So, having read all of the quotes now:
What I hate is he has requested this interview, he called The Sun! This is very important, it means he wants to put the information out there. So you have to ask Why? What are his motives for doing this? Like it or not there is only one answer to conclude, he wants out.
The 2nd thing I hate is why now? (Last night I questioned when these quotes were made, i.e was it at the time of his BBC 5 Live interview, if so The Sun could have held onto these quotes and release now). There is NO mistaking that this interview has been done within the last 2 weeks as he mentions the City game in the US. The timing of this is only damaging to the club, how are the club, the players going to react to this. What are they saying about it as they meet up for training this morning? Conclusion, nothing good will come out of it. TWO FUCKING DAYS BEFORE THE OPENING GAME OF THE SEASON! What a cunt.
He's off message. Poch has fostered a "family" atmosphere, it's close knit, it's a tight group. Players such as Kane, Lloris, Dembele, Vertonghen, Eriksen have all come out in a unified voice about their thoughts on the squad and signings etc. I don't care if they harbour different views behind closed doors, we will never get to hear those, so why does Rose go rogue? Why is he so far off message? Ask yourself what does he gain for going against the collective team message? What a cunt.
I have always respected Rose's direct interviews, they are rare but when he does speak he is always worth listening to as he is always insightful, honest, even if this means some of the things he says knock you back a bit e.g. The BBC 5 Live interview I didn't have a problem with. I didn't agree with him about a marque signing at the time but hearing now his views on Barclay, it would suggest that this is his idea of Marque signing, as opposed to Bonucci or Mesi. So his interview in hindsight could be seen as reasonable and inline with almost every fan on here, you may have differing views on Barclay the player but hard to argue that backfill in the depth of the squad isn't need by anyone, is the point. What he says in his interview has been argued by many Spurs fans, the irony of Spurs fans rage about lack of singings, player comes out say the same thing = "he's a cunt"! It has to be said at this point the interview is not about Rose wanting signings, it's about Rose, its' all about him.
This interview kills me. Whatever the outcome, whether he stays or goes it will be used in the press over and over and over, no good can come of this. What a cunt!
