Some Spurs fans have slammed the performance of left-back Danny Rose tonight after his performance against Olympiacos.

Jose Mourinho was taking charge of his first home Tottenham game on the back of a victory against West Ham on Saturday.

There was more joy this evening, with last season’s finalists mounting an epic comeback to win 4-2, having initially fallen to a two-goal deficit in the first half.

It had all the makings of a horror night, but Mourinho’s men found the passion and winning mentality to book their place in the knockout stages of the competition.

It was a huge night for the club, who can now look ahead to exciting encounters in the second half of the season.

However, the performance of Rose was a problem for some supporters who were far from convinced about his return to the starting eleven.

After an injury to Ben Davies, the 29-year-old made his first start since the last European night against Red Star Belgrade.

Gifting possession in the run-up to the Greek outfit’s opening goal of the evening, Rose struggled defensively and didn’t provide much energy on the left flank when attacking either.
