Danny Rose is motivated by the opportunity to make this season "one of the best in Tottenham".
The Spurs have taken a big step forward to a fourth-place finish in the top four in the Premier League on Tuesday with a 1-0 win over Brighton while they are in the Champions League semi-finals, with a draw with two legs against Ajax. next week.

And with a few weeks to come, Rose and his teammates know that they have the opportunity to do the story.
Rose said, "One week we lost to Burnley, Chelsea and Arsenal. I think that during the season we can be proud of what we have accomplished.
"It's not over yet, we're in the last mile and we have the chance to make this season one of Tottenham's best games.
"We are playing a huge game this weekend (against West Ham) and an even bigger match against Ajax."
Rose took a cautious approach when asked what this Spurs team was capable of, her fingers being burned earlier this season.
"I fell into this trap by saying what we could achieve two months ago when we were in the mix with Liverpool and City," Rose said.
"I thought we were right there. I do not want to fall into that trap anymore. I prefer to keep it in the locker room.
"We know what we are capable of. All teams of the manager expect to win. We must continue to believe and see where it leads us. "
It was not easy against Brighton, who put 11 men behind the ball, and it took a winner in the 88th minute of Christian Eriksen to seal the three points, which was timely considering the first four rivals, Chelsea , Arsenal and Manchester United. the Easter weekend.
"As for the league, it is said that there is no league like the Premier League," Rose said.
"I changed the Chelsea game after 20 minutes on Monday night and it was 2-2. I could not believe it.
"I was not expecting Arsenal or United's result, I was going home after training, it was 1-0 and I went home and it was 3 or 4 0. I could not believe it.
"The results are good for us. As the game progressed, I thought it would be one of those nights, but we capitalized on those bad results and we are above the moon, we have the three points. "
Brighton, whose survival in the Premier League is still in the balance, has come for a point at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and has almost succeeded in doing so thanks to a resolute defense.
The late quality moment of Eriksen proved however decisive to let the Seagulls ejected.
"We frustrated them all night, but they had some magic and they did it," defenseman Shane Duffy said on the club's official website.
"It's pretty difficult there [the dressing room]but we must build confidence in a big day on Saturday and feel that we have regained our confidence. "
