No sooner has Danny Rose entered the Watford changing room than he appears to be on his way back out.
The left back only signed a two-year contract in the summer but after just seven months the 31-year-old has reportedly been told he will not play for the club again.
Frozen out by new Hornets boss Claudio Ranieri, Rose had made a promising start to life at Vicarage Road, making the left back berth his own for a time when he started five consecutive matches in September and October.
It appears that there is something of a breakdown in his relationship with the Italian.
