joe hart

Not surprised the Hart Groupies won't support Pants - who deserves our full backing.

Joe will have opportunities with England and in the Cup at Leicester to show he is back to form and to compete for the number 1 slot. Hopefully Joe will Come back to his best.

There are tougher breaks such Joelon not getting a sniff of a game despite being a good player.

Not really he cant play a high line as he doesn't have the pace or the positional awareness needed despite being a good defender they are his weaknesses. Just like Pants and his have a flap at a corner every game

Fair points. Joe also needs to learn how to help a high defensive line and not get caught in no-man's land.

It's taken a long time for the penny to drop about Joe with many of us. Everyone has an opinion. I for one was calling strongly for the signing of a keeper in Summer because I could see the deterioration in his game throughout large parts of last season and it was strongly rumoured that Mancini was ready to replace him. There is no guarantee that Joe will recover his form let's not kid ourselves about that - he is not a great goalkeeper or even a very good goalkeeper right now - and Manchester City must have a great goalkeeper at the level we are at and wish to remain. I believe and hope Pellegrini will move for a new keeper in the transfer window .

England keeper Joe Hart is a "unique" talent who should not have been dropped by Manchester City, says Peter Schmeichel.

Would that be Peter Schmeichel the United supporter, desperate to see the scum win the league? I think it might be.

This is the thing though. Has Pelle thought about that. he has never played that sort of game in his life so was probably never being coached as to how to do it as it was rarely needed

Right or wrong to drop him we don't know, the Manager thinks its the right choice so lets back the manager, Joe has to learn from this and get his mojo back, I think he will.

A sad state of affairs when a bloke who doesn't particularly like joe is showing more support and loyalty to him than most so called blues on here

And where is the loyalty for Pantillimon isn't he a City player as well?
he has never let the club down and was treated appallingly in the FA cup Final which was another Game where Hart played and never covered himself in glory

I don't care who comes out and defends Hart imho most of them are looking towards England
I only care about City and I for one think Hart deserved dropping not just for his mistakes but also for his terrible distribution, which hasn't got any better in the last two years, and also for the fact that he has terrible command of his area in general and the fact he gets beaten at his far post way too often

Hart has massive flaws in his game and he is only viewed as the best in England because this is the worst era for English keepers in fifty years Hart would be now where near the England set up in any other generation of English keepers

People should be getting behind Pantillimon and let Hart worry how or in fact if he ever gets back into the first team

If I recall correctly,the week of the FA cup final pantilimon had done a newspaper article stating he was leaving the club in the summer. I think this is why he was dropped from the game. I expected him and was calling for him to play in that game because he had played all the games so far And there was no reason to break tradition. It was of his own making IMO

I understand with what you're saying but if we were to judge every players game based on performances last season then we would be getting rid of about 6 players that play for us right now Aguero, Silva and Nasri included and look at them now.
