    Joe Hart's biography

    Born in the town of Shrewsbury in the west of England. John's parents: Karl and Louise Hart worked at a local school. Hart himself was a diligent student and even became the head of his class. As a child, he played cricket and football perfectly, at the age of 11 he chose a football career, joining the Shrewsbury school team.

    Joe Hart's club career

    Joe's professional career began with the signing of the first team at Shrewsbury ahead of the 2003/04 season. After injury, the main goalkeeper Paty Shelton managed to take a place in the starting lineup. In the 2005/06 season he played 46 matches for the Town, conceding 55 goals. In the summer of 2006, the Manchester City scouts became interested in the goalkeeper, who signed him and sent him to their academy.

    Career at Etihad Stadium

    In 2006, the signing of the 18-year-old England goalkeeper was officially announced. Joe Hart made his debut in October 2006, replacing injured Andreas Isaksson and Nikki Weaver. The debut match against Sheffield United was dry for Hart (1-0). Joe went on loan to Blackpool and Birmingham City several times in subsequent seasons.

    In the summer of 2010, the goalkeeper returned to the Manchester team. This season, the "townspeople" set themselves great goals, because on the eve of the purchase of world stars. The goalkeeper's position was also planned to be strengthened, but with his impeccable performance at Birmingham, Hart convinced Italian specialist Roberto Mancini to give him a chance to return to Etihad.

    New debut and first achievements

    Four years later, Joe Hart again managed to come out in a Manchester City jersey. The new debut ended in a goalless draw with Tottenham Hotspur. This season, Joe pushed Shay Given out of the squad and gradually began to develop into a top-tier goalkeeper. Hart's return resulted in 18 clean sheets and 5th place in the championship. He received his first Premier League Golden Glove. Together with the "townspeople", he won the FA Cup - the first trophy for the team since the formation of the Premier League. In the new season, the Qatari sheikhs have significantly strengthened the defensive line of the Manchester team, having bought Alexander Kolarov and Pablo Sabaleta. Manchester City managed to play 18 matches and win the championship title.

    In the summer of 2012, the Romanian goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon joined the team, who was supposed to become Hart's understudy. However, Joe regularly appeared in the starting lineup of the Citizens in the national championship and in cup matches, simply not giving Costel a chance to get into the starting lineup. And yet in 2013/14, Joe Hart gave rise to doubts about his competence by making a few blunders against Chelsea, when Torres scored the winning goal in 93 minutes, and during the Mancunian derby, but City "Still won 4-1.

    In December, Joe Hart sat on the bench for the first time in several seasons. Kostel played three matches in a row to zero, then came out in the most important matches against Arsenal and Tottenham. Many started talking about the enmity between the Englishman and the Chilean mentor of the "townspeople" Pellegrini. At the same time, national team coach Roy Hodgson urged John to reclaim his place at the base, otherwise his trip to the world championship in Brazil was called into question. By January, Joe Hart was back in the starting lineup, while Pantilimon played in the League Cup and Champions League.

    Joe Hart's international career

    In 2005, the talented Shrewsbury keeper made his debut with the Three Lions U19 team. In 2009 he was the main goalkeeper of the British reserve team for Euro 2009 in Sweden. In 2008 he made his debut in the first team in England in a friendly against Hungary. In 2010 he went to the World Cup in South Africa, but never entered the field.

    At Euro 2012 he was the main goalkeeper of the British, keeping his gates locked in 2 of 3 group stage matches. He played all the qualifying matches for the 2014 World Cup, and also went with the team to the final tournament, where the “Three Lions” were waiting for a shameful performance and departure at the group stage.

    Jack Wilshire spent half of his professional career in a hospital bed and probably learned by heart what English hospitals are, how boring it is to live in them, and what flowers - asters or begonias - decorate dull hospital wards. A couple of years ago, Jack was undoubtedly considered one of the main hopes of Arsene Wenger's ever-building and ever-breaking backbone team, but the years go by, Wilshire is being treated, and Arsenal is buying new players to replace him. You won't have time to look back - and the Egyptian Mohammed El Nenni scores Barcelona at the Camp Nou, you turn away to smoke a cigarette (which is especially typical for Wilshire) - and Granite Jaka is already cutting gears, like Xabi Alonso. And you, only yesterday so necessary and necessary, could go where all the roads lead - to Rome. I could, but he delayed - and left for practice in Bournemouth.

