Is Sandro back for this?
Defoe is benched...
Gutted Lloris isn't starting to be honest. I don't want to knee-jerk or anything, but if I was him I'd be pissed, like mega-pissed.
Why? it's not as if Friedel is playing shit, and Lloris is playing awesome in the cup games.
The longer we leave him out, the more his confidence will diminish, allowing mistakes like the Maribor goal to creep into his game and we'll end up with Gomes Version II. + having someone lightning quick off his line with great distribution is only going to help against City. Friedel's distribution has been terrible this season in my opinion, even if he has made some great reflex saves.
