Goalkeeper - Hugo Lloris
I might be a Tottenham fan, but I'm not a fan of Hugo Lloris. For a top-class goalkeeper, he makes too many errors in the games that matter. The World Cup final was a typical example.
That is a damning indictment of the France World Cup winner, I admit, but readers of my team of the week will know I have been a consistent critic of his for the past two seasons.
Nevertheless, he makes my team because of an excellent performance against a West Ham side who should have got something from the game.
Saves by Lloris were the reason why they didn't, but the claim from Mauricio Pochettino that Lloris is one of the best goalkeepers in the world is extremely generous.
Garth Crooks clearly not a fan

He's our fudging captain who's got punished bailing out two mistakes in front of him.Sorry, as much as I like him he’s done.
Mistake after mistake and it’s been getting worse over the past 2 seasons.
Not this today.Won us the points today.

Super analysis. We also wouldn't have complained if we'd scored the 7 or so goals we could have done. And I also think we wouldn't have complained if we hadn't let in two late goals to Inter.Meh. So he took a risk. If he didn't come out, it's a very likely goal. He tackled outside of the area, which was smart; if he'd got the ball none of us would have complained.
He rushed uncontrolled off his line for the second time in 2 CL games.
He’s been poor and error prone for a long time
Being our captain has no relevance

Sounds like from recent interviews he doesn’t want to end his career at spurs, he’s making a lot more mistakes than he is saving, so shouldnwe be looking to replace him? There’s not a lot of decent keepers out there to be fair, but I’m thinking maybe his time is coming up at Spurs. Not sure yet.
31 isn’t he? That’s not a bad time to be a keeper though and if anything a great age. Strange how he hasn’t gone onto be the world beater that he was destined to be .Two great keepers in France
Could swap him for the lad at PSG as they would love a real name player
