Looks as flappy as a baby bird. Punching stuff that easily be caught. Nervous any time the ball goes near him right now.

His quality has clearly dropped this season but the way people are banging on you'd think he's fucking Mignolet. Two poor goals to concede but had no effect on the game really and hasn't affected our points tally

Not affecting our points tally is very debatable OT and NLD for starters.

At the moment, especially as captain, his form is a concern. It's not just any obvious errors, it seems almost every single game there are several chaotic jittery moments, often that are putting team mates in trouble. He needs to knuckle down and start setting an example again, because if this was an outfield player the calls for him to be taken out of the team would be much much louder.

Right to be pissed for today performance. But calling him to be dropped by some is just a tad too far. The poise and elegance as club captain is second to none. He's very well respected too.

Just bugs me why his distribution and punches are not trained more to improve it. Really nervy and sucks when he did either of these two. Tony, do your job!!

Been saying this all season, not just today, his form has dropped massively, many more performances like this and his gotta be dropped.

If a goalkeeper concedes any poor goal then it's absolutely up for criticism and scrutiny - loss of points is immaterial.

Lloris has been below par this year - his kicking has always been a bug bear but more of an irritant than anything else however when his positioning has been extremely suspect then questions have to be asked.

People were shitting themselves when they thought he might leave just a couple of years ago. Hugo is a true professional, he will work hard to rectify his mistakes.

I am sure he will and I don't think we will get much better than him but he has been making a lot of mistakes this year and his distribution is quite poor.

He's still only let 20 goals in though. No player is beyond criticism but some of the comments are just ridiculous he's a player who hasn't had a bad season for us. If all our players were up to his standard we would have won the premiership by now.

In my eyes he is in decline. No other reason for him to be making this many mistakes.
He’s 31 should be peaking as a keeper. The thing that bothers me most is the nervous outlook. From distribution to commanding his area, that transmits to the whole defence. Hopefully he can sort it out. Because he will cost us in big games.

I would disagree with that. The whole team has only let in 20 goals this year. He has also been the main culprit for some of those goals as well.

All keepers make mistakes but what is most worrying is that he seems quite hesitant when coming out (always a big strength of his) and his distribution really does put our players under pressure at times.

If all players were up to his standard is wrong we would of won the league is wrong, his a good keeper, but you cant compare him to ederson, de gea or courtois

He just turned 31, still young for a GK
I know. But like i said for me he’s in decline. Every player is different, Van der sar played at the top level until he was 39/40, where as Cassilas started to decline in his early 30’s.
