Sheffield United and Tottenham Hotspur supporters have been reacting to Cameron Carter-Vickers’ Steel City derby display on Twitter.

The on loan defender was making only his second start since moving to United at the end of August, and helped the Blades to a 4-2 win at the home of their local rivals, Sheffield Wednesday.

In truth, Carter-Vickers had little work to do against an Owls side whose attacking threat was largely nullified by those in front of the American teenager.

And though many United fans had more pressing things to tweet about – this being their first win against Wednesday since September 2009 – a handful took time to praise Carter-Vickers’ performance.

As the game was broadcast live on Sky Sports, Tottenham supporters were given a rare opportunity to watch the academy product in action.

But based on the following tweets, the jury is still out for them.

Carter-Vickers signed a new three-year deal at Tottenham upon leaving for Sheffield United, but currently has Jan Vertonghen, Toby Alderweireld, Eric Dier, Davinson Sanchez and Juan Foyth ahead of him at Wembley.

What did you make of the Tottenham starlet’s performance for Sheffield United – does he have a future at Spurs?
