Tottenham star Hugo Lloris admits title meltdown from last season still hurts: 'the taste is still here'

Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris admits the heartbreak from last season's title capitulation can still be felt in the Spurs dressing room.

The Frenchman and his fellow team-mates experienced a fall at the final hurdle, when a dismal end to the campaign saw them both concede the title to Leicester City and also finish behind bitter rivals Arsenal.

Tottenham were seen as the only side who could prevent Leicester's unlikely title heroics and Lloris believes the experience from that meltdown still haunts the squad this season as they go about trying to make amends.
