With the scores locked at 0-0 and their place at the head of the Premier League table already in jeopardy, Manchester City fans really did not need to see Joe Hart making a mess of a back-pass maneuver.
Aston Villa player Rudy Gestede was attempting to pass the ball back to the goalkeeper from a throw-in, when Hart tried to control the ball with his thigh rather than his foot. Some would say that the striker put too much pace behind the pass, but we'll leave that to you to decide.
The game ended up in a stalemate, meaning that Arsenal could take over poll position in the table if they can get a win over Tottenham Hotspur later this evening.

Gestede take a bow! He throws the ball back to Joe Hart so hard that Hart miscontrols it and concedes a corner. That was well played #AVLMCI

Can I say that Joe Hart is a colossal moron of the highest order.

Gustede took a throwing and aimed at Joe Hart which he rightly did, he's not just gonna drop it for him is he?
