Kyle Walker-Peters missed Tottenham Hotspur’s last game with injury.
Walker-Peters return to fitness is ostensibly good news for Spurs, as it increases their right-back options, which are currently very sparse.
However, it says much about Walker-Peters start to the campaign that Tottenham supporters don’t seem over the moon about his return.
Walkter-Peters is only just starting to be handed a consistent run of games, so the judgement of Tottenham supporters is rather harsh.
That being said, if the 22-year-old is to nail down a place in Mauricio Pochettino’s starting line-up he is likely to need to improve.
Walker-Peters is set to face increased competition for his spot soon as Juan Foyth is getting closer and closer to returning to action, and Serge Aurier has stayed with Tottenham, despite being linked with a move away over the summer.
Davinson Sanchez had to start Tottenham’s last game at right-back against Arsenal, but it seems unlikely that the Colombian will be used there again against Crystal Palace after the international break.
