@@bobsmith3291 I'm sure he had offers, but I'm guessing he wanted it to be close to home, chance of playing, and at a good combination of level and wages. He's had a decent career, has enough money, and training must be painful at his age which he has to do even if he's not #1. Again, I'm sure he would have had offers, but nothing suitable that he was up for (could be arsed with), which is fair enough. Don't think MLS would've been a go'er, especially with the channel taking off and everything. I'd say he was still good enough to be a #2 at a bottom half PL team or maybe a #1 in the Championship for a season.
Love these podcasts. I wonder would you ever do a Q and A. Regarding transfers I've always wondered have someone ever refused to take part in initiation songs.
Love the podcast boys! 18.36 Tubes asks a good question " has a player told a manager, you have got to sign him ". Ironically it was Everton to Norwich, Russel Martin told Alex Neil to sign Steven Naismith, We ( Norwich ) signed him for a club record of 9 million pounds. Then poor old Naismith who thought he was being brought in to help the club and use his experience, was hardly ever played! This information was given by Naismith himself in an interview after being asked what went wrong at Norwich
Hey Ben, love the podcast! An idea for an episode or a small series of episodes could be legends of the game. For instance one episode you could talk about 5 or 6 legends of football and their career and then the next one another 5 or 6
:))) One minute they say it would be posh to get your kit to a tailor, then we find out that Ben is the posh one. : ))) UpThe FozzCast. Salutari from Romania.
Ben and guys can you talk about should james tavernier get an England call up, look at the stats, especially Europe, I think he deserves one no matter how bad you think Scottish football is, we got to a euro final spending buttons compared to youz lot and gave West Ham a doing
Hevent seen a lot of Tavernier but his stats are pretty awesome. His main issue is that if there’s one position England are really strong right now it’s right back/RWB. Walker Trippier TAA, James are all established KWP, Spence, Lamptey (unless he does to Ghana) Livramento all waiting in the wings AWB will come back into it now he has a decent coach. I think he is just playing at the worst possible time.
Top class pod as always. You guys should have a few part pod on tubes and ange golf challenge. Be good to know more about Tom.. wheres daws? Up the fozcast
Spurs 2nd choice Central striker is richarlson. Son kulu moura are attacking wide men. Easily fits in. Bring him on 60mins when losing. 60 mins when comfortably winning. League Cup fa cup. Fantastic 2md choice main striker
I always wondered if players get a club email address like normal people do when they join a company. Just laughing at the thought of Fozzy getting annoyed at players replying all etc
Richarlison loved Everton however he wanted to play champions league, he was meant to leave 1-2years ago but gave us a chance. But how we’ve been ran as a club has meant the money was needed otherwise we would have likely got a points deduction with ffp
The fact he’s not been able to do a medical after his head bang wouldn’t help. Plus he’s had some time off for a holiday. People forget he’s nearly 40 and probably just seeing what happens.
The big draw in going to Spurs and not Everton, is playing Champions League football, challenging for the league/ top 4, playing under Conte - dont think money and living in London were the main reasons you would pick Spurs over Everton
You should have a look at Victor Boniface, he played at Bodø/glimt (i work security there every match) he just got a move to Union Saint-gilloise , he is a guy with insane work ethic of the pitch but gives me lukaku type vibes on his playing style and as long as he can stay injury free, he will be a beast, lovely bloke as well btw,
They don’t strap their own ankles etc because it’s too complicated and precise, one of the many reasons why clubs will hire top class physios and back room staff. Great watch, hurry up and find a prem club so I can get you in my fantasy league🤣
Everything tubes said about lukaku was a bunch of salty nonsense. It is well known tuchel really wanted lukaku. Do you think Chelsea sanction a 90m+ transfer if the coach doesn’t like the player? He was one of the best strikers in the world serie a or not and was a great fit for Chelsea. A bunch of factors, including bad management from tuchel, caused it to fail
The laces being undone in training is so that in a game they have the advantage of being fully locked into their boots compared to in training. It’s a competitive edge in their head. (From previous interviews I’ve read from players). It’s like players who train in moulds but then play in studs because they have more grip.
There are three teams in the league who spend £50-£60m on players just to make their squad better. Chelsea, City and Liverpool. Spurs have designs on joining that club. They need to start buying big players for big money so Kane, Son and Kulu don’t have to play every game. Conte wants a first 18. We spent £42m on Davinson and then £47m on Romero in the same position. Great pod though guys, fantastic insight from Ben.
Pep is isn't making singings, nobody gonna convince me he wanted Grealish. Grealish'es biggest strength is bringing the ball up the pitch on his own, MC have literarily no use for it, 1) team against them drop off anyway, 2) even if they didn't, MC want the ball to pop, not for one guy to hold on to it and slow the game down. Second best thing Grealish can do is overhold the ball, bait in the help and slip the ball through to open space, Villa had great triangle system set up in the corners and they manage to get high quality open crosses out of it. Again MC doesn't need that, they need the ball to pop, and just use the spaces that open up as a result of much more complex movements. To be fair Mahriz also wasn't direct fit, but Pep used him perfectly as an option when they needed something different. Also Mahriz'es strengths are much more directly related to scoring, so it easy for him to be useful in any team. Mahriz can actually score the ball over a defender or produce high quality cross by himself and Pep taught him not to slow the game down and pick his moments. Grealish just lacks the real effectivity in the f3rd, even though Aston Villa played everything trough him, he can't score consistently.
Of course Lukaku had a good game against arsenal they are Santa Claus FC any player or team underperforming always get given a good game against them 🤣
Be mint if you could vlog as much of the process of your next transfer that you can! Love the content
He won’t get another one