    Football is a competitive, difficult, and often not very fair thing. So unfair that even the patience of the endless patient Arsene Wenger sometimes comes to an end. There are other times when you just don't fit the new head coach and, despite your status as a living legend of the club, you go home. This is the case of Joe Hart, another great English talent, as great as Wilshire. In the situation with Hart, it is not the choice of Guardiola that is surprising - he has established himself as an outstanding coach and has the right, without looking back at anyone, to make such castling; the choice of Joe himself is surprising, who did not go to another Premier League club, but left for Serie A, which is going through hard times. Tell which of us a couple of years ago that in the summer of 2016 Joe Hart would be in Turin, and we would think that it was Juventus who finally got busy looking for a replacement for Buffon and bought the best English goalkeeper from the opposing Man City for a lot of money. In fact, it was not Juventus that fell to Hart, but in all respects the humble Torino, and we must admit that this transfer is one of the biggest surprises of the transfer window that is slamming before our eyes.

    Joe Hart's transition to Torino is the same surrealism as disappearing motor homes in some Lynch films: everything is very simple, unexpected and at the same time frightening. Frightening, first of all, for the fans of the English team, who could not help scratching the back of their heads: if their best goalkeeper did not find another place to live besides Torino, then what fate awaits the smaller fish - Heaton, Forster, Butland?

    In a strange way, Liverpool refused to claim Joe Hart, which has had problems with the goalkeeper's position for a long time. Rookie Loris Karius broke his arm during preseason, and Simon Mignolet misses everything that flies more than two centimeters from his fingers - many in Klopp's place would be thoughtful and tried to rent Hart. Moreover, given the names that Klopp's main competitors have this season: De Gea, Bravo, Courtois, Cech, Lloris ... defender, although absolutely everyone trumpets about the incapacity of Alberto Moreno, and first of all Alberto Moreno himself. Klopp is stubborn, Mignolet continues to admit absurdities, and Hart, under cover of night, escapes to northern Italy - this is one of the touches of the surreal canvas of the English off-season.

    However, among these strange events one can (and should) find a drop of logic: on the last day of the transfer window Arsenal are ready to buy the long-suffering crystal Daniel Sturridge for Liverpool. Yes, at first glance, such a transition may seem like madness, a gamble, but Arsene Wenger needs a strong striker for at least 10-15 matches a season - and you can't find Sturridge better among the available options on the market now. The Gunners have Giroud, Welbeck will recover someday, they now have Lucas Perez - in their company they lack only a joker who will score 5-6 decisive goals. This joker should be exactly Sturridge, although, of course, the reverse jokes have already gone: if you combine Daniel's injury with the injury of Arsenal players in general, then switching to Emirates", Sturridge should not just fly out for a long time with another damage, but fall into a coma.

    While Jack Wilshire, smiling sadly, takes his things from the hospital, while the rain pours down the stunted begonias of the logic of what is happening, another transfer is brewing in England, ready to finally finish off this very logic. David Louis returns to Chelsea. It seems that against this background, the crazy money paid by Man United for Pogba, and the 50 millionth price tag of John Stones, and everything else fade away. Arsenal fans"They will not sleep today, they are waiting for the transfer, which someone dubbed the apt word madness long before the deadline. We hasten to disappoint them, because they can sleep peacefully. Madness has already taken place.

    For more than a quarter of a century, the England national team has been experiencing big problems with goalkeepers. When Joe Hart showed up there, it seemed like they could be forgotten. But, alas, Hart did not last long.

    Joe Hart's biography and career

    Joe Hart was born in the city of Shrewsbury - the capital of the county of the same name in a simple English family. There he also started playing football and soon got into the football school of the local club.

    Shrewsbury Town

    2003-2006

    At the age of 16, Hart was included in the application for the Shrewsbury Town season, but for two years the young goalkeeper sat on the bench and only in 2005 became the main goalkeeper of the team. However, why “only”, because Hart was only 18 at that time.

