Latest Tottenham news: Some Tottenham fans want Kyle Walker-Peters to start against Borussia Dortmund
Tottenham face Borussia Dortmund in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 tonight and need to bounce back after three disappointing outings.
Spurs only picked up one point from their previous three Premier League ties, and a change in competition could be the right tonic for Mauricio Pochettino’s men.
The team hold a 3-0 advantage after the first leg, however, Dortmund cannot be taken lightly. The Germans might be on a poor run too, but they will have a lot of fan backing tonight.
Tottenham were pictured training ahead of the tie and Kyle Walker-Peters posted an appropriate message on Twitter.
All focus on getting the job done tomorrow! #COYS #UCL pic.twitter.com/ZFk6U37drO

Another chance for Walker-Peters?
Kieran Trippier hasn’t travelled with the rest of the team to Germany and that leaves Pochettino with a tough choice to make.
Serge Aurier is experienced but hasn’t had the greatest of seasons while Walker-Peters has impressed in the few outings he has received.
The 21-year-old English right-back has just a couple of starts in the Premier League and Champions League this season. However, he provided three assists against Bournemouth and played in the 1-1 draw at Barcelona.
This would be another test for the youngster, but some Tottenham fans wanted Walker-Peters to start against the Germans.
Best RB at the club
