Juno 2 Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Manchester City manager Mark Hughes admits that he may allow goalkeeper Joe Hart to leave Eastlands on loan. "It might be to both Joe's and the club's benefit if he did go out on loan," Hughes told City's website. "Joe is frustrated and obviously wants to play. We will look at his situation in the coming weeks. If we sell Greegs that is. I like Alexander the same as everyone, but I think Hart would be a great person to have here for a year (even permanent after that since if we're being honest he has no future at City with their kind of cash).

Creampuff 22,628 Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I wouldn't say no.. But I can't see it happening unfortunately.. I recon there'd be sizable wages involved and other EPL teams might seem more appealing. Wee Kasper from City could be a shout though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Pointless as he's be back-up to Neil Alexander, and, the whole point of going out on loan, is to get games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Hart is a better keeper myself. I also think he is. But does Alexander deserve to be dropped? He was absolutely faultless in that run-in.

Muff 245 Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I don't see the need to replace Alexander, especially for a season - since signing, and, playing for us, he's not put a foot wrong. Probably the last position we need filling, unless it's to replace McGregor. Alexander is only 31, and, if he continues to perform like he has, then should keep the gloves for the forseable future.

Juno 2 Posted June 3, 2009 Author Share Posted June 3, 2009 Well aye, it's obviously in the case of McGregor going, which is the most obvious of sales next to Ferguson this season. I'm not saying Alexander should be dropped, but it'd be good to have another keeper just as good to challenge him for (practically) free. He's going to go on loan somewhere. Better us than a Birmingham or Wigan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManchestGer 347 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I don't think Joe Hart would be a bad shout actually if we sell McGregor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goianegra 4,686 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 He's class, and I would take him, but Alexander doesn't deserve to be dropped although I think Hart is better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyCR1 1,517 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 He is a great goalkeeper, i say hes just as good as if not better than shay given. I honestly dont know why man city bought Given when they head him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_RFC87 761 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Great goalkeeper. But I wouldn't displace Alexander for him. I reckon he'll go to Birmingham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGM_72 3,700 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I too rate him very highly but I also think that Alexander doesn't deserve to be dropped and at 31 his best years are still ahead of him as Goalkeepers generally peak around this age and can keep going into their very late 30's early 40's at a good level of performance.

Klos 39 Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Bring Graig Gordan to Rangers No chance of that happening in the near future, he'd have to be willing to take a huge wage drop and imagine Sunderland would want to recoup a fair bit of the money they spent on him. Even if we could afford their asking price, it'd be money better spent strengthening other positions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 54,203 Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Hart's a decent prospect, but I don't see what all this clamour is about tbh. We would be better placed if we sold McGregor and signed a young, yet talented keeper on a permanenet deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
