Pellegrini coy over whether Man City keeper Hart will return

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini has declined to say whether keeper Joe Hart will return to the starting team for Sunday's Premier League match with Tottenham. The 26-year-old was dropped by his club after a spell of inconsistent form earlier this month but impressed in England's friendly loss to Germany on Tuesday.

When asked about Hart's chances of replacing Costel Pantilimon, Pellegrini said: "I don't know. We will see tomorrow the starting 11.

"It was very important for him to play with England. It was an important game for England against Germany, it is a good test. I think he did very well."
