Supporters of Newcastle United have been flocking to comments which were made by Tottenham Hotspur loanee Danny Rose.
Rose has been with the Toon since the January transfer window, having joined on loan until the end of the season from Spurs (per BBC).
In the quotes which were posted to social media, Rose discussed the time he has already had with the club and what his future holds (per Newcastle United).
Rose said: “I’m playing for my future. I’ve settled in very well, I love the lads and members of staff, and the fans. For me, I’d love to play for Newcastle for longer than what’s on my contract.”
A link to the full set of quotes was posted alongside the tweet (per Newcastle United) and lots of fans were left wanting to air their thoughts.

I don’t even rate him rather we sign Willems but I can’t see that happening

Looked solid since the restart and unlucky to be dropped imo, Spurs are only meant to be looking for like £5m so I’d defo take him. If we can get him playing the way he is capable it’ll be an absolute bargain ?

Since moving to St. James’ Park on loan, the 30-year-old left-back has made seven appearances in which he has neither scored nor assisted (per WhoScored).
Would you be pleased if Newcastle signed Danny Rose from Spurs permanently?Yes, he's good enough
No, he's not good enough

Would make a good backup to Jetro

Aside from neither scoring nor assisting, the level of performances which Rose has delivered has been somewhat uninspiring, too.
The Englishman has been the 10th-worst performer for Steve Bruce’s outfit in the league this season having earned a 6.52/10 average rating (per WhoScored).
No willems no party

As can be seen in the responses from Newcastle fans, there did not seem to be a general consensus over whether he would make a good permanent signing or not.
