The performance of Kyle Walker-Peters has split opinion among Tottenham Hotspur fans. Tottenham drew 2-2 with Manchester City at The Etihad Stadium after twice coming from behind.

Walker-Peters was partially at fault for the opening goal. Raheem Sterling nipped in at the back post to head in Kevin De Bruyne’s sensational cross. But aside from that mistake, Walker-Peters held his own.

The 22-year-old had a difficult task against the reigning champions. With the likes of David Silva, Bernardo Silva, Riyad Mahrez, De Bruyne and Sterling in their attacking midfield ranks, Walker-Peters was always going to be tested.

Walker-Peters has taken the starting right-back spot at Tottenham this season. Kieran Trippier departed to join Atletico Madrid, leaving Walker-Peters and Serge Aurier to compete for the right-back slot.

Mauricio Pochettino has placed his faith in Walker-Peters for the first two games of the season and he will be hoping to repay that. The England U21 international’s performances have been mixed so far.

Here are some tweets from Spurs fans discussing how Walker-Peters performed against Man City yesterday.
