Tottenham's Danny Rose: Sharing England camp with Liverpool's Champions League winners 'draining'

Danny Rose admits it was "draining" having to share the England dressing room with members of Liverpool's Champions League-winning team because it served as a constant reminder of Tottenham's failure in Madrid.

Rose was part of the Spurs side that lost 2-0 to Liverpool in the Champions League final on 1 June before he joined up with the England senior side to prepare for the Uefa Nations League finals.

There he linked back up with members of Liverpool's triumphant Champions League-winning side Jordan Henderson, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Joe Gomez - which served as a painful reminder of Tottenham's disappointing night in Madrid.

Speaking to reporters about his time with England, Rose said: "It's not draining coming to play for your country.

"It is a bit draining having lost last weekend and having to share the camp with Liverpool players. You are reminded every day that you lost the final and that was a unique experience for me.

"I have never been through that myself. I was definitely tired from a long season with my club and having to come to England didn't help. But as I said, whenever you're selected for England it is a great occasion. It is one I will always welcome and cherish."

The 28-year-old, however, praised the manner in which the Liverpool players conducted themselves with their Spurs colleagues, adding: "They've been great.

"We have a great squad here. I have known Jordan for 10 years now. He has been fine, we have spoken about the game.

"Our congratulations go to them. I couldn't have asked for either of them to have been much better than they have."
