Aren't they all injured at the moment? So it's his to lose.
At least we'll still hear him shouting from up there!

In our early foray into the Champions League the game against Borussia Dortmund he made 7 or 8 world class saves, I shall never forget that match, there were other great games....the save from Gomis ( I think) at Swansea was extraordinary and against Barcelona.
Things have moved on...
Thank you Joe and good luck.

All the best to him. He played an important role for us for many years and has a great collection of medals to back it up.
Pep was ruthless with him and Bravo clearly was a mistake, but Ederson is the perfect keeper for our system and distribution was never Joe's strong point.
Good luck to him at Burnley. He has a great opportunity with their other 2 keepers injured to establish himself as their first choice keeper.

A key player for us at times, and a fistful of medals from his career with us. I can't help but feel he fell short of his potential and he knows it, he could have broken the record for appearances with us if he had been able to adapt.

Well played on your decade with us Joe. Before Pep joined I thought he would be certain to be kept on. How wrong was that prediction? Great shot stopper on his day, one of the best there is at that aspect of goalkeeping. But modern goalkeeping and especially under Pep is so much more. And sadly, Joe could not or would not adapt and thus was shown the door. And his two spells on loan haven't been the best for him.
Hope he does well but his career is very much on the slide I fear.

Definitely, and against all odds we got a 1-1 draw and it was all down to Joe Hart.
We were played off the park that night !

Thanks Joe, it's been emotional.

Joe "hopes" he will be fondly remembered by City fans.
He's really not the brightest bulb is he?

Not so sure we should be naming a pitch after him, really why? And doing that stuff for Yaya last May for him to shove it in our faces, embarrassing actually..... What will happen when Vinny retires, will the stadium be re-named the Vinnyhad?
