Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino would be wise to start Kyle Walker-Peters again on Saturday.
Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino should repeat his trick with Juan Foyth with Kyle Walker-Peters.
Foyth endured a tough Premier League debut for Spurs against Wolverhampton Wanderers, where he gave away two penalties.
However, Pochettino showed his trust in the young centre-back, by picking him to start in their next Premier League match against Crystal Palace.
Foyth went on to score the winner in that game, and Pochettino should send out a similar message of trust to Walker-Peters this weekend.
Spurs were forced to start with Walker-Peters at right-back against Barcelona in the Champions League, and the youngster made a nightmare start.
Walker-Peters slipped up, allowing Ousmane Dembele to net Barca’s first goal.
After that the youngster steadied himself though, and put in a highly credible performance.
And Pochettino should show that his error has already been forgotten about by picking the right-back again this weekend, when Spurs take on Burnley.
