    Think Hart commands the defence better and isn't glued to his line.

    Hes really finding his feet again here. No question he's a great keeper.

    Forster is the better shot-stopper but he doesn't suit Ange's play out from the back style, his kicking was often rotten.

    Hart wants to be here, gets it immediately, is vocal and is the better all-rounder IMO even if he may let in a few that Forster would keep out.

    In this team Hart as FF isn't as good with the ball at his feet..

    FF is definitely a better stopper, Hart is more of a leader tho, which is absolutely needed just now.

    Forster.

    But I do like Hart.

    I just think FF was a better keeper. I trusted him completely.

    Hart has a few blunders in him.

    Forster is better, but in this side I would probably go with Hart.

    Hart, probably. Far better leadership qualities and he’s made some fantastic saves already this season.

    Have to say I’m very pleasantly surprised at how good he’s been. Expected him to be vocal and an organiser, but thought he’d be average when it comes to shot stopping, commanding his box etc.

    On terms of ability, Forster edges it for me, one of the best, if not best, goalkeeper I've ever seen at Celtic.

    At the same time, Joe hart took a massive pay cut to come here, and that's something I've admired from the guy since he joined, he's a much better leader than Forster ever was too, and is a fantastic shot-stopper in his own right.

    That’s mental man, two of the things he’s been known for his full career. He has other weaknesses but that’s always been his biggest positives.

    Hart?

    Aye he was. But he’s been kicking about on the bench for Burnley and West Ham the last couple of years. Plus the old low and to his left thing.

    Just thought he was pretty much done performing at a high level.

    Just weird that you picked the two things he’s best at rather than his rather well known scattyness at times or something like that. Or passing cos Pep slated it was a popular one

    Had no idea what he was good at any more. I’d barely seen him play a game in what felt like years.

    Hart doesn’t suit playing out from the back either.

    When both players were in their prime Forster couldn’t even get near the England squad…hart was their number 1. Bit of confidence behind him and hart could be one of our best keepers in a long long time