Love it tubes cant wait for the Declan rice golf video gonna be unreal!😍
Love it Tubes! 💚
If you need a sports lawyer for an episode then look no further than Nick De Marco!
Another awesome show guys 🙌🏻
Absolutely fascinating, totally enjoyable
I see Ben's been wearing the Arsenal x Stella McCartney shirt a lot recently, it would be great if you could join us and become a gunner!
Love these podcasts. I wonder would you ever do a Q and A. Regarding transfers I've always wondered have someone ever refused to take part in initiation songs.
Can’t wait for Leno to sign for Fulham so Ben can sign for arsenal as a player coach like Carson is at city
Hes said he has no interest in coaching
Tubes + Fozcast= absolute banger love it 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you 💙
Another banger 🔥 up the fozcast got to love Sundays 💪
Thanks Daniel!
Love the behind the scenes talk just something fans never get to hear

Newcastle will be a force this season, I'm West ham and I think we'll do well to finish above them this time around.

"Everton where playing some fantastic football last season" Sorry, what? 🤣
played some better football than watford tbf
@@jordanhopkins623 says very little.
Watford literally beat them at Goodison
@@shaunplfc1990 santo’s tottenham beat man city does that mean that santo’s tottenham played better football than man city?
You should Get the most recent watford contract for that episode. That would be interesting as it was the most recent compared to that United contract
Ahh man , I’m addicted to this channel 🤣 up the fozcast 🍻
Love this!

One minute they say it would be posh to get your kit to a tailor, then we find out that Ben is the posh one. : )))
UpThe FozzCast. Salutari from Romania.
I highly recommend bringing in Kieran Maguire on to the podcast. Author of the price of football and has his own podcast. Super insightful 👏
whats his podcast called if you don’t mind please? couldn’t find it
Ben and guys can you talk about should james tavernier get an England call up, look at the stats, especially Europe, I think he deserves one no matter how bad you think Scottish football is, we got to a euro final spending buttons compared to youz lot and gave West Ham a doing
He fully deserves one....even if he gets played out of position,he's bin mad good for rangers
Hevent seen a lot of Tavernier but his stats are pretty awesome. His main issue is that if there’s one position England are really strong right now it’s right back/RWB.

