Forster's decent but (not the first time I've noticed) he did one save yesterday that went straight back into danger - if Chelsea had a functioning striker they could've well nicked a goal. That's one thing Lloris has always been good at - he'll make a good save but he always pushes it out or wide.

Anyway yeah fair play to the big man. He'll do for now

Yes correct it was a fumble but Lloris has been doing this all season. At fault for so many goals. I appreciate he’s a good servant, but he’s been a massive liability recently.

"I just think we were very, very lucky to get a player of Lloris' ability when he first signed".... Not sure that's relevant, he's now 36, has been at the club 10 years. We've seen a gradual increase in his errors & drop off in performance, as you would expect from any athlete as they get older. Great keeper and a fantastic servant but in no way a legend..... He's won nothing. The right thing to do would be to go after a long term replacement this summer

"He's won nothing"??
How about a World Cup?

Wow. I'm amazed at these comments. He's barely been tested and has yet to prove anything but you're still preferring him over Lloris? Staggering.

100% Lloris would have saved at least one of those goals against Leicester and yesterday Forster flapped at a shot and parried it directly into the six yard box. he was very fortunate Ben Davies was there to tidy up.

I think you lot have forgotten the positive parts to Lloris' game. He's a brilliant shot-stopper that has admittedly made a few errors this season. Who hasn't gone through a spell like that? De Gea went through something similar, now he's back as the commanding figure he was. For a man that has given so much to our club - he's unquestionably the greatest goalkeeper certainly of my era (or the Prem era) - yet you Forster is the better keeper? Come on!!! He's going through a bit of a bad spell, sure, but to disrespect our captain like that is crazy, and wholly inaccurate.

These comments are spot on.
Lloris has captained a World Cup winning National team.
Maybe his days are now declining...but they are NOT over. Better goal keepers are going to be very hard to find.
