Claudio Bravo

[ADegenerate]

im just wondering if Hart is to loud in the dressing room? Seems to me that he has not had the same time to learn anything but whisked away to fast... think I read somewhere here that Pep isnt to big on strong leaders? Might be totally wrong here but thats an alternative thought to "only" not being good at his feet... especially since hasnt had much time... judging one player from one half... seems extreme even from Pep... for me it feels like more to it than that!

What do you guys think?

I think you might be a little bit on to something. Mostly, it's just that he can't do the job we need of him. Unfortunate, but it is what it is.

First couple of minutes shows why Pep wants him.

Might need to keep the defibrillator handy at the Etihad this season

tbf citywatch post every single rumor going.

Fair enough, I don't do Twitter, but I do listen to their podcasts.

In a fortnight we'll know one way or another.

20+ million for a 33 year old goalkeeper is madness

20+ million for a 33 year old goalkeeper is madness

33 isn't exactly old for a keeper.

 

[MeatHunterrr]

most reports saying we will pay around £18m

33 isn't exactly old for a keeper.

Of course it is. Keepers play on til their late 30s usually without problems, but how many really stay at their highest level? I'd say we will get 2-3 years out of him with the first 12 months being an up and down kind of experience.

It's all well and good having a keeper who fits the philosophy but the Premier League is different. Keepers are closed down much more and keepers are physically battered at set pieces. Being great with the ball counts for little if he looks a reck every time a ball is launched into the box. I just think its a risky decision to be honest and we have other pressing issues in other areas.

Cech 12m last year at age 33. Market has jumped again. Anything under 20m is a good deal
