English defender Danny Rose has revealed that he "can not wait" for his football career to be over due to the way the authorities handle racism.
The 28-year-old – who debated the issue for the first time after Tottenham's 2-0 win over Crystal Palace on Wednesday night – called the current punishments a "joke" and admitted: "I've enough."
He added that he even hoped to be a victim of racist abuse when he played for England in Montenegro last month, but did not want to speak out after the match and not tarnish the glory of the 5-1 victory. his team.
Rose, who, with Callum Hudson-Odoi, was the target of the Euro 2020 qualifier, believes that nothing will be done to combat this problem, while the countries at fault will be fined the amount "I spend probably one night in London".
"I'm tired of it," he says. "By the minute, as I'm scheduled now, I think I have five or six more years left in football and I can not wait to see the past, to see how things are in football. . " play by the minute.
"It's just" anything ", so you just have to deal with it. That's how I feel.
"I think I still have five or six years left and I just want to enjoy football as much as I can.
"There is so much politics and all I want in football and I'm really looking forward to seeing the bottom, to be honest.
"It's obviously sad, but when countries are only fined for what I probably spend at a party in London, what are you waiting for? When the punishment is not so severe …
"You see my manager (Mauricio Pochettino) getting banned from two games just for being in a match against (referee) Mike Dean in Burnley.
"However, a country can only be fined for racism. It's just a little joke to the minute.
"This is where we are currently in football and until severe punishment is inflicted, there is not much else we can hope for, I do not think so."
Rose and Husdon-Odoi were badailed with monkey singing by Montenegro fans during the 5-1 win and while the winger and the Raheem Sterling, who was not mistreated, spoke after the match, Rose kept his advice.
He stated that he did not want the attention to be diverted from the awesome English week, where she also beat the Czech Republic 5-0, and he was expecting to be a victim of racial abuse, having been the receiver when he played with the under 21s of England. in Serbia several years ago.
Rose said, "I prepared myself a bit anyway for what happened, so everything was fine. I prepared for that.
"We have won and we will wait for the sanction, if any, and wait to see what happens.
"I was not mad. I just did not want to focus on me.
"I have to say it was a very small minority of the fans who sang, so I did not want the post-game to talk about me.
"I wanted everyone to focus on the good week we had with England. We scored 10 goals and it was a great performance in two games.
"I just did not want to talk to concentrate, that's all.
"I played in Serbia about eight years ago and that's what happened there. So I thought it was a possibility that it would happen again, and that's what happened.
"I immediately looked up in the first half and I know the exact time that it happened in the first half.
"It did not affect my game. I'm a big boy now. Three points is obviously not the most important thing to consider, but I just wanted the team to get three points and to move on and out of Montenegro as quickly as possible. "
The unsavory scenes in Podgorica seem to be at least a catalyst for change, as leaders, including Gareth Southgate and Pochettino, spoke of withdrawing from the field if racist incidents recurred.
This is an aspect that appeals to Rose.
"Yes, I was on the moon (at Pochettino's answer)," he added.
"I spoke to Gareth after the match. I did not talk about it at half-time, so he was not aware of what was going on until he heard it right at the end.
"The manager was a little upset to be right because he said it was the first time he was involved in something like that and he did not know what to do.
"He said that he was completely behind me if we wanted to leave. I appreciate it, but as I said, I only wanted to get the three points and leave as quickly as possible. "
The former defender of England, Paul Parker, does not think that withdrawing from the field is the right answer.
"No, I do not agree with that," Parker told Press Association Sport.
"There were too many good men, even before my time, who were standing and saying to each other virtually," Why should I give you what you want? It would mean that you have won. You should never let a minority win a battle.