    Having defended all 46 matches in the second football league (fourth division), Joe Hart attracted the Manchester City scouts. True, he did not accomplish anything outstanding that season - he conceded 55 goals, and his team took only 10th place.

    But Hart, who was tall, played great on the outs, felt confident on the goal line, and more was not required of him - in the end, he was not taken for the role of the first number.


    "Manchester city"

    2006-2018

    However, the newcomer managed to make his debut quite quickly - on October 14, 2006 due to injuries of the main goalkeepers, Joe Hart took a place at the gate of Manchester City and defended zero in the match with Sheffield United.

    First leases

    • Tranmere Rovers - 2007.
    • Blackpool - 2007.

    But it turned out to be his only match of the season. In January, Joe Hart was sent on loan to the First Football League club Tranmere Rovers and then to the Championship at Blackpool.

    Before the start of the 2008-2009 season, Manchester City brought back Joe Hart to become the team's main goalkeeper. However, in February 2009, City acquired the Irish goalkeeper Shay Given, who put Hart on the bench before being loaned again.

    • Birmingham City 2009-2010.

    This deal marked a turning point in the goalkeeper's career. In Birmingham, Hart had a great season, following which he got into the symbolic Premier League team and was called up to the England national team.

    Upon his return to Manchester City, Hart ousted Shay Given and became the permanent number one of the townspeople for several seasons. By that time, Sheikh Mansour became the owner of the club, Manchester City carried out massive purchases of players without touching only one position - the goalkeeper.

    Then it seemed that not only the club, but also the England national team had finally acquired a reliable goalkeeper, who had not been there since the end of his career.

    In 2012, Hart helped Manchester City win their first league title since 1968 and repeat that success two years later. And in winning the first of these titles, the role of the goalkeeper is greater than it is commonly thought.

    After all, then, in the 2011-2012 season, Manchester City beat their compatriots from United only on the difference between goals scored and conceded largely due to the fact that the “townspeople” conceded the least in the league - only 29 goals.

    However, then Hart became significantly more likely to make mistakes, both in the games for the club and for the England national team, and when in the summer of 2016 City was headed by Josep Guardiola, it became clear that the days of Hart's stay in Manchester were numbered.

    Pep immediately announced that he needed a goalkeeper who could play with his feet, which Hart could never grab. The new coach backed up his conversations with deeds, insisting on the acquisition of the Chilean goalkeeper Claudio Bravo.

    Rent again

    • Torino - 2016-2017.
    • West Ham - 2017-2018.

    So Joe Hart began his rental wanderings again, while remaining the main goalkeeper of the England national team. But neither Torino nor West Ham was impressed by Hart, at least these clubs did not take advantage of the opportunity to buy his contract.


    Burnley

    2018 - present

    Joe Hart finally left Manchester City ahead of the 2018/19 season and entered into a two-year deal with Burnley. While he is the main goalkeeper of the distinctive team of Sean Ditch.

    England squad

    2008-2017

    Joe Hart played his first match for the England national team in June 2008, but he was constantly called up to the squad only since 2010. He went to the World Cup in South Africa as the third goalkeeper.

    But it was after that tournament that Hart took a place at the gate of the England national team. Remember that mistake by Robert Green, which cost the British points in the opening match against the US team? Then the British coach did not dare to trust the young Hart and sent 39-year-old David James into the gates.

    But Roy Hodgson, who replaced Capello, clearly bet on Hart, who was the main goalkeeper of the British at the 2012 and 2016 European Championships and the 2014 World Cup. I must say that neither Hart himself nor the England national team shone at these tournaments.

    By and large, in England matches, Hart did not show anything outstanding. He just didn't make blunders and took what a goalkeeper of his level should take. For the British, who have suffered a lot from their goalkeepers (remember the mistake of David Seaman in the quarterfinals of the 2002 World Cup or Scott Carson, who gave us a ticket to Euro 2008), it was a joy.

