Ben Foster's arrival at Old Trafford was a whirlwind affair. The gifted
goalkeeper was on loan at Wrexham when he caught the eye of Sir Alex
Ferguson in the Football League Trophy final.
In Cardiff to watch his son Darren in action, the Gaffer noted Foster's
fine performance, who kept a clean sheet as Wrexham won 2-0 after extra
time.
Foster was scouted in the following three months, before being prised away
from Stoke City - without ever playing for the Potters' first team - for an
undisclosed fee in July 2005. He's never been one to stay in a place too
long, with five loan spells in three years at the Britannia Stadium, and
that precedent continued after his move to Old Trafford.
After just one and a half pre-season friendlies for United's Reserves, Ben
was farmed out to Watford on a season-long loan. Although tipped by many
for relegation, the Hornets had a stunning campaign - thanks in no small
part to Foster's performances.
Aidy Boothroyd's side returned to the Premiership after beating Leeds in
the final of the Championship Play-offs. For the second year in a row
Foster kept a clean sheet at the Millennium Stadium as Watford won 3-0.
Just when it seemed his perfect season couldn't get any better, Foster
was a shock call-up to the standby list for England's 2006 World Cup squad.
Although his presence wasn't required in Germany, his consideration for
international football demonstrates what a fine prospect United have signed.
球員簡介
福斯特加盟曼聯就像一陣旋風，這位極具天賦的門將在被租借到雷瑟漢姆參加足聯杯決
賽時引起弗格森的注意。在卡迪夫觀看自己兒子比賽時，弗格森看到福斯特的精彩演出
，憑借福斯特的精彩撲救，雷瑟漢姆在加時賽2比0獲勝。
之後3個月，福斯特都受到曼聯球探的密切注意，最終在2005年7月，曼聯以未公佈的轉
會費簽下福斯特。他從來沒有在一間俱樂部停留太長的時間，在史托克城效力的3年中
，他曾5次被租借，而在加盟老特拉福德後，他再次被租借。
在代表預備隊參加1場半的季前友誼賽後，福斯特被租借到沃特福德一個賽季。儘管受
到許多質疑，但是憑借福斯特的精彩演出，沃特福德度過了一個精彩的賽季。
沃特福德在升級附加賽擊敗列茲聯重返英超，在這場3比0大勝的比賽中，福斯特保持城
門不失。
福斯特令人意外地入選英格蘭2006年世界盃的大名單。儘管最終沒有機會前往，但是在
他被租借到沃特福德的第二個賽季，他憑借精彩的演出贏得代表國家隊上陣的機會。在
2007年2月，英格蘭在老特拉福德主場對陣西班牙的友誼賽中，福斯特獲得首發上陣的
機會。
麥克拉倫的球隊0比1落敗，但是福斯特依然有上佳的演出。儘管他未能幫助沃特福德成
功保級，但是他已成為曼聯和英格蘭最有前途的希望之星之一。
福斯特的獨白
「我當初擔心在沃特福德度過一個成功的賽季會對我的前途帶來什麼影響，但能夠應得
附加賽的一名獎牌，那種感覺也是很棒的。」
「在2005/06賽季開始前，從斯托克轉會到曼聯，然後又迅速被租借到沃特福德，我難以
在短時間內接受這麼多的變遷，這也影響了我在沃特福德頭10場比賽的表現，但我慢
慢冷靜下來，然後開始有了一些不錯的表現。」
「我的未來都交由弗格森來決定，我對他有絕對的信任，不管他做出什麼決定，都會是
對俱樂部最有利的，也會是對我的成長最有利的。」
「上賽季的經歷令人感覺奇妙，沃特福德升上英超，我也被徵召入國家隊，迎來人生最
重要的一場比賽，一切都令人難以置信，我很享受。」
其他人如此評價福斯特
「福斯特有很大的潛能，體型很標準，各方面能力都很出色，右手的反應很快，左腳的
技術也不錯。」
