If they do, it will be the most amazing performance ever by a goalkeeper. And his distribution will be perfect.

(even if he lets in 6, all directly started from passes by him)

The version of the deal by our market manager, on today's interview

The goalkeeper was a need, we had 2 to 3 names to work on. The first one we tried was Viviano but Sampdoria has armored with the renewal of the contract. So we decided not to take whoever but a GK who gave us guarantees. A few days after the end of the market I spoke with Claudio Vigorelli, the agent of Viviano. He told me, look, I am a friend of Hart's agent and told me that the City is in this situation, you may put yourself in. I said I could try it on one condition: the name should not to go out, because I could not not compete with top teams, and I wanted a confrontation with the player. I spoke with him and the agent. I warned Mihajlovic this opportunity and then it all started. The guy was followe by Sunderland and other British teams. I spoke with the guy and told him: what do you want to do? He told me he wanted to have an experience in Italy, that staying in England for another team did not interest him. At that point intervened Lombardo, who knew him, to make sure of his motives. We did not want someone who came here to be a tourist. Hart made us right away a great impression, was adamant and determined, otherwise he would have changed his mind because other teams were interested. I would say that the operation was fantastic because, according to our canons - the City pays nearly 70% engagement - we did an exceptional shot. The formula? It 's just the loan also because there was no time to think about a different formula. But if in the end things do well, we do not foreclosures idea to sit down at a table to talk with Manchester. I think the City, if Hart will fine by us, will not want to keep a player against his will. Personally the idea of loan does not scare me, when there is the will of the player, the formula takes a back seat.
 
To be fair they were lucky to be ahead that freekick that Torino scored should also go down as a goalkeeping mistake it went in near the center of the goal.

Thank you for clarification and cross referencing Gaylord.
Having been absent from the forum this afternoon as a result of engaging in a normal life I failed to notice that said mistake by Joseph had already been covered on another thread and I am grateful to you for drawing my attention to this.
As always your assistance is greatly appreciated.
Yours
Leonard

I trust your transition to a normal life wasn't to taxing for you, Leonard.
 
As goalkeepers are, still have many years ahead of him. I hope once he gains experience and technique he comes back to us in 3-5 years time. Aside the occasional blunder, Joe is a very solid and reliable keeper. If he builds on what he already has, he will be better than Bravo at 33; in the sense of how Pep wants his keepers to play.
