Has anyone noticed that almost all of the teams in the champs league have good goalkeepers : Kasper; anyone think he is better than HartcChamp

I'd probably favour Joe over Kasper but maybe through bias. I don't think there's much in it as there wasn't in the days they were competing at City. Both are decent keepers. But there's not many true world class keepers about and those that are are aging. Of course it is now complicated by the fact that we want a footballer too now....

I'd have Kasper back.
Has a good pass ratio (pep) and is a decent shot stopper/ presence.

I don't think there is anyone around atm of buffon (prime) class.

I'm not sure Neuer is of Buffon class. I've seen him be as much a donkey as Hart at times.

Is liking music a decision? I tend to either like it or not naturally without thinking. I can't remember choosing to be a city fan either. It just happened before I had any sense. Of course it was a good thing but I can't say it was my decision. Choosing a keeper is a decision to take. But even then many are ruled by their heart in choosing Joe these days. Even when they criticised him for his distribution. We need another new keeper I'm afraid. But I can't decide who!

It's a problem of Peps making unfortunately. We've gone from a situation of having a good keeper, not the best but a good one despite his limitations to having two average keepers.

To buy a top notch keeper we'll be looking at upwards of £50 million. We really should have kept Joe and spent that money on better defenders which was the real problem area. Now we'll have to spend big on the defence and keeper!

He doesn't have to do that. I'm sure Joe could be persuaded to stay. Though I still don't think Pep has any inclination towards that at all. Joe just doesn't fit his bill.
