Tottenham youngster Danny Rose grateful to AVB

Tottenham full back Danny Rose has expressed gratitude towards manager Andre Villas Boas after being given a series of first team opportunities during the club's pre season.

The 23 year old has spent most of his time on loan away from White Hart Lane ever since he made the move to North London from Leeds back in 2007.


However, Rose is not prepared to go out on loan again and will start looking for a new club if he is not part of Villas Boas' first team plans.


Spurs have been looking for a left back this summer with Real Madrid's Fabio Coentrao touted as a possible target. The Portugal international might move to Spurs as a part of the Bale deal if it goes through.


"This is the most I've played in pre-season," he said. "It's nice to have a manager who gives you a chance and is not afraid to drop certain players."


"Obviously I know Spurs have been in the top four or five clubs for the last five seasons or so, so I know it's hard for anyone to break through, but at the same time it is frustrating and it's great that now the gaffer is not afraid to drop people if you're not performing or training hard enough.


"I wouldn't be going on loan again. If I wasn't playing then a loan's not an option for me now. I want to get settled somewhere, playing week in week out."
