Tottenham Hotspur’s Oliver Skipp has been named Premier League 2 Player of the Month following a fine showing of performances in September. Mauricio Pochettino had him on the bench for last weekend’s game against Cardiff City at Wembley due to injuries, but the newly turned 18-year-old has also performed with such maturity that warrants first-team opportunities in the near future. Spurs fans have had their say on the academy prospect and they are full of praise for their youngster.
With that in mind, here’s a closer look at the reaction.
Congratulations to Oliver Skipp who has been named September’s #PL2 Player of the Month!

A pair of fans even felt that a start in Spurs’ next fixture after the international break against West Ham United is the best option.

Yes well done indeed. Been apparent for quite some time that he's going to be quite a player.

One fan even made the bold statement that Skipp is better than two of Spurs’ first-team midfielders at this moment in time.
