West Ham loanee Joe Hart is reportedly set to miss out on a place in England’s World Cup squad.
Former Chelsea striker Chris Sutton has blasted West Ham United loanee Joe Hart for his reported reaction to finding out he had been dropped from England’s World Cup squad.
It is believed Gareth Southgate told 30-year-old Hart that he would not be joining the squad on the plane to Russia this summer after a number of desperate performances while on loan at West Ham from Man City.
The Daily Mail claim Hart reacted “furiously” and has blamed David Moyes for Southgate’s decision, with the Scottish manager leaving Hart out of West Ham’s last three games – with Moyes sacked on Wednesday afternoon.
But Sutton believes Hart only has himself to blame after failing to make Southgate’s side, which is now expected to include Everton’s Jordan Pickford, Stoke City’s Jack Butland and Burnley’s Nick Pope.
Hart has conceded a huge 42 goals in just 23 games this season, managing to keep only six clean sheets. A mini revival with excellent displays against Chelsea and Arsenal gave Hart hope of an England call, but it is unlikely to materialise.
The goalkeeper will instead be sorting out his future this summer, with the Hammers unlikely to keep the former Shrewsbury Town stopper at the London Stadium. He has a year left on his Man City contract.
