Everyone says, “Stop using Hugo Lloris”.He said, “I couldn’t help it”.
Public opinion toward Hugo Lloris (36, Tottenham) has deteriorated extremely.
Goalkeeper Hugo Lloris has made a series of mistakes recently. He allowed an own goal early in the first half of the 2022-23 English Premier League (EPL) home game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on the 16th (Korea time). In an away match against Manchester City on the 20th, he conceded four goals in the second half alone.
The own goal against Arsenal left everyone wondering. Arsenal striker Bukayo Saka couldn’t catch the cross with his right foot and bounced it to his chest, which passed the goal line. Lloris scored his own goal for the first time in 11 years of his Tottenham career. In the end, Tottenham lost 0-2 to Arsenal. In the match against Manchester City, he led 2-0 in the first half and allowed four runs in the second half, losing 2-4.
Jamie Carragher, who serves as a commentator for ‘Sky Sports,’ said, “Tottenham needs to change its goalkeeper to win without losing a point. Lloris has been a good goalkeeper, but not now. We need to recruit a new goalkeeper to properly prepare for next season,” he pointed out.
Hugo Lloris said in an interview with Britain’s Evening Standard, “It is regrettable that the first loss against Arsenal was made. I was able to select the location well, but the ball hit my chest and led to an own goal. It was an inevitable loss. He recalled, “The third loss in the away game of Manchester City is also regrettable.”
Tottenham captain Lloris said, “A lot of bad things happen to our team these days. Now we have to unite as one. We have to keep trying and go up to a higher rank,” he urged.
Tottenham, which recently lost two consecutive league titles and remained in fifth place, moved away from the top four. Tottenham has 33 points, Newcastle has 38 points, and Manchester United has 39 points. Tottenham played one more game than Newcastle and Manchester United. Tottenham has a busy way to go.
Meanwhile, it has been reported that Tottenham is eyeing new players to replace goalkeeper Lloris. Jan Oblak (Atletico Madrid) and David Raya (Brentford) are mentioned as strong candidates for Tottenham’s recruitment.
