1. Explain to me how he made the PL team of the year at Birmingham?
2. Explain to me how he had the highest save percentage of any keeper in the PL in 2011/12?
3. I'm not saying he shouldn't be dropped but for fucks sake can people please stop exaggerating and abusing him.
4. I come on here rather than Bluemoon because I'm looking for sensible debate, is that too much to ask for?
5. And his hair is so beautiful (joke!)
1. By being an outstanding shot stopper (he truly was).
2. By being sat behind a great defence resultant in him dealing with a lot of half chances.
3. Yes, he should be dropped (should have been dropped months ago really and it was only Mancini leaving that stopped him from being replaced) / the stats provided by other posters are fact and not exageration / he's a nice bloke but he deserves abuse on the subject of his goal keeping because it's so bad - I don't think any of the abuse has been personal towards him and I'm constantly complimenting him on his golden locks myself (which are outstanding).
4. You'll get sensible debate if you put a sensible point but your love for Joe exceeds any evidence in your eyes - in truth 99.999% of us were ourselves huge fans of Joe's and it's been a long slow and painful recognition of just how shite he's become that has led us, the previously loyal and supportive fans, to this common opinion). It's also the case that having reluctantly accepted that Joe has long since become a pitiful liability there's an element of frustration with those few who are so in love with him that they would rather see us demoted than accept fact . . . and if you think bluemoan's better then hey feel free!
5. He had a couple of good seasons (1 with Brum & 1 with us) and I must agree that his hair is beautiful but please accept that what happended 2 seasons ago and the current state of his folicles doesn't make him gods gift to football (true!).
"Useless cunt", "D'oh", "pitiful liability" constant childish references to his hair, accusing posters of man love for daring to defend him, accusing him of not only dropping points ( when others have been equally if not more culpable )for us but also trophies.
This is debate? Like I said if I want that kind of debate I can find it on Bluemoon with the rest of the kids.
I provided some of them stats btw.
I have also previously sayed that his form has dropped yet you constantly conveniently ignore this fact.
I have also stated I'll trust in Pellegrini, his ex-goalkeeper and his goalkeeping coach to make the call on whether he should be dropped or not but you ignore that too and come out with your usual childish nonsense.
I have also criticised him when I felt it was warranted, another fact you conveniently ignore.
He had three excellent seasons btw and the stats are there to back that up.
