On the balance of things, Hart staying back now, does not benefit our club, given the constant media speculation clouding everything else. Forget EPL, Im sure across Europe there are enough clubs that will accept Hart as No.1, even now? Club is ready to fund bulk of his wages, if need be. If we still cant find a single club by Sep 1st, thats saying either Hart does not want to go or he is not that keen on playing minutes or he is not particularly wanted? Media has sided with Joe. Most players in his place, would milk the situation too. Screw England No.1 spot. Screw playing minutes. Screw the club.
The transfer market is always a Players market - most ppl here dont seem to get it. If a player wants to go somewhere, he does achieve it, 99 times out of 100. But somehow, once a blue, always a blue, who always thinks of blue's interest, cannot find a single place all over europe, to ease the shite-stirring the club is going through - that too on loan, not even an outright sale. Most players fight change in status-quo this way. Happens across the world, where the player has grown too big and has media might with him. Think Rooney for example. Him not going and media slating the club for the situation - its obvious who is fighting this proxy! IMO, the battle is open now with Txixi saying club will do everything to help him leave and he is fighting back through media. The media dirt in the past weeks is proof enough that such player power centres should not be allowed to develop inside a club - they only hold the club back long term! Think Chelsea!
