Bring Back Joe Hart

[abu13]

It would have been better all around if Hart had been sold rather than loaned out, at least then we wouldn't have people grasping at straws hoping he will come back.

Bravo will continue to be our No1 and I suspect we will be talking about him in a more positive manner by the end of the season.

Bravo is gashly out of form right now. But saying Joe was a better shot stopper than Bravo is just following a false narrative.

Stats from the last 2.5 seasons.

On their average days, Bravo is a better shot stopper than Hart. The problem is he's way out of form right now.

Not good enough for Burnley and Sunderland? LOL ffs. Barcelona would have him back in a heartbeat if they had a choice.

Playing a risky game posting facts on here :)

He is not out of form he is just bad,comparing them across 2 different teams,different leagues with teams that play completely differently is meaningless

Just watched a re run forwards were gash should have scored 4 instead of missing chances. as for the defence how exposed was Hart left no wonder he didn't make an attempt so definitely not the keepers fault.

LOL. Lallana's goal was a pea-roller from about 25 yards. My mum in her wheelchair could have got it.

How do you know this Karen, did you watch him before he joined City?

I didn't save for a few games here or there for Barca and Chile so haven't a clue how good or otherwise he is.

The only thing I have to go off is stats and look at his personal honours as well as team honours he has, they all point toward him being a very good keeper, so logic dictates to me that he must be out of form.

Don't know if this has already been asked but would Joe come back to us now if we wanted him back?

There is out of form and then there is one season too many like David Seaman - only time will tell.

He is 34 and should be at his peak,so far he hasn't even come out or spread himself for the 1 on 1's,basic stuff,he doesn't command the area or any of the sweeping since he got sent off,dodgy on crosses,you can't judge how him on past teams in different countries,even pep says he is finding it hard here because of the long balls and it's always in the air,bravo won't be used to it either and is struggling,i hope he sorts it out as i said earlier,i don't want any player to fail as that means we won't be winning much
Joe has said he is not coming back

Yeah you're right. Joe plays football while Bravo were playing ping pong in Barcelona.

But seriously, we can compare goals scored by forwards with different teams and different leagues.
Why not saves for keepers?
Denial runs deep within you.

He better fucking hurry up then as we're almost half way through the season.

People are going to judge Bravo on the dross he's serving up in a City shirt. I don't give a flying fuck what he's done elsewhere, in the same manner I don't give a flying fuck what Aguero did at Atleti. He will be judged by us, week in, week out by what he does in front of our eyes and if it's shit, it will be called shit. The same as every other player.

Him being a supposed excellent keeper for a million years and everyone (who oh so obviously watched him extensively before he signed and played 70 odd times for Barcelona) perpetrating that point does not change the fact he's shown nothing of that form since August or whenever.

He spread himself against Leicester, beaten by two very good strikes, granted against Chelsea he didn't.

I don't think he's nearly as bad as some are making out, that said he's yet to impress me, I'm just willing to give him a bit more time before joining the baying mob.

If you want to do stats then do bravo at barca and him here so far then we can see if he is indeed struggling here

 

[bennyboy]

The only real howler I can think of from Bravo in the league that cost us a goal was at the swamp.
Compared to the rest of our defenders he is not our main problem.

At the games he should be fully supported but on here we can say what we think

I never suggested anything to the contrary.

I am after all just telling you what I think.

We're man city we'll say what we think

That's half the point though, although he has made more mistakes that haven't led to goals, he's not doing the basics right. Whilst they're not glaring howlers (through the legs, dropped in net, fumbled etc), it's quite clear to see he's getting the basics wrong and should be dealing with much more than he has been doing.

@karen7 , bravo is 33. He turns 34 in mid april, so i dont know where the fact that he is 34 comes from.

Please. Re-read my post. But this time please do it while taking off your joe-glasses. I clearly stated twice that he's out of form.
