Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson was critical of Hugo Lloris, saying the Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper “has been wobbly” at times this season. Merson, a former Arsenal and Aston Villa midfielder, was asked which shot-stopper he prefers between Lloris and Manchester City’s Brazilian ‘keeper Ederson and admitted he preferred the latter.
The 50-year-old said on Sky Sports: “One’s a World Cup winner and one is not, but I will just go for the Brazilian. I’m not a great believer in goalkeepers being good on the ball but Ederson is a classy operator.
