Joe Hart (joined Torino on season long loan - Official)

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

Glad this is sorted and we can move on, all the rumours were no good for the team or Joe! Nothing but best wishes on him joining his new team!

I was just thinking if we are paying most of his wages, why not send him to NYCFC? If we are going to help any club let it be CFG club. They really need a good keeper, I suppose Patrick doesn't want to axe Saunders though, he needs to start being more ruthless this could be a big season for him the way it seems to be going over there.

The structure of the league won't allow this. MLS teams have to pay the entire salary of a player on loan. With NYC having 3 designated players, there's no scenario they could take him anyway. MLS allows you to lower the salary cap hit of one player to bring them below the Designated Player barrier but that is being taken by Mix Diskerud (US National team player) and the player's salary needs to be around $1m at most whereas Joe's would be somewhere around $8.5m.

Best of luck Joe. In a way its good knowing you are technically still a City player, who knows what might happen (small hope).

 

[Kompany is King]

Good luck Joe.

A year sunning himself in Italy and then sort his long term future next summer. Decent solution. All the best Joe.

You should think about what you have just posted and withdraw it.

Though admittedly it was difficult to see the incident, from the 3rd tier of the Colin Bell stand, where I am situated,I understood that's what the OP, (who I presumed was in a much better position to do so) actually, saw, and was literally, offering an opinion, on that basis.

If I misinterpreted quaterman's post, or comments therein,in any way, then I certainly do apologise to him unreservedly.

Good luck Joe, hopefully he will return to the club next season.

But it doesn't sound right that Torino will only pay 50k out of the 140k !

All the best Joe, it's fucking cold in Turin but people are great!

Lombardo is assistant to Mancio's old mate Mihajhlivoc there, interesting.

Good luck Joe.

Bloody hell, as little as the that?... thats pocket money when you consider what NFL players earn
