He also added, “We were late in all the aspects. We completely missed the first part of the game. It is really painful today. It is not talking about tactics, we could not fight.”
He accepted his mistakes by saying, “It is difficult to assess. There was a lack of pride. To concede four goals in 20 minutes. We could not even react and bounce back.”
Lloris is now 36 years old and he is not in Tottenham’s future plans. The club is looking for his replacement and their first choice is Jordan Pickford. They can also pick Liverpool’s second-choice goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher. Huge Lloris is currently out for the remainder of the season due ti injury. It means we can say that he has played his last game for Tottenham.
