I'd agree with you. He must be miles better than the tossers we have now, but he doesn't look unstoppable like some people make him seem :?

No keeper is impassable - he does remarkably well considering he has Boumsong in front of him.

Btw, Lyon won't want to sell Lloris, but look at the Ligue 1 table - they're in a dogfight with Lille and Montpellier - there's a risk they won't even get into the Europa league, let alone the CL.

On the other side, if they finish third, they could realistically face Spurs in the CL qualifier and they would smash them to pieces :barscarf:

I don't rate him either, a case of people thinking he's better than he is because we don't see him consistantly
