Arsenal fans weren't asking for that much.
The exit of theautobiography of Hugo Lloris this week in the UK, titled Earning my Spursis an opportunity for the 2018 world champion to look back in detail on his long career, particularly on his nine seasons spent at Tottenham. Among several anecdotes about his adventure in England, the one concerning the luxury watch offered to all players by club owner Daniel Levya few days from the 2019 Champions League final finally lost by Spurs against Liverpool (0-2), deserves to be highlighted, as reported by Guardian.
A lack of winning culture
Firstly excited to be presented with a sublime « Aviator watch » by the club, Lloris and others quickly became disillusioned, noting that the inscription was engraved on the back of the watch “2019 Champions League finalist”. A huge lack of taste and a real symbol of lose according to Lloris, who deplores the lack of winning culture at Tottenham: “Who does that at a time like this?” If we had won the final, he wouldn't have even taken the watches back to write “Vinqueurs” on them. Although it is beautiful, I have never worn this watch, I would have preferred it without anything written on it. » Not ungrateful either, the goalkeeper nevertheless recalls his considerable respect and esteem for what Levy has done for the clubsimply deploring “certain things to which he is not sensitive”.
A watch which could, however, have allowed Spurs to be on time, rather than conceding a goal from the 2e minute of play.
