I accept the reasons why Pep ousted Hart, even though I'm not convinced by this obsession with playing out from the back. Teams are working out how to neutralise it, to the point where I just think it presents more risks than potential benefits. How many goals have Man City scored through this sweeper-keeper thing, compared with conceded as a result of it? But Pep's committed to it so either Bravo improves in that area or he needs to get someone who's better at it, and I can't see him wrenching Neuer from Bayern. I was critical of Bravo at first but I'm starting to feel sorry for him now. He's being made to look incompetent, which he obviously isn't.
