Former England goalkeeper David Seaman backs Joe Hart to retain his spot between the sticks for next year's World Cup: 'For me Joe is still the No 1'

David Seaman has urged England manager Gareth Southgate to stick with Joe Hart for next summer's World Cup.

Hart will equal Seaman's 75 England caps if he plays against either Germany or Brazil in November but the West Ham goalkeeper has come under scrutiny in recent months.

Everton's Jordan Pickford, Stoke's Jack Butland and Southampton stopper Fraser Forster are alternative options for England but Southgate has so far opted against a change between the sticks.
