'Masterclass inbound' - Spurs fans love what Mauricio Pochettino has done against Real Madrid

Tottenham Hotspur fans have reacted to Danny Rose making his first start of pre-season against Real Madrid.

The left-back had missed all of Spurs' friendlies so far after being told he can find a new club this summer.

But he has failed to secure a move elsewhere and was recalled to the Tottenham squad for the Audi Cup by Mauricio Pochettino.

Rose conceded after the Champions League final defeat to Liverpool that he may have to look for another club this summer.

He was subsequently left out of Tottenham's tour of Asia amid speculation over his future.

PSG and Juventus have both been linked with the England left-back but no bid has materialised.

football.london understands Spurs are interested in Fulham's Ryan Sessegnon as a potential replacement for Rose but talks are still ongoing for the England under-21 left-back.

Rose's return will come as a boost to Pochettino ahead of the new season, with Ben Davies continuing his recovery from surgery.

And it seems his appearance in a Spurs shirt against Real Madrid has excited fans, who would be keen for the left-back to stay in north London.

Here's the best of the reaction on social media:
