Calling "Calling him awful is simply ludicrous" is simply ludicrous.
How about saying that the vast vast majority of people have little or no confidence in him and that is awful?
I agree. How many people were happy when he was named in net in the Capital One Final (Liverpool fans excepted)? Yes, he was the hero in the penalties, but he's been nowhere near good enough in the games he's had. Maybe if he was named number one he'd be more confident, but starting him in the odd have is a disaster and the change to playing out from the back hasn't helped.
Hart has a lot of faults, but he's a better keeper than Caballero in every way. However, after that interview, I can't see how he can play him. Big test for Pep, as I think he's made a mess of this and we'd better get a replacement in the next couple of weeks otherwise we're relying on Hart's personal pride and professionalism to not just stick two fingers up until January.

Here is the clip of Pep talking about Hart, it doesn't look good for Joe.
Looks like he's lost some weight.

Who are these vast majority of people?
He isn't awful and I predicate that with not only with what I have seen him do but more importantly, those that whose opinions matter also don't believe he is.

Well the vast majority on here are so used to seeing Joe that they become offended by the notion of a new keeper. Caballero was fantastic at Malaga, arguably in the top three keepers in La Liga.
Hart will be sold because he doesn't fulfil Peps mandate, and if Pep choses to start Caballero then that's absolutely fine by me.
And for me, that is the nail on the head. I said it the other day that sentiment will win us nothing.
I do believe Joe is better than Willy, in the traditional keeper sense, but Willy is a far better keeper than what some on here are willing to give him credit for.

Pep?Has anyone seen enough of this guy to say he'll be an upgrade on Hart?

Go on. How has pep made a mess of this.
If Joe is a better all round keeper than Willy, why are you getting bent out of shape as Pep will obviously know this too and Joe will be our #1. Everyone's happy :)

The last few seconds of the video implies that his future is uncertain to me.

Probably watched them just as much as anyone else, maybe less if Bayern were playing on the same day

I hope you are right. I hope if Caballero plays tomorrow that it isn't an utter disaster. I'd love for him to be decent.Who are these vast majority of people?

I also hope we have someone lined up to replace Hart on Monday....Wednesday at the latest. :-)

Not true. He saw ter Stegen when he came to see Barcelona completely dominate us in 14/15 on the way to the treble.
And given his obsession with football, and the fact he's a Barcelona fan, I expect pep has seen him quite a few times over the last few
Years.
And in the run up to playing against Barcelona him and his team would have done hours and hours of analysis on any Barcelona players they didn't already know about from their 4 years their.
Why would he do something that silly? Just coz you want us to win doesn't mean the Manager for the opposition shares your enthusiasm :pThanks Karen. Wonder if Wee Davy has the balls to come and have a good go at us tomorrow or will it be a double decker job

I was happy. And had no doubts about him. The claim against him is that we don't keep clean sheets when he is in goal. It's a silly accusation, seeing as a clean sheet isn't strictly the goalie's doing. And seeing as he often plays in cup games with backups and rotational guys it's no surprise he givesup goals.I agree. How many people were happy when he was named in net in the Capital One Final (Liverpool fans excepted)?
