Player Watch: Hugo Lloris

[markiespurs]

Time for him to go, far to error prone in big matches and for a WC winning captain and club Captain his mentality is piss poor

 

[SugarRay]

The fact he is captain sums this side up!

Devoid of leaders

 

[jolegend]

Sell. Not good enough.

 

[Blue]

Does have a tendency to screw up in big games but is capable of doing some game changing saves as well. He is way to unstable atm though.

I'm all for giving Paulo more chances - better with the ball in his feet and has the potential to be a great keeper.

@Tony Dean You okay, pal?

@Tony Dean You okay, pal?

I've been better.

I've been better.

We keep going. Not great how it played out but positives are we looked more cohesive with our attacking intent. Just need Winks/Dier back to shore up that midfield and finish the season strong.

It's got the point when friends who support other teams laugh at the fact we have Lloris in goal. Everyone can see he's a complete liability and yet he's our fucking captain. It should be the minimum standard of a GK not to make mistakes yet he costs us a goal every 3 or 4 games, and the fact that he has a great game every now and again does not change that. He HAS to be dropped and replaced in the summer

Lol yea I get the lloris banter as well

The biggest bottle job at the club is our captain, if Poch wants to change the mentality at the club then perhaps he should start by changing captain.

 

[coys200]

Can’t defend him anymore. Yes may have the odd great game but he’s lost us countless points this season. The worrying thing is pochettino will stick with him.

 

[stevenurse]

Anyone thinking he's not going to be our number 1 for as long as he wants is on crack.

Poch always defends Hugo and they are clearly very close. To be fair we weren't saying Hugo had to go after Leicester, Arsenal or Dortmund. He's still good, he's just not exceptional like he once was.

Replacing him with significantly better will cost a fortune that we don't have.

Sadly

 

[thePessimist]

What I struggle to understand with him is the belief he has with himself when it comes to kicking the ball/passing. He’s always been shit at it. Still he takes massive risks. Directly linked to the first goal today. With the way we play at the back he’s starting to cost us.

For the first time I think I’d be fine with replacing him...

 

[bigpalacios]

I'd rather have Thorsvedt in goal

Sadly

He has never been exceptional, very good at his peak but hasn’t been at his peak for some time. Leaving aside his ever more frequent howlers Poch clearly wants a keeper who can distribute from the back and surely even Lloris’ biggest fans wouldn’t suggest that is his strength.

Harsh, but fair sadly. Can’t see him being dropped for a lengthy period though which is the only way he is not going to be captain anymore.

 

[Spursh]

Apart from that pen save vs Arsenal, the guy has made so many mistakes in big games.

Sadly

Gazza would do better in the long run. At this rate Lloris will be throwing the ball in our net in 2 season time the rate he is going backwards

 

[dondo]

Go on lads, let it all out...

Defend him, i dare ya ?

 

[Roy's Racers]

I'd rather have Thorsvedt in goal

Erik done a 'Lloris' yesterday in the Legends match.
