Tottenham defender Danny Rose says the England bust-up between Manchester City winger Raheem Sterling and Liverpool defender Joe Gomez has been blown out of proportion.

The Football Association announced on Monday that Sterling would not be considered for Thursday's Euro 2020 qualifier against Montenegro, following an incident involving Gomez at the team's St George's Park training camp.

"It is not a big deal," he told talkSPORT.

"We know there was something and people's safety and how they are feeling is vital but, to me, it happens every day up and down the country within football.

"Is that right? No, it is not right but it happens and it can happen - emotions run high and you may say something.

"I have said a lot of things out of anger and frustration and you may do things out of anger and frustration - it is not right but once you have had time to calm down and assess everything you shake hands and move on.

"For me, it is just business as usual. We trained as usual and the gaffer was great in training, Steve Holland and all the coaching staff and all the lads trained well so it has just been a normal day."
