I'll give him till end of summer before he is hounded out of England by fans, TV pundits and the print media. The risks he is taking are ridiculous and you could see at the lane that what happened last night was coming.

As for Pep, he'll be gone in 2 years also.

Hopefully there will be a few more cock ups. He's basically Gomes but without the outrageous world class saves.

Problem is that if Joe Hart was playing in a Guardiola team he's still be making the same mistakes, probably even more so I wouldn't t blame the keeper, Pep needs to realise that not everyone can be as good as Manuel Neuer, I just don't get this obsession with rush keepers, it's such a stupid tactic as it puts your defence under pressure especially when you don't have the players to play out from the back.

Our very own Hugo boss is a rush keeper and it doesn't seem to bother our backline that much.

There's a huge difference in what's been demanded of Lloris compared to Bravo.

Not really, the only difference is that Pep is slavishly dedicated to passing out from the back, we do the same but without the same level of obsessiveness. Both teams employ high lines (ours is more aggressively high), and rely on the keeper to rush out and clear the lines.

So, to finish off, it is not a stupid tactic if you have the right guy in goal, as Spurs fans we've seen the benefits of that tactic and how it calms the backline to know that balls over their heads aren't the end of the world.

That's my point, just used poor terminology.

Pep comes in, knowing what Hart's attributes is. He then tries to work with him in training, but soon finds out that it's no use. He then discards him and brings in Bravo, who's better suited, and a proven top class keeper.

In a country where the club coach and national team coach has taken three years to figure out that Ferguson may have known what he's talking about when he threw Rooney under a bus after his last game as manager, that no nonsense attitude and belief in your own judgement is fucking refreshing.

We play out from the back as well, but we're well drilled and have better players in defence. Let Man City get some time to get their act together.

Actually, don't let City have time to get their act together. Fuck 'em
