Tottenham fullback Kyle Walker was delighted for Kyle Naughton over his extended first team run last season.
The pair came through at Sheffield United before moving to Tottenham in 2009.
"Of everyone here, I know better than most what Kyle can do," Walker told the Spurs website. "He doesn't panic on the ball, he's very talented.
"I always say the biggest thing about football is confidence and if you can play with confidence, you can do anything.
"We speak a lot and I'm happy he's done well.
"I want to play all the time but at the same time, I'm pleased for Kyle that he's got a good run in the team to show what he can do."
