Man Utd to pounce as Rose furious at Spurs after derby dumping

Manchester United are on red alert as Danny Rose's relationship with Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino continues to plummet.

The Sun says Rose is furious after being dumped from the matchday squad for defeat at Arsenal on Saturday.

The England fullback believes he is 100 per cent fit and disagrees with Pochettino saying he was not ready to face rivals Arsenal.

Rose was made to train at Tottenham's Enfield HQ on Saturday morning instead of being involved with the match-day squad.

United are keen on signing Rose.

And the player himself has expressed a desire to move back up north in the past. It's been reported United would be willing to offer Luke Shaw as part of the deal.

After Arsenal's 2-0 win, Pochettino said: “If we had won 2-0, nobody would ever have asked me about Danny Rose.

“Remember, we played without Danny for ten months, so we need to build up his fitness and for this game we decided it would be better for him to train rather than be on the bench.

“I am an honest person and I am not happy about this. It's not good a situation is made when it is not an issue."
