Spurs fullback Rose: Pochettino had me fuming; but no bust-up

Tottenham fullback Danny Rose admits he was furious after being dropped for the North London derby defeat at Arsenal.

Rose was fit for the 2-0 weekend defeat at Arsenal but was overlooked by manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Speaking after playing the full 90 minutes in Tottenham's 2-1 Champions League win at Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday, the 27-year-old said: "There was no falling out.

"There was no argument, no bust-up. I was fuming, yes, but it should be obvious any player should be unhappy that they're not involved in the biggest game of the season.

"There was no falling out or bust-up. I trained on Saturday and it looked like the right decision from the manager."
