I thought he was massively at fault for the 3rd goal, watch it again from behind the goal, specifically his right arm, surely it should already be out making himself big? It’s down by his side like he’s trying to make himself smaller.

I love him, but I think he could be better.
He could be as good as anyone at shot-stopping and combined with the defence in front of him and his slightly mad persona, he'd develop an aura like the very best goalkeepers do that almost beats strikers before they shoot.
In those CL games for Benfica the season before he came to us, he was an absolute wall, it was ridiculous. These days it feels like being good is good enough because of his feet.
Hard to say from the outside but you also wonder how much Xabi Mancisidor the GK coach plays. Hart went to shit under him, and most blamed Hart rightly, but I remember David Preece on a podcast saying that Mancisidor let Hart do whatever he wanted in training compared to Massimo Battara, Mancini's GK coach who was a real disciplinarian and that being the beginning of the end.
It will be interesting to see how things change if Mancisidor leaves with Pep after 10 years at the club.
Interesting take dom.
I know you follow John Harrison (who also absolutely loves Eddie ) who is critical on 1 specific aspect only where he is poor on the longer 1v1s. I've heard him on about 3 pods and he makes the point that Alisson had the same weakness when he went to Liverpool but has since been corrected. That can only be by coaching.
The third was the only goal I was disappointed in him for because he got his angles all wrong.I thought he was massively at fault for the 3rd goal, watch it again from behind the goal, specifically his right arm, surely it should already be out making himself big?

Any other criticism for last night is nonsense.
Agree and just to be clear I wouldn’t swap him for anyone.The third was the only goal I was disappointed in him for because he got his angles all wrong.

75 clean sheets in 150 games for City, absolutely ridiculous clean sheet percentage

Clean sheets are a team accomplishment though. Ther will be several games in that 75 where he didnt face a shot on target. I bleove there's even one or 2 where he didnt face a shot at all!

Oh absolutely, but he’s one of the reasons that we dominate possession and face very few shots

he's the best on corner claims. See the post 1 or 2 pages up with a chart.I realised today just how good he tends to be when he tries to get on the end of crosses.
