Ederson or Hart. Who gets into the team of the decade?

For me, it has to be Hart. I do think Ederson is the better goalie, clearly so on distribution and commanding his area and perhaps slightly so in shot-stopping. But to vote for Ederson for City team-of-the-decade would be like picking a man-of-the-match who only came on after 75 minutes!

Nice spin, but would you now be willing to answer the question put i.e. other that shot stopping / 1v1 what was he good at?

You don't have to put spin on what is a monumental Prem and England record. Joe's main strength has always been one-on-one situations. Lloris has always made far more mistakes than Joe, but gets away with it. Lloris is regarded as world class.

Never have I said otherwise regarding 1 v 1s (and shot stopping). The WC tag gets thrown out far too often for me and, usually after just one or two decent performances. It's as if Pundits have to ensure a WC player exists in every position!

Lloris imo was a good keeper, but not WC, neither was Joe
 
Love Eddie and I think he's a better keeper than Joe, but in terms of pure history I'd pick Joe because he was part of our first two Premier League title winning sides and the FA Cup win. So for now, Joe Hart, but I'm sure (hope!) Eddie goes on to win a lot more with us.

I get the feeling that Joe Hart is unfairly being airbrushed from recent history, mainly because of his sudden exit from the club due to the change in playing style under Guardiola. But Hart is our most successful keeper. He's won 2 league medals, 1 fa Cup and 2 league Cup medals and has also been England's nmbr 1 for the best part of 6 to 7 years. Its a shame his career has took a nosedive but, along with people like Kompany, Aguero and Silva; he should be remembered as a player who was part of the new dawn of this fantastic club.

Ederson though is a different keeper from Hart... Calm, commanding, confident and assured. I never get nervous when the ball gets to his feet because I know he will deal with it efficiently and he will distribute it with the coolest of touch to a teammate. His shot stopping and box presence are up there with best.

So, if you were asked to pick your team of the decade who would your keeper be?
