Tottenham did not bring back very good memories for Lucas Chevalier. This summer, for his first match under his new colors, he certainly allowed PSG to win by being decisive during the penalty shootout, but he had previously made a hole by misjudging the trajectory of a header from Cristian Romero, allowing Spurs to lead 2-0.
This error would set the tone for his first months at PSG. Since his arrival in the capital, replacing Ginaluigi Donnarumma, the former Lille player has very rarely been decisive and has made several other mistakes. Enough to give rise to serious doubts about it.
Wednesday, four days after a solid performance against Le Havre, marked by an exceptional save shortly before the half-hour mark, the Parisian goalkeeper fell back into his ways. If he did not make a big mistake, he did not manage to be decisive and his exit on Spurs’ second goal is even very suspect. Enough to earn him a new round of criticism.
Luis Enrique in his support
“He is a boy who does not evolve at all in the same register as in Lille, both in the locker room and on the pitch. He is a boy who is struggling to find his place in a locker room which was European champion and which succeeds the immense Donnarumma of last year, Emmanuel Petit told RMC about him. Goalkeeper in Lille and goalkeeper in Paris, it’s not at all the same job. »
And for some supporters, the cup is full and their benching or even their departure are already demanded.
Lucas Chevalier can, however, always count on the support of his trainer. “On the 1st, we defended poorly, Spence was alone, they did a great job. The 2nd is a set piece. The 3rd is Vitinha’s assist, right? “, he confided about his three goals conceded.
