Some Spurs fans react to academy graduate making his full Prem debut

Tottenham Hotspur take on Burnley today in the Premier League, looking to grab all three points to stay in touch with the leaders Man City.

The Prem fixture comes between a miracle match in Barcelona and a North London derby in the Carabao Cup next week.

Pochettino seems to have picked his team with those fixtures in mind, handing the likes of Eriksen, Winks, and Son a rest.

Coming in for Harry Winks and the virus-struck Eric Dier is a name that may have some fans extremely excited, young Oliver Skipp.

Skipp has been Pochettino’s favourite academy prospect this season, and has made a number of appearances on the bench in all competitions, as well as the odd few minutes on the pitch.

However, today is Skipp’s full Premier League debut for the club, a huge step in his career.

Hopefully the youngster takes it in his stride with a man of the match performance.

Some Spurs fans had plenty to say on Twitter…
