Danny is also immensely quick.  He half-robbed the ball off Keogh (in front of the Osmond) when he was a fair distance away.  Keogh looked stunned.

I don't think it's as much that he is particularly quick (though he's not slow), just that his movement is good and he has a good instinct for running towards where the ball is going to be. He did a great job defensively yesterday and I can't complain that he didn't do much at the other end of the field as the front two had pretty much no support from the midfield.

Honestly you couldn't write it....
I'm currently having to defend Danny Rose on twitter...
Apparently he's "not all that" and saud person can't understand why we rave about Rose so much .

Yet, what he fails to understand is that without Rose we would be all but dead n buried by now , every game DR gives 100%, his work rate is up there with Cliftons, his effectiveness in both boxes is irreplaceable, but apparently  we fans shouldn't be spunking out baby gravy all over him...honestly, I ask you.

Let’s be completely clear …..anyone who would say ‘Danny Rose isn’t all that’, or words to that effect, is an idiot.

I think that’s just symptomatic of someone who doesn’t really understand the game. I sort of get the perspective; Rose doesn’t have the pace of Michael Reddy, the tenacity of Liam Hearn, and doesn’t score goals with the frequency of Padraig Amond. They’re the kind of qualities that would be obvious to someone watching their first ever game of football.

I liken it to the odd time I’ve watched Leeds Rhinos play in Headingley. I know next to nothing about the intricacies of Rugby League, but I could always appreciate what a good player Rob Burrow was because he was so tremendously quick and skilful, being at least a foot shorter than anyone else on the field. But there were probably several other players out there having a better game that I completely overlooked, because I didn’t really know what was going on. Burrow just excelled in areas that were easy for numpties like me to grasp.  

Anyone not appreciating what Rose brings to the table has to be suffering the same thing - rank ignorance. He’s absolutely fúcking relentless, and must have covered every blade of grass yesterday, even in our defensive third. He’s clever as fúck, a champion shíthouse, and a very good scorer of goals (even if he didn’t get a sniff yesterday, that wasn’t his fault). Ultimately, he’s been setting a standard that most of his teammates simply haven’t been able to keep up with.

I feel for him that he’s had to be part of such a poor team this season, but blimey, we’d be so fúcked without him.

Spot on. Not since Jack Lester has a player bought so many fouls. Relieves pressure so much.
