Hugo Lloris confident Tottenham will return to winning ways at Swansea

Hugo Lloris is confident that Tottenham will bounce back from their back-to-back league defeats by beating Swansea at the Liberty Stadium after the international break.

Spurs’ loss to Liverpool was compounded by last Sunday’s home defeat by Fulham, a result which leaves top-four rivals Arsenal just four points behind Andre Villas-Boas’s men having played a game less.

Goalkeeper Lloris admits that the defeats were a huge disappointment for the north Londoners but is sure that he and his team-mates will return fresh and ready to fight for a top-four finish at the end of the month.

“It’s not easy when you lose games, but sometimes it can happen in the season,” Lloris told Spurs’ website. “Of course, it can also happen to other teams as well.

“Now we go away with our national teams for two weeks and hopefully we will return with a great spirit to finish the season.

“We are all focused on the last eight [league] games and I hope we can win as many as possible.

“There are eight games left when we get back, eight finals.”

“[The] most important thing in this period is to win the next game. It will be difficult to play away to Swansea but we have enough quality to get a win there.”
