Man City custodian Hart hopeful of winning Premier League title

London, May 2(ANI): Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart has claimed his team deserves to be at the top of the league table, and is positive about their chances to become the English champions for the first time since 1968.

An away win against Newcastle United on Sunday, followed by a home win over Queens Park Rangers on the final day of the season will be enough for City to claim the Premier League championship, unless United record incredibly high wins over Swansea City and Sunderland.

But Hart is determined not to look too far ahead, though he acknowledges that the momentum is with City.

"We deserve to be in the position we are in - we are a good team, with good players and good fans and we are going places," The Telegraph quoted Hart, as saying.

"Hopefully we can do it this year. You have to ride on that wave and enjoy it. There is no point in being robots. You have to feel that vibe and we felt the fans," he added.

The England international, whilst not quite going that far, is keen to point out that a meeting with Newcastle, at the Sports Direct Arena, is not something to be taken lightly.

"We were pleased to win but we have moved on. It's all about Newcastle now, which is pretty similar to what happened earlier in the season when we won at United - it was a great feeling but then we had the next game," Hart said.

"It's all very well winning one game. But you can't just win one game if you want to do well. You need to win every one. Now we go to Newcastle to face a very tough side in a tough stadium, hoping we can get a good result," he added. (ANI)
