Spurs defender Kyle Walker wins PFA Young Player award

 Tottenham and England defender Kyle Walker has been named PFA Young Player of the Year.
The ex-Sheffield United full-back, 21, beat off the challenge of Manchester City's Sergio Aguero and United's Danny Welbeck to take the award.
"I was a bit surprised because defenders don't normally get these awards and get the limelight as much as the centre-forwards," he said.
"It is a great honour to get the award and hopefully there is more to come."
