Worst Goalkeeper

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

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.

49 years of watching City "live" Dibble/Suckling without a shadow of doubt. Dibble probably cost our club more points than any City player I know.

When TC first arrived, he had a slight injury and Dibble had the jersey. I’m sure IIRC he was playing that well that the fans were chanting to keep Dibble in nets! Then Coton showed what he could do.
edit I give you exhibit A. Are we being unfair to Dibble?

A game infamous for the beginning of the end for Paul Lake.

Bravo by an absolute mile for me. Came with a good reputation, replaced a legend in Joe Hart and was dreadful from his first appearance (nearly throwing away a two goal lead at OT single handedly) pretty much to his last.. For a long while you could almost guarantee if he had to face a shot, we would be conceding and often we’d only have one shot on our goal. I’d love to see a ratio of his saves per shots faced. I’d honestly guess upwards of 7 shots faced in every 10 ended up in the net.

A lot of Blues we’re stubborn IMO and supported Bravo as they had defended Pep’s decision to get rid of Joe, but the truth is he was consistently abysmal, the worst I have seen.

There seems to be a lack of knowledge on here about Dibble or younger fans just carrying on the myth. Dibble helped us get promoted. Had a great season helping us stay up in the old first division under Kendall. When Coton was signed most blues were outraged at him replacing fans favourite Dibble. Turned out Coton was a different level but initially Dibble was great for us and also an able deputy for TC. Was only when we were in the championship and Dibble played once every 6 months that he became a liability
