England goalkeeper Joe Hart admits Birmingham City are more in his thoughts than parent club Manchester City.

Hart, battling David James and Robert Green for England selection, will start next season as a City player - as No 2 to Given.

He said: "To be honest I haven't given Manchester City a thought and that same scenario.

"But going to Birmingham has meant everything to my development. I owe a lot to Alex McLeish for getting me off the bench at City."
