that shot of ribery,s was really fierce tho ! and right on target in the corner
if it was saved it would of been described as top class
Deary me! I suspect you are winding us up; If not I fear for your mental health!
In short Hart incompetence was the root cause of
ALL 3 goals!
For the 2nd goal and when under no pressure, he booted the ball away into the midfield and never City never touched it again until we picked it out of our net after an equally pathetic effort to deal with Muller one on one.
The importance of Hart's position cannot be over emphasised in quelling opposition pressure by selective and controlled distribution. In short the opposition find it damn hard to score if they don't have the ball. Last night we were losing the ball cheaply and not seeing it again for 2-3 minutes. A good proportion of those turnovers back to Bayern were down to his complete lack of composure and his stupidity in just booting the ball away in blind panic.
Put bluntly, his core level of ability (and I am not talking about whether he is in form or not) is way below what we need as a goalkeeper at this level of football. He simply cannot control, compose and then distribute by either his hands nor feet to anything like what is required. This coupled with his flawed ability to save shots or come for crosses is simply not tenable.
Furthermore, anyone who continues to defend his selection is doing so out of blind loyalty rather than what is best for our club. He must be dropped and considering his fundamental flaws, I for one would not be remotely concerned if he never wore a City shirt again.
