Joe has always come across as very pro-City, when he’s been a studio pundit.He’s a legend in his own head.
He had all the tools to be one of the best but there were a few technical issues in his game that he didn’t or wouldn’t rectify. He made some amazing saves but also so outlandish mistakes. That one vs Southampton where it went through his legs was such a basic mistake that should not be made for a prem keeper. Maybe he thought he was too good to work on his weaknesses but he was brutally exposed a number of times and he never seemingly worked on it. Which is either arrogance on his part or neglect of the coaching team.
He did have some great games for us and never really says anything too negative towards us in the press so I have no real ill feelings towards him but he could and should have achieved so much more than he did rather than scratching around the likes of Torino and Burnley and spurs on the subs bench.
He is good-looking and very articulate, and could be a useful asset for the club, when his playing days are over.
I wish him all the best at Celtic.
