Hart - I'm not there yet

Joe Hart is targeting hard work to nail down a place for Man City and England after declaring: "I don't feel established yet."



The 23-year-old has dislodged Shay Given as the No. 1 at Eastlands, starting all seven Premier League games this term.


He has also found favour with England boss Fabio Capello following the World Cup debacle, starting the last three internationals.


But Hart, who joined City from Shrewsbury in May 2006, feels he is not certain of retaining his place in either team and must put in the hard work to impress.


The shot-stopper told the Daily Mirror: "I don't feel established at all yet.


"I still feel quite new to City, even though I've been here a long time.


"I class myself as new and I'm also new to the England scene, so I've got an awful lot of work to do to try and nail down a place."


Hart also insisted there was no animosity between himself and Given after he dis-lodged the Republic of Ireland stopper as Roberto Mancini's starting keeper.


He added: "It was totally cool. We both felt it wasn't down to me doing anything to him or him doing anything to me.


"It was all down to the manager."
