Spurs fans on Twitter have been reacting to some footage of Steven Bergwijn.
Spurs’ official Twitter page shared some footage of the Dutch international answering questions from fans on Thursday afternoon and one answer, in particular, had Spurs fans talking. The 22-year-old was asked by a fan who he thought was quicker between himself and Heung-Min Son, to which he suggested that he was the faster of the two.
Spurs signed Bergwijn from PSV in the January transfer window and he has gone on to make five appearances in the Premier League, averaging a solid 6.92 rating having contributed two goals (per WhoScored).
Are you excited to see more of Bergwijn?

How and why do people think Stevie is fast? From what I’ve seen so far he looks really slow

Some of these Spurs fans seem surprised by Bergwijn’s admission and feel that Son is the quicker of the two players.
What do we think?
We haven’t seen too much of Bergwijn since his arrival in January due to his injury and the suspension of Premier League football, so it will be interesting to see how he does when top-flight football resumes.
