Think he's probably the best 1 vs 1 keeper in the world (or in the top 3), but he clearly has a weakness for getting down to his left hand side. He's had a bite of a mare this summer, but still don't think there are many better attainable keepers out there.

He's a great guy and seems really down-to-earth. Always has total respect for the fans. However, he is prone to making errors, and I'm not sure if he would be considered world class. The problem he has is that he doesn't have much to do at City or England, so we don't see that many outstanding saves. When we were under pressure against Barca and Real, he was immense.

Having said that, I reckon David De Gea is a far better keeper, and the best in the world. Don't think Utd would ever let him go, but I wonder if he would be tempted by Pep and Champs League.

De Gea wasn't even the best on the pitch yesterday let alone the world.He was directly to blame for the first,ducked out of the way of the second because he was trying to save with his feet AGAIN.Then let one through his hands which nearly led to another.He was a fuckin disaster !

Yup.

People say Hart had two bad games but that is because he made two mistakes and they are often costly for keepers, it's a very unforgiving role. Some of his outfield colleagues made far more mistakes and one's that in terms of technique were worse than the two notable ones that Joe made.
 
De Gea is not the keeper in the world. Christ, I thought there was some shite talked on that racism thread by all the Remain lot, but that comment about de Gea tops them all.

Have you seen how many bloopers Cech has made in his prem career, far more than Hart and he wears a stupid cap.

Last 4 seasons Hart has made 15 defensive errors to Cech's 7... So that's like dropped catches etc leading to goals/attempts on. Doesn't include weak left wrists and being beaten at your near post.

Hart has been a great servant to our club, but he hasn't pushed at all from when he was 23/24.. He's amazing at what he is good at but there are glaring weaknesses in his game..I'd rather have a keeper who is more rounded even if he isn't better than Hart in every aspect(like 1 on 1s etc).

Where did that stat come from.
The only thing I have against Hart is his weakness from shots to his left hand side.
Surprised he has not improved over the years,coming back to haunt him big time now.
 
Neuer is the only one out there that would be an improvement and he isn't coming.
People that are licking rag players balls on here while at the same time slagging off City players should be fucked off IMO.
 
The tone of this thread has surprised me , it appears there are a lot of our supporters on this forum who simply do not rate Joe , i wonder how many are match going supporters ??, because i see very little criticism of Joe on matchdays , granted the odd clearance goes into touch and their are some negative comments , but generally on match days , we are all behind him 100% , so maybe it would be interesting to find out how many of these posters criticising Joe actually attend games , or are they just jumping on the media bandwagon. Talk about kick a man when he is down , some of the comments on this thread are bewildering. Hes not the best keeper in the world , but he is in the top six , and will improve , keepers reach their prime in their thirties , hope Pep realises this and perseveres with a very good goalkeeper , who loves our football club.
 
One great thing about Hart is I think he can handle it. He really is an excellent professional when all's said and done. Whilst it's become clear Raheem Sterling has had issues with criticism, one would know that Joe Hart can take it on the chin and move forward. He has an excellent winning mentality, which in my opinion is vastly underrated in terms of its importance at the top level.

Whether he stays as City No1 or not remains unknown. But I truly believe Guardiola will be impressed with his determination. I think for the first year he'll look to train Hart and work on his weaknesses, such as distribution and concentration. Why wouldn't he?

Spot on. Chin up Joe
 
All keepers make cock ups ...yep Joe has made a few for England but to be honest i would rather him fuck up in goal for them than for City.
Over a season he saves us more points than he costs us. Soon as England get fucked up in any competition the press all jump on the lets slate any MCFC player.
Lets not start falling for the shit the media dish out. In Joe we trust.

I agree with all you write but would comment on your last sentence. If they are known weaknesses, why would you wait on a new manager before starting to address them? I'm convinced Joe knows where he needs to improve and is actively working on them now. Whether pep can accelerate progress in those areas is a different matter. Fingers crossed

Media slate Joe so they don't have to slate Golden Cockney Wanker Harry useless **** Kane who couldn't score against Stevie Wonder
 
All keepers make mistakes harts are highlighted even more as he plays for city,having said that his two howlers against Wales and Iceland can't be brushed away he should have stopped them full stop .ian Wright made a point after the Iceland game claiming hart seemed to be to pumped up before the game which could have been a contributing factor...
