Tottenham fullback Danny Rose feels they're favourites for FA Cup

Tottenham fullback Danny Rose feels they're favourites for the FA Cup.

Spurs set up a quarterfinal against Swansea City after their replay victory against Rochdale this week.

Rose expressed his ­optimism about Spurs' FA Cup ­prospects - and their chances of overcoming Juventus at Wembley next Wednesday. The Champions League last-16 tie is on a knife-edge after the 2-2 draw in Turin two weeks ago.

“We are excited about what lies ahead," said Rose. “We don't want to disregard Swansea but if we can get through that then we don't fear Chelsea or Manchester United. I'd like to think we're favourites in the Champions League game as well. It could be a very exciting end to a very hard season."
