Spurs boss Andre Villas Boas tied a journalist up in knots during a press conference after he was asked if he understood Hugo Lloris’ frustration over not being in the team.

AVB soon turned the tables by asking a few questions of his own. The journo was left backpedaling furiously and claiming to have asked a different question than the one he had actually asked!

The original question was: “Andre, do you understand Hugo Lloris’ frustration about the situation, because you did pay a lot of money for him?”

That prompted the following exchange:

AVB: “What is the frustration?”

Journalist: “Well, the frustration at not being in the team.”

AVB: “How do you know?”

Journalist: “Well, he didn’t play last night, did he?”

AVB: “How do you know he’s frustrated?”

Journalist: “No, I’m asking you, do you find him frustrated?”

And so it continues until AVB wins by way of technical knockout.
