Rose came on as a substitute in Tottenham's historic 1-1 draw and says that although he was srprised by the reaction of the fans to his introduction, he was understandably delighted.
The 27-year-old said that he had been expecting to be booed after his summer rant which saw him express a desire to leave the club and complain that he was not being paid what he was worth by Spurs.
However, the England international was instead applauded onto the pitch by the fans, who sang his name during his time on the pitch and later during the warm-down.
"I was expecting a frosty reception from the fans tonight so I just have to say thank you to them for giving me a great reception when I came on and when I was training afterwards," Rose said after the game.
"I want to thank them again for chanting my name. I'm trying to look forward now for the rest of the season. First and foremost I have to try to win my shirt back.
"It's gone now, my manager has forgotten about it and we all move forward and we try to win this club a trophy. It's forgotten about. My opinions will be voiced in a different way from now on."
