Rose and Walker are vital to Pochettino’s vision

In the modern game, full backs are vital to any side and are expected to not only defend and protect their side from the pace and trickery of wingers, but also to offer a fair bit going forward to boot.

Spurs are lucky that they have two full backs who can do just that and both Walker and Rose were relentless against the Hammers.

Walker’s return from injury has been a huge boost for Spurs and Rose is showing his potential with each passing game – netting an impressive goal to boot after getting the best of Adrian.
