[Hull Baggie]

He has got back to the kind of form he showed when we had him on loan from Brumand in his first season proper. His kicking is hugely improved for the most part. Time wasting the only negative for me.

Superb on Saturday and really unlucky to concede; both him and McClean got wrong footed by Alli's shot and couldn't adjust their positioning in time.

[BigFrank20]

I wonder if he wastes time on his own initiative or if he is under instructions?
I know what I think, as Stoke's blatant time wasting always used to get on my wick
Thankfully we don't seem to have adopted their feigning injury time wasting tactic yet! 

[Morany]

I think the time wasting is purely down to Pulis. Slowing down the game

[WBArgo]

All of our players waste time, I think it comes from Pulis.

At the same time, most teams do it and at least we don't dive or pretend injury which is worse in my view.

It was an incredible finish from Alli to be fair and nobody seems to have much of it. You put yourself in Alli's position when the ball arrives at your feet and what would you do? I bet hardly anyone would've hit that shot like Alli did.

i seriously think it was a Mis-kick, no-one could analyse that situation and determine which was the only spot to hit and then execute it  in that time frame.

Don't see that myself

I thought it was a very smart finish from him

well if it was, it was absolutely top drawer. Call me cynical...........

I can see why some people might think that it wasn't knocking your opinion fella.

From what I saw of it though it was very much meant

any goal against the mighty baggies is a fluke in my one eyed opinion   

[Jimbo Baggy]

I hope Fosters recalled and in the next England squad deserves it on current form.

[SmethDan]

On current form I think it's best that he be wrapped in cotton wool and kept as far away from international footbal as possible Jimbo.

I've just found a discarded Sun newspaper from Monday. They gave Ben 7/10 for his performance Saturday. I binned it immediately.

Signed a new deal commiting him to the club until 2019

Pulis 'delighted' to extend keeper's Hawthorns stay

BEN Foster has helped spread further Christmas cheer at The Hawthorns by today committing his long-term future to Albion.

The Baggies keeper, who recently made his 150th Premier League appearance for Albion, has signed a new two-and-a-half year deal which will keep him with the club until the summer of 2019.

Foster has been ever-present for the club this season and his glittering performances have assisted Tony Pulis’ men in securing eighth-place in the Premier League for Christmas. 

He joined the club on loan from Birmingham City in 2011 before making the move permanent 12 months later.

The 33-year-old has made 161 appearances for the club in all competitions, keeping 41 clean sheets in the process.

“We’re delighted we’ve extended Ben’s contract,” said Head Coach Tony Pulis. “His form this season has been there for all to see and he continues to set the standards at the club all the goalkeepers have to aspire to.”

Well done & well deserved Ben

[Jimmy]

Quality keeper and quality geezer.

[wolverhampton baggie]

Can't remember a better keeper for us in my time watching The Baggies....well deserved

[TheBrom]

Great news, been back to normal this season. It's nice to not worry about a keeper making mistakes. Made a few really good saves recently too. The Rooney shot he tipped on the bar, and the one against spurs where he was going the wrong way

[alex1]

Great news! Has authority and inspires confidence in the defence.

[frazzle]

Great interview on youtube. Seems like a very straight guy who appreciates being happy more than money etc. Good for him and proud to have him in our team.

[Slimbo]

Great signing - what a keeper he is

[Andio]

Excellent news, a quality keeper and  a great guy as well. 

[mateinone]

What a fantastic "Christmas present", this has made my day

Well done to Foster, he is a top quality keeper, love having him in goal

[botters]

Great news top keeper and man.

[wba13]

My best ever Baggies keeper and iv`e been watching them since the sixties gives confidence to our defence.
