Player Watch: Hugo Lloris

[spursville]

Please sell.

I think it's just the uncertainty that he creates as well. Not a glaring mistake for the goal either but how he somehow is fully in the goal himself by the time to ball hits the net just shows he's failing with the basics at the moment.

Looking in the wrong place on this goal. Probably the best header of the ball left completely unmarked on the back post.

Lloris had to adjust from completely the other side of the goal and nothing he could do.

The two diving saves were really good.

The punch on the cross pretty woeful.

Lloris is probably in credit with the great saves he makes versus the howlers.

However, with keepers it’s the ordinary stuff that counts. The marshalling of players at set plays, the initialising of attacking play and most of all, the confidence instilled by them to the back three or four. Lloris does none of these. He literally kicks away possession on a regular basis. He concedes too many goals from set plays and terrifies his own defence whenever he tries to play clever.

in short, he dictates the tempo of our forward play. He’s slow and ponderous and so are we.

Just commenting on the comments, its rare to see so much agreement on a player as in this thread.

If such a large percentage of fans see this problem, it's odd being so certain that Hugo will remain between the sticks unless injured, whatever happens.

I saw the touching, long hug of Stellini for Sonny, yes nice, but it made me wonder about how close Stellini is to his senior players and I'm not sure he has the grit to drop his favourites when they need to be.

So we are going to carry on this Conte mk 2 setup, which surely means our top 4 bid is doomed .

Putting him straight back in sent a very poor message to the side and he’s done nothing to warrant displacing Forster.

 

[richard_gleeson]

He's club captain, he was obviously going straight back in

shouldnt be club captain also

 

[agrdavidsfan]

What I find interesting today is the first two finishes of the Bournemouth players who dinked it slightly knowing loris rushes out and throws himself at their feet very clever

 

[Spursmatty87]

Lloris is legend sadly another that we have kept to long

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

Regardless of his performances I think this guy is actually quite downbeat and negative and for me has never ever been the captain and leader we need.

Great servant for the club and at times a phenomenal keeper but if we want a truly fresh start next season I'd like to see him gone and see a new captain, Kane if he stays otherwise maybe Bentancur or someone like that.

With the amount of goals Allison has let in, liverpool should let him go for free too.

I don't think Kane would be a good captain either if I'm honest.

Agree but if he stays / signs a new contract then we’d kind of have to give it to him.

I think Bentancur would be a great shout.

 

[NickHSpurs]

Forster needs to come back in after this

 

[Stamford]

Forster should not have been dropped. Absurd decision

 

[JSpurs1]

Drinhk everytim HYgo kicjs the bll out of playy

 

[isaac94]

horrific, good servant though....

 

[Hoddle&Waddle]

Time to hand in the armband.

 

[H-SF]

Shit captain and shit goalkeeper. Won’t be sad at all when he fucks off in the summer. Consistently let us down even when he was in his ‘prime’.

 

[SlotBadger]

If those online rumours of him walking off etc. were true, there’s surely no way he’d have come out for a post-match interview.
