South Africa's Premier League star Lyle Foster was the subject of much praise once again, having been labelled a "real quality" player by an EPL star after scoring against Tottenham Hotspur.
After Burnley's 5-2 defeat to Spurs on the weekend, Clarets midfielder Josh Brownhill has highlighted Foster's goalscoring form as one positive to have come out of the game.

The 23-year-old Bafana Bafana star had scored his first English top-flight goal in a 3-1 defeat to Aston Villa in August.
"I am very grateful to get my first goal and open my account in the Premier League. It doesn't taste as sweet as I would have liked, but I'm really happy to get my first goal in the top flight," Foster told Burnley after scoring against the Villans.
His manager Vincent Kompany was full of praise for the South African after he opened his EPL account, saying: "We can't forget his age, he's still fairly young. But he's just continuing what we've seen in the entire pre-season. He has speed to run in behind, he's strong to hold the ball up and he's able to combine with his teammates and able to score a goal as well."
With Foster bagging his second league goal of the season when he opened the scoring against Spurs, his colleague Browning was ecstatic for the forward despite the loss.
"I'm really happy for Lyle, I think it's back-to-back goals now in the Prem, which is a tough league to get that in, he's a real quality player, so hopefully he can keep that goal scoring form," Brownhill told Burnley's official website.
