Joe Hart to be dropped in favour of Costel Pantilimon for Norwich match. City boss Manuel Pelligrini has told Hart his run of 123 consecutive Premier League appearances for the club has come to an end after the latest in a series of blunders gifted Chelsea a win last Sunday. Costel Pantilimon will make his first League appearance for City against Norwich at the Etihad Stadium tomorrow after strengthening his claims to stay in the side by keeping a cleansheet in the Capital One Cup win at Newcastle in midweek. Pellegrini has agonised all week over a decision but has taken Hart out of the firing line to work on his game. Earlier in the day Pellegrini had refused to make public his decision. You must ask Joe. I can’t answer for him how disappointed [he was]. Manuel Pellegrini In his pre-match press conference he said: "Tomorrow you will know. It is a decision I have to take every week with the 22 players." When asked how Hart responded to being left out in midweek he added: "You must ask Joe. I can’t answer for him how disappointed [he was]. All of you and the players and me saw what happened but he is a football player and every week he is in the same pressure." And in response to Brad Friedel's remarks that Hart's confidence could be affected if his 123 unbroken League appearance record ended, Pellegrini said: "I am very careful with all the players, not only Joe." Vincent Kompany is still not fit after a thigh injury while Javi Garcia and Stevan Jovetic are also injured. City have won all four of their Premier League home games so far but Pellegrini insists they cannot afford complacency against the struggling Canaries. "Norwich is a difficult team. They lost the last two games but I saw both games against Arsenal, until minute 83-84, it was a very close match, and against Chelsea, they lost the match in the last five minutes. If we think that playing at home we will win easy, it is a great mistake. The team will be very conscious about that. Tomorrow we must do a very good game."
