Tottenham left back Danny Rose appeared less than impressed by manager Mauricio Pochettino's decision to hook him after 70 minutes against APOEL.

The defender was hoping to take his chance after he was handed a starting berth in Spurs' 3-0 win over the Cypriot outfit, but was substituted following an eye injury.

The England international made known his anger at being jettisoned by Pochettino for the north London derby at the end of last month, claiming to be 'fuming' at the decision.
