Chelsea's Thibaut Courtois has admitted he watches Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and 'steals' tips to further his own career.

Courtois won the Premier League title and a League Cup medal during his first playing season at Stamford Bridge.

The Belgium international kept 12 clean sheets in the top flight this term, while Lloris - who hasn't won silverware since swapping Lyon for Spurs in 2012 - kept eight Premier League teams out.

And Courtois told L'equipe: "[Lloris is] a great goalkeeper who saves a lot of points for Tottenham.

"I respect him a lot. I always look at what colleagues are doing and try to steal their good stuff to keep progressing while maintaining our own styles."

Paul Scholes' Team of the Year 10 show all Paul Scholes' Team of the Year 1/10 David De Gea (Manchester United) The outstanding ‘keeper in the league. He has saved United so many points along the way. An easy choice to make. Jan Kruger/Getty Images 2/10 Branislav Ivanovic (Chelsea) This is a man who knows how to defend. He is not the quickest but he gets in position and he has that nasty streak that all good defenders have. Chips in with goals. 3/10 Jose Fonte (Southampton) He has had a really good season after a summer when team-mates, Dejan Lovren especially, had gone elsewhere. He has come to the fore with Southampton, a late developer now 31. 4/10 John Terry (Chelsea) Another solid 38 games. He gets a lot of protection from Nemanja Matic but there is no questioning his importance to Chelsea. His experience helped get them over the line. GETTY 5/10 Ryan Bertrand (Southampton) He just beats Cesar Azpilicueta. The Chelsea man is an excellent defender. Bertrand gets in ahead by virtue of his attacking ability, and the fact that he’s left-footed. 6/10 David Silva (Manchester City) A hard choice, given how well Alexis Sanchez has done in his first season. I just love the way that Silva plays the game. Not his greatest season, but such quality when he does play well. 7/10 Cesc Fabregas (Chelsea) He has not been out of the world, but when you look at his passing stats they show he has been one of the most influential. There’s no one better in the league at what he does. Getty 8/10 Nemanja Matic (Chelsea) For the most part he has done a brilliant job for Chelsea. He tailed off a bit towards the end but, at his best, does a great job of allowing Fabregas to play and protecting the defence. GETTY 9/10 Sergio Aguero (Manchester City) The top goalscorer with 26 goals despite having extensive injury problems. Again, not his best season but still the most dangerous forward in the league. 10/10 Harry Kane (Tottenham Hotspur) A great achievement to score 21 league goals when his first start in the competition came on 9 November.

Lloris has said in the past he wants to compete in the Champions League and speculation continues to mount over his future after Tottenham again failed to qualify for Europe's premier competition.

The France international is reportedly high on Louis van Gaal's list of summer targets, as a replacement for David de Gea, but Courtois refused to comment on Lloris's future.

"Does Hugo Lloris need to go to Manchester United? It's not for me to say," he added.
