Danny Rose may have turned his back on Tottenham with his explosive interview
DANNY ROSE LIVE TRANSFER UPDATES: All the latest as left-back calls out Tottenham…
Neville on Rose
10:11: Gary Neville has criticised Danny Rose for his explosive interview.
“WTF is Danny Rose thinking!!” Neville tweeted.
“Imagine walking into the training ground having not been fit for months and months. Morning lads!!”
Rose on more money
“At my age, and having missed six months with injury, I have been thinking about this quite a lot.
“I am reaching my peak and have probably only got one big contract left in me.
“Time is running out and I do want to win trophies. I don’t want to play football for 15 years and not have one trophy or one medal.
“Sorry, that’s not what I am about. I wouldn’t be happy with that. I want to win something.
Rose on moving north
“I will say this too — I will play up north,” he added.
“I don’t know exactly when, but I will get back up north and play some football somewhere.
“I moved away from home (from Leeds to Spurs) at 16.
“Yes I’ve got team-mates who have moved away from families in South Korea and Argentina, but I have been away for over ten years now and I don’t get to see my mum that often.
“I am going to make it my priority before I retire to play football up there.
“My short-term focus is to get back to playing like last year and if I do that the long-term will take care of itself
“I’m not saying I want out, but if something came to me that was concrete, I’d have no qualms about voicing my opinions to anyone at the club.”

Danny Rose has suggested he wants a move to Manchester United
Rose on rivals spending
“There are three weeks to go until the window shuts and you look at Man City and think, ‘If the window shut now they would be happy with the business they have done’.
“Man United, more or less, are there — although I hear Mourinho may want one or two more players — but I am sure he’d be happy with his squad.
Rose on Spurs signings
“I am not saying buy ten players, I’d love to see two or three — and not players you have to Google and say, ‘Who’s that?’ I mean well-known players.
“Under Harry Redknapp we signed Rafa van der Vaart. It was like, ‘Wow, how did he do that?'" Rose said.
“I mean signings like that are what we need — that’s just my opinion.
“As a Tottenham player I’d love to see more signings. It would lift me seeing a top player come through the door.
“I’ve seen a couple of players previously saying, ‘We don’t need a top signing or signings’. But I am sorry, I am not singing off the same hymn-sheet on that one.
“I think we do need one or two top signings to strengthen the squad. I’m just not buying the idea that we don’t need anyone.”
