Joe Hart (joined Torino on season long loan - Official)

[kaz7]

Weren't you outed a week ago?

Yes

 

[moenchengladbach blau]

Let's imagine a scenario. Pep says to Txiki a few months ago "I'm really not sure about Hart. See if x, y or z is available."

So we ask about Ter Stegen and the price is very high but Bravo might be available at a better price. Pep says" OK but let's see what Hart can do first before I decide what to do". He starts work and decides fairly quickly that Hart really isn't up to it and he can't work with him.

So Pep says to Txiki "Bravo. Do it" and he does. What Hart does is then up to him. If he wants to keep his England spot then he needs to sort something out quick. Not our problem.

And if he decides not to go we are left holding the baby. Perhaps literally.

Perhaps but it can still be better conducted.

Agreed we know there needed to be a clear out with pep How many have we sold that needed to go. Fuckin none.

Final day of transfer window. Manchester city charitable football foundation will be providing players on loan and paying wages to other wealthy clubs. It's nuts.

The more I read about this bloody soap opera, the more I think that City have still not shed the 'Typical City' image and our first trophy under the new regime will be yet another cup for yet another cock up.

I don't know who is responsible but once again we are becoming a laughing stock as we blunder along saddled with a player we apparently do not want because he supposedly is not good enough playmaker decided either at the last minute by a manager who has been a long time in the coming, supposedly a good friend of the DoF yet apparently they do not speak about such minor matters as getting rid of the England goalie and/or paying him huge wages for either not playing or for playing for someone else.

Can anyone, even the blind faith guys, honestly say that this mess would be allowed to happen any where else at a big club in UK or Europe? Even the utter clown Woodward does not get involved in such messes. We have several highly paid players who if they stay and are not used will cost us a fortune or if they go we will take a big hit with us continuing to pay their wages.

Get a grip City FFS. What happened to the revolution?

What a great steaming pile of gutter bilge.

It is a continuing cock up. Full stop, end of, finito

At the rags you have Schweinsteiger, Darmian, probably Phil Jones all on good wages who the rags would like to move on. The fact is you can't risk moving a player on before you have a replacement. That is good management. If the selling club won't sell when you want them to there is the sum total of f*ck all you can really do.

The fact is, if Joe was so highly rated there would be a queue of clubs looking to take him and a week is plenty of time in football to sort out a move if buyers are there. The fact is that clubs clearly don't rate Joe Hart as highly as some of our fans do..

Apparently Everton ITKs say Koeman met Hart & didnt like him as he came across as arrogant? Does anyone here know if they really met?

 

[dave_blue12]

Perhaps but it can still be better conducted.

Often not. We don't know all the facts and it is uncharitable to judge.

It's Friday, relax, all is well with the world of MCFC. I'm looking forward to more of Pep's total football on Sunday.

Pople are naive if they hink players arent constantly getting offers from clubs. Hart hasnt been hung out to dry ffs

Yes he has

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Yes he has

How?

 

[Lancet Fluke]

Boooo Ho poor old joe having to sit on the bench because he's no longer good enough.
Sure the 130 large a week will still be Hitting his bank account.

Can't believe some of the people on here slagging off pep and txiki and the club.

I don't particularly see why Pep, Txiki or the club need slagging or for that matter why people have to slag Joe or even come out with stuff in the tone of your first sentence.

 

[moenchengladbach blau]

because Barca played silly buggers trying to keep both their keepers, but our ploy worked and they had to pick one (Ter-Stegen). We then took Bravo.

Barca seemed to get a replacement in with a minimum of fuss and we well get to see him soon if Barca continue to have a 'cup goalie' system.

Let's see if we can now get rid of Hart and the other highly paid 'discards' without making losses that make us look foolish.

 

[SWP's back]

And we have not begun to address Nasri, Yaya, and a fewer less but highly paid lights yet.

You've no fucking clue what is or is not being addressed.

 

[SWP's back]

Foxtrot Oscar, Big Oscar and think before you post.

I think you'll find the vast majority replying to you are wishing you'd fuck off, not Oscar.

 

[moenchengladbach blau]

What a great steaming pile of gutter bilge.

Glad we agree although I would not quite use terminology like 'gutter bilge, to describe this latest saga by City. I much prefer Franny Lee's term 'cock up'.

 

[SWP's back]

Oh bore off you pillock.

You handwring all you wish about money that isn't yours.

I'll sit back and enjoy what appears to be the best transfer window we've had in half a decade.

If Hart is no good why are City messing about trying to get rid in the last few days of the transfer window. As I said elsewhere there were some critics on here last year but those number seem to have grown in the last few weeks. That must be what exposure to Talkshite and tabloid press does to them.

Yes he has

No he's not. He's been told he's not got what it takes to be a Pep starter and wasn't picked a couple of weeks ago. If his agent hasn't been touting him around he needs a new agent.
If he didn't see what was needed at the start of the year when everybody in the ground knew that Pep was coming that's his own fault. Pep even said what he wanted from a keeper in his book, so assuming he can read he should have known what he needed to do to impress. Being Englands No.1 isn't enough for this guy you have to be what he wants or at least look to change. Maybe in training Hart just doesn't have it.

As for all those talking about his 100% pass completion anyone on here with two legs could have made those passes and it was his standing tall for that shot in the second half and his clearance that were more impressive. If he doesn't want to make himself into the keeper Pep wants (and nobody else seems to want him) then he will sit in the stands, as a spectator not a sub.

Awww bless. Perhaps when the third year starts at schoolyou will learn about free speech, democracy and other difficult concepts like them.
