Hart's heroics will help Hammers

Good to see Joe Hart get some credit for a great double save late on against Slovenia that was instrumental in securing England's World Cup qualification. He was brave to dive at the striker's feet and despite being hurt then reacted really quickly to leap up and save the second effort with his foot. Yes, it was a poor match but without Hart England could have lost. He's actually kept clean sheets in four out of five of his last games for club and country, so that should be good for his confidence. A lot of papers are still clamouring for Butland to replace Hart as England goalie, but right now he's got the shirt and he's not letting go of it easily.
