I feel really sorry for Joe. A young, potentially great, keeper should really be learning from both experience in the reserve team and also from another experienced keeper who is in the first team. Hart has been thrown in at the deep end. Not only that, he has an incompetent defense in front of him so he is being thrown into situations where he has to make very very awkward decisions ans sometimes he has to make a decision based on the lesser of two evils.
I am a big believer that he will be a top class keeper.....in the future. I really think he needs a good mentor. Not saying that we are going to get Buffon or anything, but somebody with a lot of experience would be a great buy. I was really excited at the prospect of Given coming to us. That would be a great move for both the club and for Joe.
