"It will sound pathetic but it's the truth, it's not playing and not being wanted," Hart said on show 'Football, Prince William and our mental health' as per Daily Mail.
"Things happened with the new manager at Manchester City, probably the most important manager in the world.
"He didn't even necessarily not like me, he just had a certain aspect which he didn't feel I was up to, and it kind of dropped from there.
"It's certainly the lowest point of my footballing career but it's not a dark cloud," he said.
