Player watch: Danny Rose

[stevenurse]

Is there a more predicable player in the league? Get into the attacking 3rd, inexplicably chop back onto the right foot banghead looking for a foul or just losing the ball. I don't get it. Couple of years ago he'd burst past on the outside and put in a cross. Now he seemingly gets to the box and slows everything down.

Im sure stats etc will prove I'm talking bollocks, but the take away I get every time I see him now is that bloody chop back!

I know he didn't do it with the chance he had, but ffs man. Get it out your feet and have a strike!

It's amazing how we can take different things from the game. Defensively i thought he did well with limited amount he had to do but going forward I thought he was poor. Gave the ball away 32 times supposedly, didn't realise it was that many. Just like against pool he had some very good crossing chances but fluffed them. Shame to see as he used to be a brilliant player.

Id wager he won the ball back or forced an errant pass 32 times as well. they couldnt play the ball past him on that side.

I bloody love Danny Rose

 

[wadewill]

His effort at times is unparalleled, what i would give to transfer some of that to Eriksen

The fat lad is Wayne Evans, the Go Compare guy and Spurs fan. He sang at the finale as well.

And I thought Rose played well tonight, but should've scored.

Wynne.

Gave the ball away a lot and his crossing wasn't great but he made up for it in effort and aggression

Don't ever tell me Danny Rose doesn't care... look at his reaction. The limbs in the background decent too.

He stuck £50 on Kane first goal scorer, he’s gutted

No says he’s fed up with football because of racism, “I have had enough. At the minute, I’ve programmed myself to just think that I’ve got five or six more years left in football and I just can’t wait to see the back of it”

 

[McFlash]

Its shocking that an English player, plying his trade in England, should feel like that.
Ok, he gets it in Europe sometimes and when on international duty but surely playing in the PL, it's pretty rare.
It shouldn't happen at all, to be fair but it's sad to see that he feels like this.

 

[mpickard2087]

If you read every word of it, I think he's quite clearly saying it's the racism and specifically all the politics of football he cant wait to see the back of, rather than the game itself. Though admittedly it's hard to separate one from the other.

That's so fucking wrong. I feel sad for the lad.
He should be loving his career but the fucked up minority are causing him to feel like this? Shocking.

That's so fucking wrong. I feel sad for the lad.

And I doubt he’s the only one

As a white man who doesn’t experience racism, I’m speaking from a position of privilege and possibly ignorance, but I really don’t understand Rose’s attitude at times. He’s experienced racism in the form of boos or chants from the crowd a couple of times in his career, and has received the unanimous support of every right thinking person in football in response.

Difficult to imagine Sterling, who has suffered far worse abuse and far more consistently throughout his career, come out with something like this. That lad is going from strength to strength in his career. Rose appears to be going in the opposite direction.

Rose has an attitude problem that goes far beyond any abuse he’s been subject to imho. There are very few people in the world who wouldn’t trade places with him given the chance.

Nope nope nope nope. You should've stopped when you said "As a white man who doesn’t experience racism, I’m speaking from a position of privilege and possibly ignorance"

Indeed. The fact that none of it is any surprise is the really tragic thing. If he was talking about something we didn't all know, it would be bad. But it's all very old news and that makes it worse.
