Hugo

WTF is up with him ?.... Sublime to ridiculous again. Granted the conditions on Sat were shocking (defo not easy for a keeper). Still a great shot stopper but the amount of flapping at crosses, ridiculous distribution that puts his defenders in trouble is getting annoying !!!.... Cant inspire much confidence esp with young inexperienced guys (Foyth, Sanchez) in front of him

Not sure he deserves to dropped (Though Gonzo has done well whenever called upon) but perhaps Poch could have a quiet word with him...... Sometimes there's nothing wrong with just putting your foot through it & launching it into Row or up the field... Incase he forgot we have the best CF in the league at holding it up/ bringing others into play

Just keep it simple Hugo Please !!!!!!

I think Pickford is hugely overrated tbh

He has got a good range of kicking yet the amount of times he over kicks it and ends up in the other gk hands is to much.

He’s also not great at coming for crosses and has a mistake in him.

He’s good but not great at all.

Lloris is what he is a great shot stopper but average everything else.

We definitely need to start a search for a new number 1 soon
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The vastly-overrated Pickford has a passing accuracy a massive 29% below Lloris’ 73.2% from the beginning of 16/17 season until today.

He has made 6 errors leading to goals compared to Lloris’ 7.

I’ll let the Pickford worshippers digest that.

I totally except that some folk don't think Pickford is the answer but we need to do something as the mistakes against Barca and PSV are simply unexceptable. We don't toil all season to qualify for the CL just to have him chuck it away. Would be good to see Gaz given a proper chance, I think he has alot of potential.

I really don't understand where the pickford love in has come from.

the penalty save in the WC?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I've never seen Hugo save a pen he just falls to the wrong side in a half hearted way so its not that strange that Spurs fans are impressed by this.

Pickford has saved 7 of 32
Hugo has 11 of 76

Suppose not as bad as you’d think.. for one being an brilliant PK saver and one being terrible.

Considering Lloris is generally recognised as one of the top 6-8 keepers in world football, who do people suggest we sign?

Neuer? Never going to happen. Too expensive.
De Gea? Same
Courtois? Same
Oblak? Same
Ter Stegen? Same

Any reasonable suggestions out there of keepers who are pretty much undisputedly better than Lloris that we can get?

You will struggle to find too many Spurs fans who think Hugo is in the worlds top 6-8 so the way the question is framed doesn't stack up.

Anyway I would be quite happy to give Gaz the number 1 spot until the end of the season then see where we are.

When did Hugo last save one?

I'm not trying to be clever I genuienly can't remember him ever saving a pen for us even though I'm sure he must of.

Probably Higuains or Falcaos

I didn’t restrict this just to spurs fans though. I certainly don’t think Gazzaniga is better than Lloris so that suggestion doesn’t work for me.

Gaz can only prove he is the better keeper if he gets a run of games but Poch still seems to think Lloris is top banana so I doubt he'll be dropped anytime soon.
