Joe Hart: "I didn't take it too much to heart because it wasn't particularly about me and you're going to say nice things about any goalkeeper.
"But he is a huge name in goalkeeping terms.
"We don't get a great deal of access to him, which is a shame, because he has been a legend for years.
"I love the way he plays. He's got a great style about him, is in control of the situation, seems to have good mannerisms and makes the big saves when required.
"He doesn't go looking for action, which is key for a goalkeeper. The last thing you want is your keeper trying to take crosses 30 yards out or slide-tackling people.
"He just does his thing and is very good at it. I'm really looking forward to playing against him."
Former England keeper David James claims today "Hart is the world's best."
