Once upon a time, Ben Foster wasn't getting chances at Manchester United but then the next set of moves altered his entire career where he's gained about a wealth of experience and has etched his contributions on a very applause-worthy scale. In-spite of remaining as one of the consistently serving keepers, he doesn't get enough attention but his statistics stand out.

In 313 Premier League appearances, Ben Foster has kept 78 clean-sheets and even though he became noticeable in a very rigid Tony Pulis's tenure at West Brom, he has carried on his performances under Javi Garcia at Watford.

In 25 appearances so far, he's kept 6 clean-sheets but five more would take him above the tally of last season. He has made 78 saves, has accumulated 22 high-claims which shows his command and has registered 761 passes with a remarkable 243 accurate long-balls which highlight his ball playing ability.

Quite often, Foster's reactions are great too and he doesn't at all shy away from plunging in bravely to save his team. In my eyes, he's one of the noticeably underrated keepers the league has seen.
