Re: Is Lloris the best keeper in PL?

It's not his fault really, he suffered a concussion. If you want to blame someone, it's spurs coaching staff for allowing him to play and to continue playing in such conditions.

Personally, I agree with Nick. I think he'll be fine in the long run, but the concussion has definitely rattled him.

Lex, don't you know man? He is still suffering from the effects of the concussion which transpired 2148912432 days ago. The concussion has really hampered his game. These mistakes have nothing to do with his ability. Blame it on the concussion. rofl

How long did it take Cech? I think it took him almost 2 years to recover and get his confidence back... you need to be fearless to play keeper like Spurs want him to. He looks hesitant and kamikaze when he comes out now as opposed to the full confidence he had pre-concussion.

Good thing with France NT is that we don't play a high line and our defenders aren't crap. So he can play a traditional keeper role and he's been excellent at it.

^How the hell can you compare what happened to Cech and what happened to Lloris?

Lloris still has post-concussion issues per NT doctors.... he didn't crack his skull. But he still suffers from headaches and needs to take medication for it. The doctors haven't been able to pinpoint a specific cause other than it's due to the concussion and that it's not dangerous (i don't believe that part).

My only point is that a concussion is always serious and everyone reacts differently to them. Even the mildest ones can have very bad and lingering effects. It just depends on how your brain copes with it and it's different for everyone.

Lloris is medically ok to play and doesn't want to deal with it until after WC. If there are still headaches and he needs to medicate, he may need to take further action though.

Personally, i think he needs to shut it down. Just because medecine can't figure out the cause for your symptoms and medication makes it go away... it doesn't mean that something isn't wrong.

I'd say Alisson is number 1 at the moment. He won Liverpool's player of the year award last season, has made so many crucial saves over the last few years, and has contributed lots to the team.

Alisson is the best for sure right now. Not a lot of great goalkeepers in PL.
