Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood hailed Hugo Lloris' performance in defeat to West Ham United.

The France goalkeeper produced a string of wonderful saves to stop Spurs receiving an embarrassing thumping.

"Lloris was top draw," Sherwood said. "He has been top draw whenever we have played this season.

"I heard people talking after the Everton game when he got a bang on the head that he is not the same goalie any more. That is a load of crap.

"People don't know what they are talking about. The guy is a consistent performer - he has performed like that every single week.

"If he makes a mistake, it is an honest mistake and he doesn't make many."
