The second goal would have been disappointing to concede by an under 15's goalie. It really was his fault. If he'd have caught it, luck wouldn't have come into it.
This only applies to keepers who actually are consistently a 4/5 and for 95% of their game produce high-quality performances. The problem with Lloris is that he has in fact been on a downward spiral for at least two years and the number of high-stake f-ups are rising at an alarming rate. He's 32 years old - he should be in his absolute prime as a goalkeeper now, but the reality is quite the opposite. He's actually below the level compared to when he arrived at Tottenham right now. You go into a game hoping for Hugo/Trippier not to f it up and give the opposition a goal. That's unacceptable for a keeper. It should be the other way around.

He fluffed his gimme of the golden glove as well when his team were 4-1 up.
He was a shoe in and managed to screw it up royally in front of the world. He's a nervous wreck, he simply doesn't have the winners mentality we need. The only reason he won the World Cup is because of the lack of good French goalkeepers. He's cost Spurs too many times, gifting Coutinho a goal for Barca at Wembley this season, being the wrong side of the post when Mahrez tapped in, punching instead of holding the ball etc.
He's 2nd only to Pickford, another fraud in most errors leading to goals since 2017. He's made more mistakes than goalkeepers playing for the likes of Burnley, Brighton, Crystal Palace for heavens sake. Yes he is a hugely talented goalkeeper but he's cost us one too many times now. A team content with those figures can expect the team to go backwards if they aren't proactive in sorting it, which is what we are seeing all over the shop at the moment
If he wasn't captain
and it wasn't the first game
at the new stadium
he would be dropped.

And even then £60m doesn't buy you consistent class from a keeper. Allison looked shakey with wayward passes and if not for Robertson would have been punished for parrying Kane's shot into Eriksen's path.Reason why Pep and Klopp rushed to sign new keepers...
from one scapegoat to another...
On the other handHugo dropped Jimmy ?....by Pochettino ? No chance .
