What a match! Both teams seemed quite equal even tho City dominated for 40 minutes.



How's Fernando doing this season, Citizens? I hope with Guardiola he gets to show his worth and the mastery of defending in the midfield.

Well we got the win. A massive win for us as well. We keep our 100% record and Utd lose theirs. Plus Guardiola improves his already good record against Mourinho.

That said, the next transfer window can't come soon enough. We desperately need a new goalie! Could also try out one of the reserve/youth team goalies, they can't possibly be any worse than Bravo. I can only assume Barcelona having the best 3 in the world meant everyone was looking at how awesome they were instead of how crap Bravo was when he was there.

You must be English to think Hart is an excellent keeper.It is Bravo's first game in a different league I may add,and won.Hart is one of the so called top keepers that have been benched by every coach City had.He is a decent keeper at best,a good back up.



Nobody said anything to him when he dyed his hair?

I'm not saying Hart is an excellent keeper, but based on that performance he's a hell of a lot better than Bravo! And they won despite Bravo's presence!

So one game and he is a hell of a lot better?Let see how the season goes before we make those claims and seeing Bravo won so much with club and country,let's wait and see.

Well I (and no doubt many others) were already skeptical about him replacing Hart in the first place and so far he's only reinforced that skepticism. It seems pretty obvious that Guardiola will keep on playing him regardless so I can only hope that it was a one off poor performance and that he's usually much better. Here's hoping...

If I had Bravo I'd definitely bench Hart. No comparison, really. I have no idea who those skeptics are, just give Bravo sometime to adapt. He is better than most goalkeeprs, and he definitely was the best goalkeeper at Barcelona. 



Phew! I'll gladly take them three points but I got to say that was a soft penalty..unfortunate for Southampton.

Probably one of the best they ever had.

You sound like this is your first time seeing him play.There should be know skepticism when it comes to Bravo replacing Hart.You make I sound like Hart is in the top 5 best keepers.
