Anyone defending him has totally lost the plot.
Yes, our transfer window has been a complete shambles and rather pathetic. But going to the Sun with it 2 days before the season starts is actively disrupting our season before it's even begun.
He's a disgrace.
@SugarRay Give it a rest mate. He's the best left back we've had in God knows how long. Show some respect for the spurs team that's come 2nd and 3rd the last 2 seasons and the players that got us there...
Let's not get all entitled n shit.
He hasn't slagged off the club.Show some respect? Not sure what that even means to be honest. I show my respect watching them every week and cheering them no matter what.
He's been great. For 1.5 out of 9 seasons at the club. He was brilliant until he got injured last season. Still doesn't mean he can slag my club off in the press though, especially when he plays for us. He's a good player but as a person he's a wanker, he's shown that with his pathetic outburst.
So, Rose likes bragging about always speaking his mind and saying it like it is, yet doesn't actually have the balls to openly say it's a transfer to another club what he actually wants?? I never really liked Rose, but I didn't know he was such a pussy hypocrite. Hope we get rid of him before the international break.
Let's, for one second just try and remember one thing...
This is Danny fucking Rose we are talking about!!!!??!
This club has had some of the greatest players to have graced British football pitches proudly wear our shirt. Be it Blanchflower, Mackay, Greaves, Hoddle, Klinsmann, Gascoigne, Modric and co, yet suddenly Danny Rose's opinion matters?
Fuck him. Royally. Dry and right in his fucking arse. He is but a mere blip, another name on the roster of those who happened to wear our shirt, and that's after 9 years "service". Two bob little **** who suddenly thinks he's cracked it after a few England caps. Danny...Ashley Cole you really are not. Granted, he was a much better player but that at least gave him an excuse to be a self entitled little wanker, Rose is giving it Bertie big bollocks after two decent seasons in an age where, weirdly, fairly decent full backs are rare as rocking horse shat. I guess that's haleped to his over inflated opinion of himself.
He hasn't slagged off the club.
He's been honest in the press which as a society we have an issue with. I wish he hadn't but I can't begrudge him being honest.
Also he's the fucking shit at football. Best left back in the league. So it's daft to slate his ability now because he's said these things.
No, Modric didn't wear our shirt with pride. He pissed on it when he wrote a love letter to Chelsea. Sure, a very talented player, but what he did was much worse than what Rose did.
"Chelsea are a great club, they play in the Champions League every year, they have great players, they are ambitious and have an ambitious owner who wants to invest in the club and make it win the Champions League, the Premier League and other titles."
"I'll want to go in a good way, a friendly way so I can stay friends with them". Sounds good, but he didn't show up to train and forced his way out of the club.
"It's a short period [your career] and you want to fulfil your personal ambitions as a football player, win trophies, play Champions League football every year." Rose said something similar."
So no, don't talk about Modric like he respected the club, because he didn't. I don't care if he says positive things about us after his move. He acted like a cu*t.
I disagree. We set a precedent. Man City are our rivals for the title and have been strengthened by Walker, as FB was one of their weak spots. I don't mind that we've not signed players yet, but it is clearly seen as a sign of weakness by others - attempting to be exploited by Conte, the media and now by some of our players.
I thought the sale of Carrick, Berbatov, Modric and Bale were pivotal moments when we took steps back. With Carrick in the side we missed out on a Champions' League berth by a single lasagna, replaced him with Zokora and Huddlestone and were consigned to the Europa League for several years. The loss of Berbatov and Keane left us with another sacked manager. With Modric, Bale and VdV in the side we played in the Champions' League and looked as though we were on the up, then had yet another setback when they left, resulting in AVB's sacking.
Now were are, after some years on the ascendancy. 5th, 3rd, 2nd - stuff of dreams. NOW is the time to go for the kill. Losing both fullbacks - so important to our style of play will be of significant detriment. Sure, we won't be finishing 10th. But unless we can replace the likely outgoing Danny Rose with someone of equal or better quality, we won't be improving.
Walker is the first key player we've sold since becoming the so-called "new Spurs" and actually challenging for the league. It suggests maybe we haven't changed after all and shows weakness. Still the feeder club, still vulnerable to the grasps of apparently 'bigger' clubs.
It doesn't make players more aware that they could earn more elsewhere, but it does set an example and a precedent. It shows that we'll sell if the player pouts and teams offer enough money, no matter our standing in the league.
Barcelona had to sell Neymar because his release clause was met. They had no choice.
If the player didn't want to sign a PSG contract he wouldn't be there now. Release clauses are bollocks as we saw with Suarez. PSG have just done to Barca what happens to every other club in the food chain.
Not exactly overflowing with quotes...
