Ex-Man City keeper: Claudio Bravo needs a psychologist!

Andy Dibble believes Claudio Bravo requires help.

The Chilean has made a number of high-profile blunders since arriving at Manchester City from Barcelona for £17million in the summer.

Former City keeper Dibble feels that manager Pep Guardiola should employ a sports psychologist to assist Bravo and help him adjust to English football.

“The pace of football in this country is so much faster than in La Liga," he said, according to The Sun.

“He's finding how sad and lonely our position can be — that is why he needs real help now.

Pep Guardiola needs to have talks with him and the goalkeeping coach and create a plan of action.

“He has to try and do all he can to help him and using a sports psychologist would be a good idea.

“Claudio is only 33, he still has a lot of years left in him. What he needs is help — guidance and hard work on the training ground and support off it."
