England goalkeeper Joe Hart has not yet been told whether he will be in Fabio Capello's 23-man squad for the World Cup finals.[LNB] Sunday's edgy 2-1 victory over Japan was the last opportunity for Capello's initial 30-man squad to prove their credentials before a cull on Tuesday.[LNB]England's manager still has a couple of days to make his decision, but he revealed after defeating Japan that he has already made his mind up regarding the players he will take to South Africa.[LNB]Debate has been raging with regards to who will be the unfortunate seven to be axed, but Hart - who played the second half on Sunday - does not think that players have already been told the bad news by Capello.[LNB]Asked by Sky Sports News if players knew their fate, Hart said: "Not that I am aware of. It is a tough decision and is something he (Capello) is not going to take lightly.[LNB]"But that is why he is the manager and there are decisions to be made."[LNB]Capello's first-choice goalkeeper is still a subject for speculation as Hart, Rob Green and David James compete for the starting position.[LNB]But Hart insists there will be no ill-feeling among the two shot-stoppers who begin the World Cup as substitutes or squad members.[LNB]"All of us are vying for the same spot," said the Manchester City goalkeeper, who spent the season on loan at Birmingham. "At the same time, we have a lot of respect for each other. [LNB]"Whoever does get that jersey, I think the other two will be right behind him."
