Caballero becomes a hero. And Pell's decision to stick with him is a genius decision.

Caballero is crap. Watch the semi-final against Everton again

As for Mignolet, i have read your comment saying he's crap.

Caballero is actually a solid goalie. He was awesome when he played for Malaga under Pellegrini where he was a great shot stopper. I don't think he's gotten enough minutes at City to remain match sharp
