Wouldn't mind if someone could elaborate?Briefly. Caballero was a good back up. Penalty heroics v Liverpool in the League Cup Final.
RE: Hart. It's out there. People know.

Pep was the first manager to be given the go ahead to drop Hart. He even benched Aguero after signing Jesus.
The fact of the matter is that Bravo did a bad job overall as City keeper in a grossly underwhelming first season. I don't particularly like Hart's demeanour and I never have (looks like a fan of rugby) but it was a poor replacement.
If you don't know, ask around and you'll find out why Hart really left.
I do know why Hart left probably more than you tbh at the time I was in the club on a weekly basis
So I am well aware
I still maintain Bravo was unlucky the fans turned on him and he lost his confident
I believe partly because he replaced Hart who was the poster boy (look at him now)
Bravo post injury regained some confidence and did well in the Cup for us
I accept he didn’t have a great time at City but he certainly isn’t the worst keeper we’ve had by a long stretch
Neither Hart or Bravo are a patch on Ederson
Ive seen this mentioned on this site for 4 years now. I’ve asked about 30 posters directly what these reasons are, and not one has given a reason.Briefly. Caballero was a good back up. Penalty heroics v Liverpool in the League Cup Final.

Been waiting years.Wouldn't mind if someone could elaborate?
Been waiting years.
Maybe today’s the day I get to join the “oh don’t you know about Hart” club.
Hats off to him for several penalty triumphs on the way to cups, but in game, I would have rather had any other keeper in the league.Sorry but it's Bravo for me.
He was absolutely useless and wasn't cheap either. It's debatable whether a 14 year old would be better than he was at his 'peak'. If love to see a best of Bravo at City as it would be meagre pickings.
He came from Barcelona and had a reputation and big fee and all he managed to do was save the odd penalty in a cup final - which I could do.
He was simply like a ghost in net and for everyone saying he was decent and that Dibble etc were useless I'd love to see how many shots v saves Bravo did.
He was a terrible signing, and no other player comes close pound for pound.
Bravo never stood a chance in all honesty.I do know why Hart left probably more than you tbh at the time I was in the club on a weekly basis

And, as sure as night turns to day, I still haven’t heard back. Again.All I heard is he smashed up a telly or something after that it's all nudge nudge, wink wink, it's all out there, everyone knows. Well no, we don't.
It was the right time to replace Hart, but Bravo was shit in the league.Bravo never stood a chance in all honesty.
The minute he replaced the blue eyed boy England’s number 1 the media went after him big time.
He made a few errors in his early days and was never allowed to forget these.
What upsets me most is the way some of our fans turned on him thanks to the media driven agenda against him. To his credit he behaved like a model professional throughout.
At least he got some redemption towards the end of his stay.
To say he was a poor keeper is utterly laughable. You don’t get to captain your national team to Copa America victory without being good...
Those who think he was our worst clearly weren’t about in the 70s / 80s or have short memories!
