Re: Pope or Hart?

Both should go and we should get in another reasonable BACK UP keeper. Hart - Thanks for trying and stepping in when Pope and Heaton were crocked, it didn't work out sorry, good luck. Pope - Are we a team that can afford to leave 15million+ salable asset on the bench for potentially a whole season?...

Re: What if Heaton Had Been Fit All Season?

I can get the Pope argument, but Heaton stays on his line as much as Hart does. I don’t see how that affects how the defence behaves in front of him. The defence is worse this season in goals conceded. The “sub-stats” behind that are that we haven’t made fewer saves, clearances, tackles etc. Where ...
