| Joe Hart is on the bench for Manchester City today |
JOE HART has an injury problem Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has revealed.
Hart didn't feature during their Capital One Cup defeat against Sunderland on Tuesday, and Willy Caballero will once again replace shot-stopper between the sticks this afternoon (12.45pm).
And Pellegrini says it is an injury problem that has prevented his first-choice keeper starting against Tottenham at White Hart Lane.
"Joe Hart had an injury problem in the week so that's why he couldn't play," said Pellegrini.
"He just worked one day before the game so it is better not to take a risk."
Pellegrini is keen for City to recover from their 2-1 defeat to West Ham last week.
"We have 15 points from 18 which is a good start," he continued.
"We will try to recover from the defeat last week.
"Tottenham is a difficult team but it is important to continue playing the way we have so far."
