Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola denies problems with dumped goalkeeper Joe Hart.

Guardiola has insisted there was nothing untoward in their discussions.

Speaking at a press conference, Guardiola said: "I have an excellent relationship with Joe. We were clear, him with me and I with him, and we spoke about our football."

Guardiola even insists he has not ruled out the possibility of Hart featuring against Champions League opponents Steaua Bucharest, a game which City will begin with a 5-0 aggregate lead.

"He has a chance to play tomorrow," said Guardiola. "I have said many times, he is a player of us."
