Rose wins over Spurs fans to become Premier League's best left-back

Danny Rose hasn't forgotten the reaction of some Tottenham supporters to the new contract he signed in 2014.

"There were a lot of negative comments, it wasn't nice," he said last month.

Two-and-a-half years later, the abuse has turned to adulation. Twice in the space of four days, Spurs fans sung Rose's name more than anyone else's after he inspired them to back-to-back home wins against Hull City and Burnley.

Playing as a wing-back, Rose crossed for Christian Eriksen to open the scoring in the 3-0 win over Hull and he scored a brilliant winner in last Sunday's 2-1 victory against the Clarets, this time as part of a back four.
