will return to full form from his current injury. Part of me wishes that he gets gangrene and his injured leg drops off.
Would serve the greedy, self righteous, self entitled cunt right.
I am through with the twat whether he stays or not.
Get real Fidel. Just because he disagrees with you? I thought you were better than that. Get back on your tractor and keep fleecing those 'tourists'down on your farm. You're not so different Cas - in fact I'd suggest you're a capitalist deep down - certainly more than I am. And I'm not - not at all.
I see the real test here being whether Rose can play for us again.
Make no mistake, the best outcome for us is still to keep him. He's the best LB in the league on his day, and if/when we actually make 3 or so signings the media spin can be that we've met his hopes for the club.
We have so much shit to hit the fan tomorrow. Will the club release anything officially in response to this? What the fuck will Poch's upcoming pre-match press conference be like?

But he IS right about those players They absolutely do need to step up.
Rose is right about most of things he has said it's just the timing and who he has said it to is the problem.
But we all saw how useless he is when his was when his heart wasn't in it. There's no way he'll play with the same commitment after this. He's gone.

Oh fuck, Joe, I just want this to all end up alright.
ochfacepalm:It was bad enough seeing Walker walk (no comedy intended) last month, but at least we had time to mull that one over. Like a pet where you know it's been sick for a while.
This is just horrendous and out of the blue. Genuinely can't remember an equivalent interview from a player in the last couple of weeks of a transfer window.
Every day this week I've gone to bed hoping for some good news the next day - but now I really don't want to see what tomorrow brings.
Also I'm drinking Asahi, so blame some of my misplaced optimism on that.
The difference between the north and the south is massive. Not sure many people appreciate just how different it is.
I've been in London a few times and after a few days couldn't wait to get home. I've felt more home sick in London than any place I've been, and I've traveled a fair bit.
Although on the flip side, Walker and Rose were there for 10+ years. You'd think they'd adapt by that point.

You're a better fan than I am. I honestly couldn't give a fuck. We'll put out a team at Newcastle and go from there. I really do trust Poch - I can't say more than that.
I'm with you there, Joe. Poch >> any single player.
I just think the reality is that Rose staying would be the best we could do here. The meltdown if he leaves for United (or somewhere) after Walker left for City is just fucking unbearable.
I know that a lot of fans on here and other forums (I made the mistake of venturing over to SpursCommunity to see what they made of it) are flippantly angry at Rose and want him gone.
I genuinely don't see his comments as being irredeemably bad. Certainly not with the sensationalised headlines removed.

He played above all expectations when he went there, but the fact he went there in the first place speaks volumes.
When he came back from Sunderland in 13-14, his performances weren't what I would call "good" either. So for him to turn around and say "Jokes on you, I was good all along, before Poch ever got here" is funny to me.
Without Poch I would be surprised if Rose was in the England squad. I'd be surprised if he was at even a mid-table premier league club, because he could not defend to save his life.
I'm not sure what planet he's living on right now - some things he's saying don't connect with reality at all.
Homesickness is a thing, but maybe not so believable when you've spent 10 years earning shed loads of millions in a city only 200 miles down the road. I'm genuinely sorry for your experiences, but most people are happy to work where the money is. Unfortunately for us, that appears to be Manchester right now. Maybe it's got something to do with the money? Just possibly?