Top class pod as always. You guys should have a few part pod on tubes and ange golf challenge. Be good to know more about Tom.. wheres daws? Up the fozcast
I’m a stylist & worked with Villa; Mings wanted a M short & requested they tailor the leg tighter while I was on set. Haha!
Doing exercise with undone shoes increases resistance and is sometimes used by long distance runners to strengthen the bones in the foot
Would be great if you got an Agent on the podcast and talk about the ins and outs of being an agent, i.e. transfers, becoming a players agent.
Hey Ben, have you ever considered doing a live show? Say the Royal Spa Centre, do a fan Q and A?
Spurs 2nd choice Central striker is richarlson. Son kulu moura are attacking wide men. Easily fits in. Bring him on 60mins when losing. 60 mins when comfortably winning. League Cup fa cup. Fantastic 2md choice main striker
Exactly.
Funny this Lukaku scored a hattrick for Belgium against Sweden today.
Werner and Havertz looked amazing against us as we thumped Chelsea 4-0 😂😂😂
What's with the LM design Arsenal shirt Fozzy, are you a secret gooner
Excellent podcast, well done lads!
Thanks! 🙌🏻
Listening to this makes my brain small
🥴😆🏃.
Ben what’s your thoughts on Pogba taking a wage cut to go to juve and the documentary?
Ben where are you playing this season?
Love these ben. Ben the best TH-camr around
I always wondered if players get a club email address like normal people do when they join a company. Just laughing at the thought of Fozzy getting annoyed at players replying all etc
Big up the rumour mill ⚪️💙💛
Harry Kane didn't hand in a transfer request. In a sense, he did, but not an actual official request.
Waiting for the contact video 💪💪💪
Ben hinting at an arsenal move with the shirt on 👀
8k relocation is a tax free amount from HMRC so saves the club and player tax and NIC
I absolutely love the fozcast Ben you're a legend
Thanks!
It wasent just me who as a kid thought u and Frazer Forster where related 😂😂
Great vid again Ben
Come on Fozzy, where you signing this season??
Loving these podcasts fozzy!
Thanks Rudy! 💪🏻
Very enjoyable!
Thanks Evan! Back in the comments again! 🙌🏻
@@FozcastTheBenFosterPodcast cheers mate 🙌
Relocation fee is a thing in lower leagues too!
Al from brisbane , great show please sign for Bournemouth
awesome
Any news on a new club for you. Would love to see you play in France.
Ben in a arsenal shirt is there something u wanna tell us ben
Strange he says a scan takes 1 hour....when I went to have my ribs X-Ray'd it took a couple minutes only
Love these podcasts 👌
Legend!

For
One year lol
When you signing for someone? Feel like what makes you different is being a current footballer so really hope you sign for someone
The fact he’s not been able to do a medical after his head bang wouldn’t help.
Plus he’s had some time off for a holiday.
People forget he’s nearly 40 and probably just seeing what happens.
Stay fit and try to get a signing
The big draw in going to Spurs and not Everton, is playing Champions League football, challenging for the league/ top 4, playing under Conte - dont think money and living in London were the main reasons you would pick Spurs over Everton
When are you announcing your transfer to the mighty Whites eh Fozzy?? MOT
Fozzy dying out for a move to Arsenal
You should have a look at Victor Boniface, he played at Bodø/glimt (i work security there every match) he just got a move to Union Saint-gilloise , he is a guy with insane work ethic of the pitch but gives me lukaku type vibes on his playing style and as long as he can stay injury free, he will be a beast, lovely bloke as well btw,
If he’s gone there I’m sure he’ll be very good, Royal Union SG have very good scouting… be interesting to see how he goes

Why you got an Arsenal shirt on?
How do you rate Ravel Morrison?

How can you not mention a free transfer in Christian Eriksen from Brentford to United. Best free signing of the season by a country mile.
Ben to Leeds ??
So Ben whats happening with your football future ?
Andy carroll to Liverpool,,,, what a disaster
I can’t keep my eyes off the microphones. Nothing micro about those
Has Ben signed for Arsenal? Or is the t-shirt just a desperate come get me ?
👍
can't believe you have cropped my dad nick out of the thumbnail - i recognise that photo anywhere!
Your dads a legend tbf mate, hes also minted! Lend us a tenner 😉
Love the Fozcast but to say Liverpool will finish 3rd is not only delusional it is down right disrespectful to Klopp and Liverpool
??
Richarlison = Simples.... Financial fair play Everton needed to balance the books.
Lukaku was only good in that game vs Arsenal because he was up against Pablo Mari
Arsenal had Cedric, Holding and Mari in that back 4!
When you joining arsenal bro
wheres the fantasy league

I wish you had more informed guests on the show!
You can take that either way?
BEN COME BACK HOME TO THE BAGGIES
Why is he draging it out to tell us who he signed for
Foza has been blurred by his Watford days,there transfer merry-go-round is laughable and the managers is next level..🤪50%. 🤣👏👌💥🍻
Is Ben a gooner?
I think he just likes their kit
The opposite.
tom is weird af about him asking about the short shorts of players some weirdo..and asking about wedgies this guy has some problems
1st
Paul Pogba has been average at best for more than 3 seasons. He might shine in a pub league like Serie A, but he´s NOT a PL player, simply overrated!
