Rose had featured in just five of Spurs' 17 matches since Jose Mourinho arrived as head coach, and says he decided to move to St James's Park while watching Newcastle on television. He told Sky Sports News: "I was watching Newcastle play Chelsea and I saw the injury (anterior cruciate ligament) that Jetro (Willems) had. Jetro Willems suffered a season-ending knee injury during Newcastle's win over Chelsea earlier this month"It was just by coincidence. As well as wanting to experience regular game-time again, Rose admits there was another reason behind his move to Newcastle: access to better chip shops.
