It hasn't been a happy return to the Premier League for Hart

A poor spell in Torino coupled with a miserable return to the Premier League in West Ham colours has seen his stature in the England squad take a massive beating.

He was dropped from the previous 15 games by the Hammers before returning against Burnley on 10 March, but his chances of making it to the World Cup now dangles by a thread.

Joe Hart has been the Three Lions' no.1 choice in goal since 2010, guarding in the net in every major tournament since then. But those days look a distant memory and the likes of Jordan Pickford, Jack Butland and debutant Nick Pope look set to take over the mantle from him.

The 30-year old has although been called up by Southgate for the friendlies, his chances of coming on to the field look less likely. And making it to the World Cup squad, even less so.
