‘Why isn’t Joe Hart England’s No.1?’ – Man Utd legend Schmeichel picks holes in goalkeeping crop

England have not had an established No.1 since David Seaman, according to Peter Schmeichel, with the legendary Dane left wondering why Joe Hart has tumbled into the abyss as current hopefuls struggle to stake serious claims for a long-term role.

Jordan Pickford is the first choice for Gareth Southgate at present, however, he has seen questions asked of his reliability at Everton and has a number of rivals breathing down his neck.

Nick Pope is taking in a testing start to 2020-21 with Burnley, though, while Dean Henderson is filling back-up duties behind David de Gea after returning to Manchester United.
