Former Chelsea forward Tony Cascarino has delivered a message for Danny Rose after he left Tottenham to join Newcastle United on loan.
Last month, the England international completed a move to the north east on loan until the end of the season, having fallen out of favour at Spurs under Jose Mourinho.
Rose made his Newcastle debut last weekend, coming off the bench in Newcastle's 0-0 draw with Norwich City in the Premier League.
His future at Spurs is uncertain, with less than 18 months left on his current contract in north London.
And Cascarino believes he would be better off moving on and proving himself elsewhere.
“Danny hasn’t been playing and he has had a number of injuries over the last couple of years, some bad ones, and he looks like he has lost that half a yard, which makes a massive difference, especially for a full-back," Cascarino said, speaking on Talksport.
“Full-backs in the modern game are all quick, they are all athletic, and he had that.
“When he was playing at his best at Spurs, he was a tremendous left-back. He just lost it slightly, and I think Jose [Mourinho] made a call on him.
“Spurs fans would probably agree that Danny wasn’t as good as he was 18 months to two years ago.
“And the consequence is he finds himself losing his place, and then going to play football elsewhere.
“It’s football. I have been there myself and you have got to get on with it, dust yourself down, you are still a good player, and you go and prove your trade somewhere else.”