    However, over time, the number of Hart's mistakes began to exceed the acceptable norm, and he remained at the goal of the national team only because the other goalkeepers were even worse. But as soon as young Jordan Pickford spent a couple of seasons in the Premier League at an acceptable level, he was immediately entrusted with the No. 1 post in the national team, and Joe Hart, who was the main goalkeeper in the selection for the 2018 World Cup, did not go to Russia.

    • As a child, Joe Hart, in addition to football, was involved in cricket.
    • Hart became the first English goalkeeper in Serie A.
    • At the 2016 European Championships, Hart was named the worst goalkeeper of the tournament, and he turned out to be the only representative of England in the symbolic anti-team.

    Joe Hart is still young by goalkeeper standards - he will only turn 32 this spring. It is unlikely that he will return to the level that he demonstrated in his best years, but he is quite capable of playing several seasons in the Premier League.

    Joe Hart was born in the small town of Shrewsbury, which is located 240 kilometers from London. His father was a goalkeeper selling sports equipment, and his mother was a school teacher. Hart himself showed leadership qualities from childhood and was the headman in his class. At the same time, in the early years, he played cricket along with football, and his partner was Stephen Davis, who continued his career in this sport and made his way to the England national team.

    Hart still preferred football and at the age of 15 for the first time in the main team, “Shrewsbury” went to an away match against “Exeter”. The goalkeeper made his debut on the field at the age of 17 and 1 day - in a duel against Gravesend and Northfleet. Four days later, Hart conceded three goals from Morecambe and was on the bench for a year. In the 2004/05 season, the goalkeeper spent the last six matches of the season, and in the next championship he became the main goalkeeper of Shrewsbury. Hart proved himself to be the best goalkeeper in League 2, got into the national team at the end of the year and attracted the attention of Premier League clubs. The fight for the talented goalkeeper was won by Manchester City, who paid 900 thousand pounds.

    In the first season in the camp of the “townspeople”, Hart managed to make his debut in the Premier League - playing zero in a duel against Sheffield, and also went to several leases (the rules in English football allow this) - in Tranmere Rovers and Blackpool ... In the 2007/08 season, Hart had 26 Premier League appearances. The next year he also started at the base, but in the second part he lost the fight to Neck Given. In the 2009/10 season, Hart again spent on loan at Birmingham, where he issued ten rusks, including against Chelsea, which earned him a return to Manchester City. From 2010 to 2016, the goalkeeper was the first number of the “citizens” and helped the club win two championships and a few more trophies, but that all changed with the arrival of Josep Guardiola. The Catalan needed a goalkeeper of a different format, and Hart began wandering around on leases - first at Torino and then at West Ham.

    Hart's career in England has also been challenging. He made his debut in the first team back in June 2008, having played for zero half in a duel against Trinidad and Tobago, and next time he appeared in the main team only two years before the World Cup. Hart played well and won a place in the British squad for the 2010 World Cup, where he sat on the bench for the entire tournament. Immediately after that tournament, the goalkeeper managed to become the first number in the national team. Hart played 4 matches at Euro 2012, but played twice at the 2014 World Cup. At the 2016 European Championship, the goalkeeper was again the main one and again played 4 meetings.

    In the selection for the 2018 World Cup, Hart missed only one meeting - the last one against Lithuania, which no longer meant anything. Moreover, in the first matches against the Baltic team, it was the goalkeeper who brought the British out as captain.

    Highest achievement at the World Championship: 1/8 – 2010.

    Joe Hart is an English professional footballer, goalkeeper for West Ham (on loan from Manchester City) and the England national team.

    Rent in Italian "Torino"

    In August 2016, when Josep Guardiola came to the post of head coach, Joe Hart lost his place at the base, because he did not fit the tactical views of the coach. The Spanish coach said that Hart's game was a failure at the 2016 UEFA European Championship, so this goalkeeper is not in his interests. At the same time, many leading European clubs began to take an interest in the vacated candidacy of Hart (Arsenal, Liverpool, Everton, Borussia 09 e.V. Dortmund, Milan, Torino, Sevilla and many others).

    It soon became known that the four-time winner of the Premier League Golden Glove will spend the season on loan from the Italian Torino.
