Hugo Lloris was once again in the headlines following Tottenham's 4-2 defeat against Man City on Thursday evening. Leading 2-0 at the break courtesy of Dejan Kulusevski and Emerson Royal strikes, the hosts turned the game around with three second-half goals in the space of 18 minutes, before Riyad Mahrez grabbed his second of the game in stoppage time.
The Algerian's first of the contest once again raised questions about Lloris as he was beaten at his near post by a powerful drive that took a slight deflection off Ben Davies. Already under the spotlight following his own goal against Arsenal four days earlier, the Frenchman opened up on the two goals and his own form following the winter World Cup in Qatar.
“I can’t complain. You’re a professional and you just follow a rhythm," he told the Evening Standard in an exclusive interview. “But obviously when you’re involved with the national team and you go until the last day of the World Cup, you come back and miss mental freshness. But you need to get back on track and help your team.
