Harry Hotspur are reporting that Tom Comatose has reported that the club is planning to fine Lloris for saying the following in an unauthorised interview
Wembley is a different place. It demands more effort in your mind, in your body, and we need to find the right feeling...We need to do better, we need to kill the games. We should have managed the chance better for the goal for Burnley on Sunday. It was a cruel scenario but if you don’t kill the game, 1-0 is not enough. You need to be very strong until the end of the game and that was not the case.
Here's the things wrong with this
1.) HH links to the following
Tom Comatose article as evidence that the club is going to fine Hugo...and there is not a single mention of him being fined or giving an unauthorised interview in the article
2.) While the Narrative from the Standard (edited by notable Chelsea fan George Osborne) talks about Hugo "breaking ranks" those two words are conspicuous in their absence in the reports on the same story by
The Independent or
ESPN, while there's no mention of the story anywhere else even though the Comatose piece went up three hours ago.
3.) Saying that we should have killed off the game is hardly "breaking ranks" is it? It sounds like Lloris giving a fair and frank assessment of our performance
4.) HH claims the club have always viewed the Standard as a friendly paper...even though Levy banned their journalists from matches and press conferences in 2007 after one of their columnists, Matthew Norman, wrote numerous hatchet jobs about Levy and the club. It's also worth pointing out that, just like Harry Hotspur and To the Lane and Back, Matthew Norman is one of those writers who claims to be a Spurs fan, yet ****s on the club every chance they get (and they'll happily manufacture reasons if there isn't a chance to do so)
