- Manchester City is my team - until I fucking die.
:-) Fair play to you.Fair enough, we all have opinions, yours is just as valid as mine, he’s not been great recently it has to be said but Joe is still a great keeper in my opinion, hes Low on confidence, that’s obvious, sarcasm however is not a good trait when it comes to commenting on City players who have served our club well... !
Honestly, I wished that Joe would have had a much better time having left City. In years past he's been a tremendous shot stopper and has contributed greatly to our success.
But he's never exhibited the kind of on-the-ball skills that a keeper playing the way that City play under Pep absolutely needs; Willy didn't have these skills, and unexpectedly, even Bravo's play from the back was a major disappointment.
Our system works best when the keeper is essentially another outfield player, giving us an immediate 11 v. 10 advantage against most sides. We're so lucky to have Ederson at the back.
I wish Joe the best - but he really does not fit the way we play.
