Joe Hart played in West Ham United’s last match, but as unable to stop David Moyes’ side from slipping to a defeat.
Hart’s place as England’s number one goalkeeper, which he has held for years, is now under significant threat – with a clutch of stoppers all seemingly in Gareth Southgate’s plans.
Burnley’s Nick Pope, Everton’s Jordan Pickford and Stoke City’s Jack Butland are all vying to take Hart’s spot in England’s starting line-up.
But the West Ham goalkeeper insists that the growing calls for him to be dropped will not impact on his attitude or work-rate.
He said: “I’m not going to let that ever affect me. The position I’m in if you let confidence dip it’s going to affect you badly.
“I’m me, I’m going to keep working hard, I’ve worked hard every day of my life and I’ll continue to do that whether I’m playing or not.”
Hart has come in for criticism from all angles this season, with England and West Ham fans placing him under scrutiny.
Hart’s loan move to the London Stadium was intended to help him get back to his best, but he seems to have regressed since moving to the Hammers.
The Manchester City loanee has made a large number of errors, and has been second choice to Adrian for much of the campaign.
Hart did play in West Ham’s last match before the international break, but he was unable to stop David Moyes’ side from slipping to a 3-0 defeat against Burnley.
