5 Premier League stars that would make Barcelona a better team

#3 Hugo Lloris (Tottenham Hotspur)

Hugo Lloris is not afraid to use his feet to circulate possession

If Barcelona wanted a capable shot stopper between the sticks at the Camp Nou, then they needn't look further than Hugo Lloris as the ideal goalkeeper. The France international has put in consistent performances at Tottenham Hotspur since his move to the Premier Leauge in 2012 and is often overlooked when the top goalkeepers in the world are discussed.

What sets Lloris apart from a number of goalkeepers is actually what he does with his feet. Most defenders are reluctant to pass the ball back to their goalkeepers when under pressure but Spurs centre-backs Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen have no problems considering him as the 11th outfield player.

His ability on the ball under pressure would serve Barcelona well in keeping possession and circulating the ball. Lloris' distribution has been key to Pochettino's Spurs starting attacks from the back and he even had a couple of assists last season.

While Lloris is an exceptional shot stopper, he is also equally good when coming off his line. This will aid Barcelona when they play a high line while pressing their opponents in the attacking half.
