KYLE WALKER’S SAVAGE DIG! Tottenham Slammed by Former Star After Man City’s Premier League Triumph.
Kyle Walker made a comment about his spell at Tottenham Hotspur after winning the Premier League with Manchester City yesterday.
The former Tottenham man pipped his old rivals Arsenal to the title with a 3-1 victory over West Ham on the final day of the season.
Having left Spurs back in the summer of 2017, Kyle Walker scooped his sixth Premier League title since his switch to the Etihad Stadium.
Spurs fans will undoubtedly be relieved that it came at the expense of Arsenal, with their north London rivals finishing two points off the pace.
The 33-year-old spoke to Sky Sports after picking up his 15th major trophy and mentioned his former side Spurs.
Walker makes Tottenham comment after Premier League title win
It’s no secret that Walker emerged as one of the best full-backs in the country during his time at Spurs under Mauricio Pochettino.
He and Danny Rose formed an exceptional full-back pairing and were often tasked with flying forward to support Tottenham’s attack.
His role has somewhat changed at City as he’s often their last line of defence due to his blistering pace and ability to recover, with Harry Kane recently labelling him as the fastest player he’s played alongside.
And when asked about how the tactical set-up at City suits him, Walker mentioned his role at Tottenham.
“When I was at Tottenham, I was a wing-back so coming here, it was different,” the Englishman said. “Pep didn’t see the certain qualities I had in my game and he thought that he would do something different.
“That’s what’s the best with him, everyone has qualities, I say everyone has a superpower. De Bruyne, his passing. Erling Haaland, his finishing. Foden, small tight spaces. Jeremy Doku, one on one. I could go through them all.
“My superpower is my pace and I’m a cornerback in the NFL. I just try and do what I need to do for the team.
“Ok, I’m not going to get the assists and the goals that I probably did at Tottenham but I don’t care as long as we’ve got one of these [medal] round our necks at the end of the season.”
What Walker said about Spurs after City game last week
A defining moment in Walker’s season came at Tottenham last Tuesday as City picked up a crucial 2-0 win in north London.
It was a happy return for the Englishman and proved vital in City’s bid to lift their fourth consecutive title.
There was plenty of noise surrounding the game as Spurs could have handed the title to Arsenal had they picked up a result against the champions. But Walker was quick to praise his former side’s effort on the night.
“We’re competitors and people have to understand, never mind if it’s a training session or a game in the Premier League, Spurs could still have gone on and got the Champions League. Aston Villa going to Crystal Palace was still a difficult game,” he said.
“You could see they were putting everything on the line to try and win the game, which as professionals they are meant to do. But from a Man City point of view, we had to block all that.”
