As I said, this sin't the thread, but my last word on Bravo in here
Are you a season card holder!! If you are I suggest you open your ears and speak to the people around you
Where I sit in East level 1, the majority believe that we've hugely regressed in the keeper department. It doesn't matter in what way the manager wants us to play out from the back. The simple fact is that if the opposition have a decent effort at goal the chances are it will will result in them scoring. We're gifting chances so it's fucking nailed on that Bravo will concede. I honestly don't believe we'll ever see him play a blinder
Just as one example, look at that Crystal Palace goal the other week.
If Pep wants someone good with their feet in goal who can pick a pass but isn't bothered if he isn't good enough making saves, then he should just chuck Yaya in nets (no I'm not being serious with that suggestion)
Most are putting Bravo in their predicted team because they know he will be first on the team sheet. Surely you can grasp that!
1. Yes I am. ST holder and your observations of those around you is not shared.
2. I agree we are conceding too many chances, which is more the issue. With the best will in the world, we are as equally likely to concede no matter who is in nets.
3. He is in most team selections for a reason..
4. A clown and fucking useless, he is not. Some fans however...

5. Pep is sticking with Bravo, this isn't negotiable. You can flap about it all day long, but he's our number one and will be our number one. People thinking otherwise need to wake up.

Bravo's shot stopping abilities, or lack thereof, are totally overblown and statistically he's in much the same situation there as Joe Hart last season. Meanwhile, he has the highest pass completion percentage of any keeper in the league and is genuinely involved in goal-scoring/key attacking buildup. This is pivotal to Pep's style of play.

That's all an argument for the player thread though, not that those who dislike Bravo are likely to be swayed in their views by objective fact.
 
I'm firmly in the Joe Hart camp but we are where we are and Bravo is the man, like it or not, we have to get behind him and trust the best manager on the planet to pick the right people and bring the results in as the team adapts and his vision for us is realised. How about leaving it at that?

He's made over 400 club appearences and has 110 international caps so clearly has some ability. He hasn't had the greatest of starts but no worse than De Gea in his first season. I think we should cut him a huge amount of slack until he's played behind a settled defence for more than a handful of games.

But Bravo is 33 years old. De Gea when he started with Utd was about 22.
I think Bravo is useless and will continue to cost us dearly. Has he had a great game yet? Dont think so. The only mitigation is that he has a very poor defence in front of him.
 
We all know Leicester need a win so who is it the team there going to get 3 points off? Please let's not have a typical City. Massive game for us this one and we owe them from last season.
 
The foxes will have 2 attempts on goal and score both from long balls into the huge space behind whilst we are dicking about on the halfway line
27 and 91st mins

Cant help but think you might be right. Actually think it will be 1-1 but we need a win. Without Otemendi, Ferna Aguero it wil, be tough.
