You know what though, "glass half full an' all" but Lloris was uncharacteristically pretty **** at the tail end of last season and started this one with a shocker, maybe some time out and hopefully good performances from Mich will make him come back reinvigorated and ready to rock 'n' roll back to his usual superb form that makes him one of the best in the world in his position.
It seems to me that he wasn't actually fit from the Euro final, so I'd like to know why that was missed. Get Lopez in now or an experienced 3rd choice keeper, as I'd prefer not to end up in the situation that Newcastle did last season.
Thought Vorm looked decent in pre season and he made a great save against Everton. The guy was great at Swansea and he just needs some consistent runs in the team. Can't say I'm all that worried. Think we might miss Wimmer more. Jan hasn't looked sharp at all since his injury last season.
Vorm looked good on Saturday and was very calm, which he hasn't always looked in a spurs shirt. I think him knowing he has a month in goal will do his confidence and focus a lot of good. Hopefully he'll give Pochettino a difficult choice to make come mid September when Lloris has recovered
I thought he'd just got a whack from Jenssen and wasn't match fit, cos he missed the pre-season games? Pochettino didn't mention him in his pre-match press conference.
I don't think it's long term, pretty sure the commentator in both the pre-season game against Inter and then against Everton mentioned he was suffering from a niggling hamstring injury but didn't make it sound as though it was too severe. Hopefully if he's not already back by Saturday he'll be good for the following week.
****... Missed that. So that's Hugo and now Wimmer out for a spell. Good job we have a few weeks until the CL starts!
