Given or Hart

Hart should be given his chance to prove hes good enough, age dosent come into it as they say 'if your good enough your old enough'

The way I feel right now IF Given is fully fit it has to be Given as number 1. IF the club want to go for the title they cant take any risks in seeing IF Hart is good enough. Time will tell as they say which Hart has loads of time. Maybe a year or 2 down the line Hart will be the Number 1 at the moment he plays back up to Given. The thing is he wont be happy with it being number 2 so it wont surprise me IF Hart looks for a move around Xmas time if he hasnt got a look in at the team. Still think Hart will be a great keeper and we should do everything to keep him at the club as he will learn a lot from Given this year.
 
Just had a West Ham fan on my Facebook page giving me shit that Green was better than Hart on last nights performance I thought Hart did well last night . Hart for the No1 spot for me this term think for the future because if he's on the bench he'll want to go
 
Given should be our number one, no doubt in my mind, its just a case of trying to convince Hart to be patient for another year. I always say this, but if Given were English there wouldn't even be a debate on who Englands number one should be, he'd have got the shirt off Seaman and would still have it now.
 
Tricky. I'd go for Given as I trust him just the little bit more. Don't know what goes through Bobby's mind - is he going to play one of them in the League and the other one in cup games? Will be difficult to keep them both happy.
 
Last night was the first time I'd seen Joe in a full 90 mins match since he went on loan over a season ago. Sadly I thought his main fault hadn't improved - he doesn't command his area well enough for me seeing as he's a tall lad at 6-5 and there isn't a "presence" about him that the really top keepers have. Maybe that will come with time and experience - he's still a baby in goalkeeping terms - but I would question whether he should be our No.1 in what is a vital season for us.

That leaves us with a problem as Given is not fully fit yet and there must be questions about how the shoulder injury - the 2nd one he's had - will affect his confidence, even if it's only sub-consciously. Do we need to bring in a keeper??
