The shut-out was Hart’s first in the League in 23 matches.

It was a shocking run going back to January 8 when he was playing for Torino against Sassuolo.

Asked about his poor record, Hart said: “That’s in the league.

“I’ve kept plenty for my country. I am going to keep trying to make as many saves as I can.

“Whether we keep a clean one or not as long as we win I am not really too interested.

“I am going to try and keep that form going.

“Against Huddersfield, I thought the defenders were fantastic and they protected me really well and I didn’t really have that much to do.

“I feel good. I am excited to be here, I am happy, and I just want to keep improving.”

West Ham face West Brom on Saturday and Hart admitted: “It’s not going to be one for the football purists, is it?

“It’s going to be a great game of heart and desire.”

Hammers defender Jose Fonte said: “It was massive to keep a clean sheet.

“As a defender, it’s the worst possible feeling conceding three or four goals.”
