joe hart

[stony]

Was looking for something else and came across this.

England goalkeeper fucks it up with his defender allowing the striker to score.

The resemblance is uncanny!

That is uncanny indeed!

Spookily uncanny

Was that Mark Wright a young international centre half who was involved?

You just know there'll be hysteria in the media tonight when the team news is announced. "JOE HART AXED FROM TEAM TO FACE NEWCASTLE". He deserves to be axed, but it annoys me that there'll be people stupid enough to think he's actually been dropped tonight.

The irony of those saying we should sign Casillas who himself has been dropped to the bench because of poor form.

Think a lot of people are letting sentimentality get the better of them tbh, including the city establishment.

Hart was poor through most of last season, and this year was a big year for him. He had to get back to his best. Instead he got almost twice as bad. I don't know. Statistically nobody in the premier league has made more errors that led to goals than Joe hart in the last 18 months. City isn't one player, and I know most fans cut hart a ridiculous amount of slack in a way they don't Dzeko or Kolarov or Nasri when they were in bad form. Wanting to give Joe infinite patience, I don't know, because he's english? Because he was great in 11/12? , even if costs us 15 points over the season ( already cost us 6) just doesn't make sense to me. Its not what champions do.

I would imagine there's a decent crossover between the people that defend Joe and the people who pine for Mancini every time we lose or draw a game. The ironic thing is I don't think there's a game we've lost this season where Joe isn't the reason, Cardiff, Villa, Bayern (got outclassed, but different game if Joe does his job and doesn't let the goal in right at the start) and now Chelsea. Yet Pellegrini has so far done what these fans want, even as it has a direct effect on our results and possibly his job security, which is to give Joe time to play through it. He started Joe against Everton in the face of media criticism and Joe has rewarded him by costing us the game in a vital 6 pointer against the team that very much looks like it could win the title this season.

I stuck by Joe last season through poor form, because I thought he was world class, I thought that he would play through it. But he's got worse this year, and the mistakes seem to be getting more idiotic, more costly.

I think it would be negligent of City not to go for Casillas, Valdes or at least Caballero this January. If we don't we won't get near the title, and tbh, with Joe in Goal even being vaguely in touch in January isn't a sure thing. You can't afford sentimentality in such a key position. I'm tired of him throwing the game away for us, again and again and again. Liverpool iced Pepe Reina, once the best goalkeeper in the PL, because his form dropped and they're the better for it. If Begovic was in goal for us instead of Hart this season, we'd be top of the league.

Good post. Although Joe hasn't been solely responsible, a good keeper would have prevented Cardiff and Villa's second and third and Chelsea's winner and we would have been top during a period of transition. Coming on the back of Joe's performances last season then dropping him is clearly the right thing to do. But for those who still don't agree think about it from another point of view. If MP sticks with Joe and the errors continue then MP's job is on the line.If he selects Pants and Pants screws up nobody could blame Pellers as it's not his fault both keepers have let him down and he could not have been aware there was such a major goalkeeping problem when he was appointed.

it;s not a good post at all. His fact in the first para is fuckin made up

not one person can come on here and truthfully say pants did not play very well...unless of course joe and his family are members on here, lol

He did but I still believe that joe will come good. The goalkeeping position is a very different position than any other. Drop joe and that could destroy him.

If it does it means he is not very good. You need to be mentally strong to be a top class player, not someone who is destroyed when dropped.

I disagree, i think he needs to go back to basics in order to regain his confidence. Coddling him will only weaken his resolve by painting over the cracks. What he needs is tough love.
