Former Man City Premier League winner continues to show title race support for Liverpool's James Milner

Premier League goalkeeper Joe Hart has continued to show his support to Liverpool's penalty scoring hero James Milner.

The pair won two league titles during their time as Manchester City team-mates.

And with Liverpool locked in a close title race with Pep Guardiola's side, the former England No.1 appears to be backing the Reds' midfielder.

Jurgen Klopp's team returned to the Premier League summit thanks to Milner's vital goal which helped secure all three points.

Following Sunday's 2-0 victory over Cardiff City, the 33-year-old shared three images with his followers on Instagram.

One pictured showed his comical 'old man' celebration with the caption reading: "Another big performance".

The Burnley stopper replied to the post saying: "Inman".

Hart's comment, which is said to be an abbreviation for "Get in man", has been appearing on Milner's posts all season.

When the No.7 came off the bench to help guide Liverpool to victory over Southampton earlier this month Hart replied to Milner's reaction post with his usual "Inman" response.

Milner spent five seasons playing alongside Hart at Man City and the English duo clearly remain close.
