Although Rose is a solid full-back who would add to Chelsea’s homegrown quote, Blues fans were, in general, pretty unimpressed with the speculation.
One supporter said that £15m on Rose would be money ‘spunked’, while many others were so baffled they could barely complete a full sentence.
Rose is currently fifth in England’s left-back pecking order, behind Manchester United’s Luke Shaw, Arsenal’s Kieran Gibbs, Southampton’s Ryan Bertrand and Everton’s Leighton Baines.

Where has that Danny Rose to #Chelsea transfer rumour come from? Like him going forward, but defensively… yikes! — Chris McHardy (@ChrisMcHardy19) August 4, 2015
£15m on Danny Rose, yet we let Ryan Bertrand go for peanuts and have a very good prospect in Jay DaSilva. A waste of ££ to be backup. #CFC

If we spunk £15m on Danny Rose, seriously. — SpeakChelseaFC (@SpeakChelseaFC) August 4, 2015
If Chelsea haven’t got an English left back as good as Danny Rose in their Academy, they might as well shut it down.
