Southgate backs Joe Hart
Jun 13, 2017
England boss Gareth Southgate says Joe Hart is still his No. 1 goalkeeper.
Hart's England future was recently put in doubt following last weekend's World Cup qualifier against Scotland.
He conceded 2 late free kicks during the match, and England needed a last-minute equaliser from Harry Kane to force a 2-all draw.
The speculation intensified after Hart was dropped for tomorrow morning's friendly against France in Paris.
However, Southgate played down the significance of the move.
He says it was never in line to play against France, as he wants to try out his backup 'keepers Tom Heaton amd Jack Butland.
