Hart must play in the final

[tiggsywiggsywoo]

Regarding second choice keepers I would have had every confidence in say Pantilimon. However Caballero is a wreck. It's simple play him we lose, play Joe we stand a chance. Cup finals don't come round every day or season for most. You have to give it your absolute best. Finals should be played balls out to win.

Because it is relatively meaningless compared to progression in the Champions League and ensuring a top 4 finish.

If this is the clubs view then we might as well pack it in now. Barca, Bayern and Juve take domestic cups seriously and so should we, silverware is silverware and it all adds up.

It's one game? You are prioritising two competitions we have little chance of winning over a one off cup final at Wembley? I was disappointed with the selection yesterday and going out of the FA cup but to do this on Sunday would be criminal. It's a final at Wembley, we was trophyless last year and this is our only realistic chance of winning something. A cup is a cup and I never thought I'd see the day we would be happy to throw a final. It's not even a choice either, it's not play Hart Sunday and lose to Kiev and finish outside the top 4? We could play Hart sunday, maybe win the cup and still progress in the other two?

Still at risk Bob.

Pellegrini isn't dropping Hart due to 'risk'. He is giving Caballero the oportunity to play, because otherwise he would never play.

Bang on ! Why did we bother selling tickets for a game if they aren't all in ? Chelsea didn't rest coutois so why do we need to rest hart

He is not our best keeper but I think if you have an understanding with a player you stick to it unless something extraordinary happens

A manager must respect his players.

Something extraordinary happened on Sunday. He played extraordinarily shite.

Simple, Joe Hart is our number One keeper, valued club player, who on merit is No1. You wouldn't drop Aguero for your reserve striker in a Cup final so why should Willy play? IF and a big IF, Willy was on form he would still be the reserve keeper but as he showed yesterday he is far from on form. Drop him, forever.

hart must play, not the clown.. New back up keeper next season is a must.

Caballero really was dire yesterday

Horror flashbacks to big Joe Corrigan at his jitteriest.... and that. 6 game loan spell by Barry Siddall, in the mid 80's.

Going off topic a tad, Does anyone remember when Joe had that blinder at Molineux that, arguably, saved his career at City?

I always thought that it was around November 74, but Joe is always quoted, in interviews, as saying it. was (sometime) in 1975.

Playing willy in the final after yesterday to me is a total lack of respect for the cup final, the fans and the other players. He is gash he knows he deserves to be dropped. Those of you chunnering on about respecting him and being loyal need to grow up a. It is a final and you pick you best team b. Professional Sport is about winning that's the priority not protecting willy caballeros ego. He is owed nothing. He had a chance yesterday to swipe the spot for the final and he had a fucking nightmare AGAIN. If mp picks him for final what little, and it is little, respect I have for him will evaporate.
