But Coton, who spent half a season with Manchester United after leaving City in the mid-90s, believes Hart can adapt to Guardiola’s style of play if given the opportunity.

“He would have known the repercussions when it comes to England’s No.1 and Man City’s No.1 for many years”.
The England No.1’s future has dominated headlines this week, with Pep Guardiola’s decision to drop him for BOTH of his opening two competitive games in charge of the Citizens having come as a shock.
Hart was with the club before the new owners took over and heavily invested in the team.
Surely he has to leave City for his career.
While Caballero starts again against Steaua Bucharest it is Barcelona’s Claudio Bravo who Guardiola really wants.
Guardiola added: “Maybe the next game it changes, maybe not”. Yet, Hart probably won’t be given the time to develop his passing game at City.
He shouldn’t stay. He needs to play somewhere. He needs to move on if he’s not City’s number one.
Once Bravo signs for City, Hart will become the third goalkeeper, something Joe obviously will not accept. Stoke City have Jack Butland.

Everton had been backed into favouritism at one stage yesterday to be Hart’s club at the end of the summer transfer window, but now a switch to Seville is seen by bookmakers as the most likely outcome.
According to the BBC’s David Ormstein, the duo have made their desire to sign Hart known, although the England worldwide favours a loan move as he does not want to be rushed into making a permanent decision on his future with only two weeks remaining of the transfer window.
Would you like to see Everton sign Hart on loan? Pep Guardiola then asked for Bravo, and things moved quickly during the weekend to get the deal done.

“That’s not how Joe has been doing it and it’s not the strongest part of his game”.
