Anyone who still thinks Hart is good enough for City clearly didn't watch the 1st half vs Stoke.

I know people are not convinced by Caballero but that is because he has not been given a run in the team, if he got into some sort of rhythm he would prove he is miles ahead of Hart.

Pellegrini rates Caballero higher, the only reason Hart is still in the team is because he knows dropping him would upset the fans who have some sort of blind loyalty to a keeper who used to be good but is now shit and they don't want to admit it.

Hart is holding us back, open your eyes City fans.

The reason Hart is still in the team is because he's been comfortably better than Caballero, who has been absolutely dogshit every time he's gotten a chance.

Has he been better though? It's almost a default answer for City fans "Joe is better" From where I'm standing, he rarely makes crucial saves, constantly makes mistakes that cost us points and his distribution is league 2 standard. Whenever I've seen Caballero play his distribution is always top draw and makes good saves. Sure we concede more goals when Caballero is in goal but that is because we put out weaker teams in cup games.

I thought Joe was going to go on to be the best keeper in the world at one point but he has fallen from grace massively and most City fans just don't want to accept how average he has become.

Whatever, If you think Caballero has made good saves, or even a decent amount of saves compared to the shots he's faced I'm no even going to bother arguing

I'd bring in Clichy and Yaya for Kolarov and Fernando otherwise I'd keep it the same. Hopefully see Wilf come on at some point.

I hope we can play like we did in the second half against Stoke, quicker passing/movement and clinical finishing.

Haha you must have seen a different Caballero than me because the 1 I've seen looks garbage and is nowhere near close to challenging Joe Hart.

As I said Caballero has zero confidence because he is playing the odd game here and there. If you think Hart's mistakes are not the main cause behind our shaky defence then I won't even bother trying to convince you either. Keep thinking Hart is still good enough for City and enjoying the Premier League and Champions League titles we don't win because of his incompetence and complete mediocrity as a goalkeeper. If that is your opinion then fair enough but it won't be long before you realise what a lot of City fans are gradually realising: Hart is bang average.

Put it this way, Joe Hart has the backing of the fans, manager, English media, plays week in week out and still frequently makes mistakes. Whereas Caballero is 2nd choice, he knows the fans love Joe, barely plays and when he does play it's with 2nd string sides in the cups and yet there is barely anything to chose between them.

If Caballero was 1st choice playing week in week out and had the backing of the fans & manager he would probably be one of the best keepers in the league. But we all know he won't get the chance to prove it because the fans will cry if their beloved Super Joey Hart is benched.

I'm just speaking the truth. I don't care if it's not the popular opinion. Hart is a weak link and if he wasn't English most City fans would admit that.

I think we have got the message #borednow

Can we just talk about the forthcoming games not the relative merits or otherwise of out goalkeepers

Cheers
