The only comments I have about Joe are; I can't think of many other top keepers who've been relegated to number 2 for any reason other than injury. However, in respect of Hart, Hughes didn't fancy him, Mancini dropped him, Pellegrini dropped him and now Guardiola has dropped him. There doesn't seem to be a long queue of suitors looking to sign him so maybe he's not quite as good as we'd like to think? I also don't hold with people cracking on that he's rubbish, as he's been brilliant for us. If his time at City is up, I wish him well wherever he goes (rags and dippers excluded, obviously).
I agree with that.
For me, Joe has been instrumental in taking us to the level we were at. We now have started the journey to the next level which, I believe Joe is not able to help us with and hence we are looking for a more suitable person.
Joe has found his level and now needs a club which can exploit that.
