Joe Hart says he will continue to cherish every moment he plays for
England after putting in a match of the match display against Slovenia. Hart
looked back to his best form on Tuesday night as England secured a 0-0 draw in
Ljubljana, turning in a near-flawless display and producing arguably the finest
save of his career.
It was a far cry from the difficult summer the 29years old endured for England at Euro 2016, letting in soft goals against Wales and England's conquerors Iceland. He said “The summer was difficult. I am gutted about how the summer went but it has gone now, football moves quickly. You have to move on. I have done the same when I have won things, I have done the same when we have won leagues. You have got to keep fighting. I will continue to keep fighting for my country. I cherish every moment I play and long may that continue. I just love diving around in goal. Being able to do it for my country is amazing and I remind myself of it every single time I pull on an England shirt.”
Much was made of Hart's frenetic demeanour before matches in the Euros, when he seemed to whip himself into a frenzy before stepping on the pitch. Southgate suggested he prefers the goalkeeper to be calm and Hart has seemingly ditched the histrionics in recent matches.
He said “I am trying to grow and I am trying to improve every single day, I would have loved to have saved the two shots that I should have saved during Euro 2016 but they are gone. I am going to try and rectify that by being in a good place. As a goalkeeper, you can't chase situations. On Saturday against Malta, I didn't have anything to do. Against Slovenia, I did. You have got to let the ball come to you as a keeper.”
