Pants conceded one goal all tournament so he'd get the green light from me.

Because he played today and because its Wigan in the final then Yes.

But don't get some bumming his performance today, he almost cost us a goal first half that Kompany bailed him out for. The save from Ba was straight at him. Did well to flick it away from Matas feet but would expect any premier league keeper to have got it. Also one huge mix up when Nastasic rightly left it for him to come and get but he was rooted to his line.

Of course he should play in the final.

If Hart's got a problem he can cry into his shampoo.

Yes! The jolly green giant deserves to play in the final!

I don't think there's much of a gap between Joe and Pants. I'd almost reckon we play Pants in all matches with more physical forwards and teams who live off the set piece.

Mancini said there is still 4 weeks to have a think but Pants will probably play.

It looked like Hart stayed at the side of the pitch to congratulate each player individually at the end of the game

classy but I bet it won't get a mention

Was there much difference in his dealing of the cross today than that of hart on monday? if keepers were dropped after misjudging a cross we would need a whole lot more keepers in the game, his height made that save as mata's feet possible and he judged it perfectly

if mancini picked him against chelsea cant see him not doing so against wigan

Re: Did Pantz do enough to warrant a final appearance

Of course. If he can do the business against Chelsea, with all due respect to Wigan he can do it against them.

This.

There is a big difference between Hart and Pantilimon.
He pulled of some cracking saves today, but he stayed routed to his line after his flap in the first half, there were a couple of occasions when he could have come off his line and taken the pressure of the defence.

I dont want this to seem like I am slagging the big guy, but Hart is in a completely different league.
