Super Joey Hart?

He's clearly feeling the Pep heat, compelled to try and play out more from the back.

I had no issue with the pass to Fernando (the midfielder remember), he had plenty of time, and his technique is at fault.

Hart did likewise in the derby, however, passing to an unaware Demichelis, who under hit the pass pack, which resulted in Joe having to rush out and clear, injuring himself in the process.

Joe did little wrong last night and he kept his long punts to a minimum. Good to see him throwing out quickly a couple of times.

We have plenty of issues and money we need to throw at situations before Joe becomes the priority. Get who we need, and then if we still have money left, then push Joe with competition.
Good point about the quick throws in particular one peach in the second half out to Navas I think??
 
Last night's debacle is the exact reason why Pep is trying to get Ter Stegen. I love Joe with all my Hart but he has these brainfarts everytime he has the ball.
Ter Stegan would of made the same pass though.

This is how Pep will want to start from the back.
 
I think we are judging Hart's pass in hindsight following Fernando's ball watching. Yes Otamendi was in a better and safer position to receive the ball, but seriously, I haven't played for 3 years but would have taken that ball from hart and laid it off to another blue shirt..it was a piece of piss, especially to someone supposed to be a professional footballer. Some people on here just have it in for Hart for whatever reason....distribution, won't catch, can't dive to his left, isn't a leader. He's an outstanding all-round keeper and best one-on-one stopper bar none...,,There's always a flavour of the month with the press regarding keepers...which is then picked up by others...it was shilton when i was growing up, now it's neuer, even though he always has a mistake in him, and now it's the obsession that keeper's have to be sweepers. If Hart has it in his hands he's perfectly capable of throwing it if a runner is available and if it's a short pass, then that's also not too difficult to work on with defenders in training, surely, don't need to spunk 20 million on a replacement.
Don't think this is a get Joe day but rather an analysis of a particular incident which had and may still have important ramifications. I don't dispute that he is in general an outstanding keeper and is an integral part of the City Fabric but he does have issues. He just does not look comfortable with ball at feet and as has been pointed out earlier appears to have developed an obsession with punching. For what its worth I would be very reluctant to get rid of him considering that he probably still has a few years of improvement left in him.
 
I'd always prefer to see the ball go wide but Hart to Nando to Ota could and should have worked

Or Fernando could have just easily entered the penalty area to receive the ball in which case it would have meant Hart taking the goal kick again

Fernando could just have easily entered the penalty area to receive the ball in which case it's not allowed and would have rendered Hart taking the goal kick again, my question is, would Fernando have had the nous to be tactically aware of that option, we'll never know ;-)
 
The people blaming Hart are the same ones who moan he just lumps it forwrad. He cant win.

Absolutely not his fault, Fernandos touch and lack of awareness then was the issue. Fernando had a good game after though fair play play to him.

Brilliant penalty save to add to his list.

Another top performance in the big ;eague by Joe. He does love the CL doesnt he.(Needs to stop punching though and start catching)
 
Five seconds before the penalty was awarded "hart decided to Punch the ball out "wide when the easiest option was to catch the ball run to the edge of his box&hold onto it for another 6seconds!! (that would have resulted in no chance of the Psg team getting in our penalty area. The second goal any goalkeeper worth his salt would have caught that ball also!! The 1st goal was comical "at any level in football the golden rule is once you've scored is to keep it tight for5 mins" instead silly bollocks INVITED pressure on our defence by passing it out with undoutably 1of europes elite strikers loitering on our box(incidentally give zlatan them chances again &he,ll be walking away with the match ball)
