World Cup is perfect incentive for impressive Hart, says Birmingham boss

Alex McLeish feels Joe Hart could not have any greater incentive to perform well for Birmingham this season than knowing a place at the World Cup might be his reward. After losing his first-team spot at Manchester City to Shay Given last January, Hart has joined Birmingham on a year-long loan in an effort to gain greater experience. A regular in Fabio Capello's squads until he was forced to play secondfiddle at Eastlands, Hart earned a recall for last week's friendly inHolland once Ben Foster had pulled out with a minor knee problem.
