Joe Hart fighting to keep England number one shirt

England goalkeeper Joe Hart admits that he is always fighting to remain the first-choice shot-stopper for the national side as he is wary of the challengers.

Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart has revealed that he is still fighting to remain as England's first-choice goalkeeper.

The 27-year-old is expected to be the number one at the World Cup, though Hart is wary of the challenge coming from Ben Foster and Fraser Forster.

Hart has said that being the first choice under Roy Hodgson is an "enjoyable position", but insisted that he is still pushing himself to remain ahead of his challengers.

"I'm not there yet, I'm still pushing hard," Hart told reporters. "We have two great goalkeepers in the squad. We have some fantastic talent.

"Ben has had a fantastic season and Fraser has kept clean sheet after clean sheet at Celtic.

"I'm fully aware of what's around me and it's an enjoyable position to be in. I'm just fighting to keep it."

Hart has earned 40 caps for England since making his debut in 2008.
