4 golden gloves in 6 seasons in the premier league. What's that if not world class?
Mancini's defense?

Regardless of us getting Ter Stegen or not, the continued media speculation linking us with many keepers is likely damaging to Hart's form and confidence.
He went through a similar blip a few seasons ago following speculation. Hopefully he will bounce back like he did last time.

We seemed to have had 3 fit experienced CB's available for Sunday, Denayer, Mangala and Otamendi but none were played. I don't know if any had knocks?the shambolic defense is also part of joe hart.
a keeper is more than just a keeper he should command the defense! organise it read the game. it is not an easy task thats modern football.
Having a "makeshift/experimental defence doesn't breed confidence and stability.

We can't have it both ways - he can't be great because of Mancini's defence, but dire because of his own failings.
He was a part of that great defence, and now he's part of our poor defence. His weaknesses are simply more exposed along with the weaknesses of our defence (and of England's for that matter).

Mangala is supposedly on his way out and was left behind for that reason. That's the press speculation at least.We seemed to have had 3 fit experienced CB's available for Sunday, Denayer, Mangala and Otamendi but none were played. I don't know if any had knocks?

He may well not have played them in fear of picking up an injury - just a thought

Seems very strange preparation if they are currently not injured and are to be involved in the first game next week.He may well not have played them in fear of picking up an injury - just a thought
