There has been rumours about Alex Mcleish the Birmingham gaffer would like to bid for our under rated goal keeper, Ben Foster to replace Joe Hart the on loan keeper from Manchester City.
MirrorFootball revealed on April 20 that Brum boss Alex McLeish had an interest in Foster, who has four England caps. Ambitious City, who are ninth in the Premier League, now want to secure 6ft 2in Foster on a permanent transfer. And City officials are believed to have already contacted their United counterparts to make their interest known in the 27-year-old. “We do need a top quality keeper – it’s an important position for us,” said McLeish. “We’ll do our best to make sure the Birmingham fans get a goalkeeper who's going to give us the stature that Hart has this season.” James Nursey, The Daily Mirror.
Foster only make a few appearance in first team during Van Der Sar injuries and compassionate time leave and he proved to be his best during the time. He already saying that he need his plays as he wants to prepare for World Cup if he were selected by Fabio Capello. Thus, the tight competition between himself and Kusczak already give the gaffer headache.
So now the question is, will he be able to match the performance of his current senior golly or to be as glorious as Peter Schemeichel??? Foster really need the leagues games and he noted down his thoughts in middle of the season about leaving his beloved team.
For myself, Foster has his own charisma and can perform better and would love to see him more in the next season and upcoming. You all should know that the gaffer himself brought Foster into the squad when he was under his son's team; Peterborough. So, there must be something that attracted the gaffer and take him without any scouting helps.
What do you think guys?
