Pep Guardiola's 5 worst signings to date

#4 Claudio Bravo

Bravo has struggled for consistency at City and currently finds himself second-choice

Back when Guardiola took charge two seasons ago, he replaced previous first-choice goalkeeper Joe Hart with Barcelona's Claudio Bravo - in a move that would either pay off and earn plaudits, or draw criticism and questions over the Spaniard's decision-making.

Bravo made 22 Premier League appearances that season, conceding 28 goals. Averaging 1.04 saves per goal conceded, it did not make for good viewing and he was regularly criticised for his inability to command the box - whilst making needless mistakes when under pressure, something he was specifically brought into the side to avoid.

It comes with the territory, but Bravo has made quite a few glaring errors during his spell in Eastlands - which ultimately cost City in their attempts to mount a genuine title challenge that year.

His inconsistent form meant that Guardiola needed to find an adequate replacement and Bravo's disappointing shot-stopping abilities saw his manager enter the market for a new number one goalkeeper - Benfica's Ederson - ahead of their title-winning campaign this past season.
