    Won't be using that to describe Duxbury and co I suspect after the comments made when he left!

    Be able to give his side of the story and explain why he ignored club orders...

    (Then wasn't punished further for doing that)

    Obviously didn’t say much Watford wise otherwise it would have been reported .

    and yet he still genuinely believes that his vlogs "would be a benefit for all clubs" which he said in one of his videos. Wonder if the lack of progress this summer might change his mind on that. Guess we'll be seeing him play for Hashtag Utd sooner rather than later.

    Was looking for him on the Arsenal bench during their game against Palace last Friday but couldn't spot him. Anyone know what's happened there?

    In one of his videos Foster laid out some very non-subtle hints that he'd make a great backup keeper for a side like Arsenal where he'd big up the #1 keeper.

    Surely the one thing you're looking for in a #2/#3 keeper is professionalism? Something you can pass onto the young lads?

    If you're wondering why no club has snapped up Ben Foster yet, it's because a YouTuber took 10 shots from outside the penalty area against Foster wearing these (below) and scored 3 goals. What an atrocious goalkeeper.

    Finally rubber stamped the retirement that we’ve been witnessing for the last 2 years.

    Sick of seeing everyone kiss his arse and talk about what a "LeGeNd" he is.

    The bloke is a complete **** head and was a completely unprofessional tosser here last season. Comes across like a bit of a weirdo as well.

    Unfortunately him retiring from football won't mean I don't have to see or hear from him any more.

    Wouldn’t want to be friends with him, at 37 he seems a bit of a weirdo.

    I’m trying not to be completely sour as I don’t think there’s anything wrong with kids / young adults having fun, filming content, going viral and making money. It’s great.

    Yet, something about Ben Foster’s approach to it all is just a bit weird & cringe. He loves it a bit too much.

    Still, a fantastic keeper in his original loan spell here and for two seasons in his recent spell was also great. Thanks for that part Ben and hopefully don’t see much more of you on the internet tbh.

    I cannot imagine Mrs Foster thinks much of her husband on the net watching YouTube videos or Netflix most days.

    Mind you if it beings the money in...

    Ben Foster moves down the ranks of decency and up the ranks of moronic once more. Grinning fool.

    Anyone seen/heard his latest blatherings?

    Moaning about his exit with his co-simpletons. I genuinely think he has zero self awareness

    I heard in the past he hadn’t been very complementary about the club on the videos.

    Expected a new contract ?

    No he expected to retire, but got frozen out of the last game apparently because they said he'd be a bad influence.

    Then apparently took up an offer from a mate to sit in the Chelsea end while we got pummeled.

    Couldn't grasp why the Watford fans weren't happy about that. Clueless

    He’s obviously very very dense. A shame as he was a great keeper in his prime.
