Don’t get the love in for Pickford either. But in all reality either of those players, Hart and Pickford, are only likely to be third choice and given their respective careers and ages what would be the point of taking Hart. May as well give the young lad the experience

Pickford is not a number one, too inexperienced to recover if he makes mistakes. Modest Jack Butland is the best on form but again inexperienced, as is the Burnley lad. Hart should go either as first choice or first reserve. Anyone who agrees with Baghead about anything shrinks in my estimation

Jack Butlamd has been very poor over the last few months. I don't know what has happened to him but his level has fallen through the floor. Joe and Pickford are not great either. That Burnley keeper, Pope, looks the best bet to me on current form.

We have outfield players who are better in goal than the England choices and a goalie who is better than the England midfielders. Good times (for city)

Delphino needs to thank nobody. His attitude earned him his chances this season. Class.

Pep saw a left back in him and gave him the chance there.

Deserves some credit as well for being so adaptable and working hard despite some big setbacks with injury.
A very good player for England to have given his versatility and ability to have 3 back line players from the same club.

As for Joe. It really is sad, but hardly surprising.
We won't even get a fee for him at this point and will have to pay even more of his wages next season.
Someone will give him a chance, but who in the PL as he couldn't perform for a mid table team that was bottom table for a good part of the season whilst he was their no. 1.
A Championship side? Maybe Gerrard will take him for Rangers with his best mate Rooney, or maybe if he wants CL, Celtic? I know that seems harsh, but you have to wonder at this point about his level and confidence a manager will have in him at this level.

What happened to Joe?
A lightning descent. Two seasons to fall from No.1 with City to God knows where.

Any interest from the clubs coming up? At this rate he'll end up at a Championship side.

Think is he was shit for us last few years it's not a dramatic fall in form, blues never wanted to see it. And it's all down to attitude for me. Hope Pickford doesn't go the same way

I honestly think wages will prohibit that for the lower end of the Championship, and a desire to compete will deter teams at the top. If an offer doesn't come in (that he likes) from the USA, China or Turkey, I really can't see him going anywhere until his contract expires. Maybe a loan to NYCFC would be in the best interests of everyone involved.

I could see that happening. Might be a good move for all concerned.

He's on the plane for the pre-season tour. Seems there hasn't been any genuine interest. I do feel sorry for him in a way, but if it's true that he's demanding high wages and that's what keeps putting clubs off then he needs to sort his head out, or get a new agent. Lower premier league to mid-Championship side would give him chance to rebuild a reputation, but he's got to accept it's going to be a tough couple of seasons ahead of him... good job keepers last longer than outfield players
