Left in a World Cup final with three goals conceded and no decisive stoppage during the penalty shootout, Hugo Lloris missed his return to competition with Tottenham. At fault on the first goal against Aston Villa (0-2), Sunday, the French goalkeeper finds himself already under pressure.
Lloris missed out on his return.
If the World Cup had ended in the semi-finals, Hugo Lloris (36) would have received compliments. Unfortunately for the goalkeeper of the French team, the final against Argentina (3-3, 2-4 on pens) went through this and obviously left its mark.
A blunder that hurts
Point of the finger for the three goals conceded but also and above all for not having repelled the slightest shot on goal from the Albiceleste, as against Switzerland (3-3, 4-5 pens), in the round of 16 of the last Euro, the Blue has resumed competition with Tottenham. A return to the field against Aston Villa (0-2), Sunday, which went very badly. While his attacking partners showed almost nothing, the Spurs goalkeeper precipitated the fall of his own with a rough handball on a shot from Douglas Luiz, allowing Emiliano Buendia to open the scoring a few moments later.
A necessarily unfortunate blunder for the Niois, who did not reassure in the cage. Since the start of the season, Tottenham players have also committed five combined errors leading to opposing goals in the Premier League. Lloris is responsible for three of these five blunders. A real handicap as the formation of the capital, 5th and under threat from Liverpool, which has one game less, is losing ground on the leading teams, including Arsenal, Manchester City and Newcastle.
Souness rams Lloris
Often criticized for his irregular performances, the Blue received a huge slap from the ex-Red, Graeme Souness. I’m not a big fan of Lloris. I have been saying this for a long time. He has made four goal-leading errors since the start of last season. It’s the worst for goalkeepers in the Premier League. Its expiry date has passed , dropped the consultant for Sky Sports. Not the best way to prepare for the many derbies to come (Crystal Palace, Arsenal, Fulham, West Ham) as well as the double confrontations against Manchester City and AC Milan…
