Claudio Bravo - 2016/2017 performances (continued)

I was optimistic about him improving but this is ridiculous now. Our defending is awful but it looks like Bravo is letting in every shot on goal.

Needs to be dropped.

Willy should start next game so that we can at least maybe get a draw.
 
NOT HIS FAULT!!!! Jumping slightly upwards and tilting like he's stuck on a nail (think catherine wheel) rather than diving makes plenty of the goals his fault, why the fuck can't he dive sideways? No surprise to me that our better performances have Cabellero in net.

Two people have quoted my post...

You have smashed into me like I have defended Bravo and the other poster took issue with the fact I was calling him for conceding 4 in 4.

It certainly is a very fucking odd site this at times.

Just to clarify it for you as you can't have read my post fully, I am not a fan of Bravo but I do try and be fair.
 
Regardless of whether he was at fault for particular goals, a world class keeper is supposed to make world class saves occasionally. Joe Hart used to save us at least several times a season. I can forgive mistakes from a new keeper getting used to a new league with an unfamiliar defence, but how many times this season can you point to Bravo having won us some points with a save he made? Let alone a world class save that most keepers would have let in.
 
As much as city are relying on Aguero , De Bruyne etc to score a game changing goal, we need a keeper to pull off great saves. we are fighting on 3 fronts and need a world class keeper. I am a qualified keeper trainer and, trust me, this guy struggles with the basics.
 
Imagine going to a new league where you have never managed a game, and the first thing you do is get rid of a captain come golden glove supremo.
 
First time today where i thought he was genuinely poor.

Didn't lay a glove on anything and at some point, for his own and the sides sake he needs to be rested and Willy given a go.
A sensible post,if he gets battered against spurs his confidence will be shot for the season,let willy have the shirt for a while,he can't be worse
 
Needs taking out of the firing line. His record is that of a very good goalie but he isn't showing it here. Him and stones in the same team has seen our worst results.
 
He is totally useless when it comes to saving shots. He doesn't narrow the angles and he doesn't make him self big. He simply waves at shots as they fly past him into the net.

Indeed, if Pep can't see how crap Bravo is then I seriously need to reevaluate how good Pep is.
