Birmingham boss McLeish: Foster incredible lately

Birmingham City boss Alex McLeish admits he's delighted with what Ben Foster has brought to the team this season.

Big Eck admits the former Manchester United keeper is making a good impression in his first season at the club.

"He has made some incredible saves recently. He made a brilliant save against West Ham from Carlton Cole where it then hit one post and stayed out, and Roger Johnson tidied up the clearance. That was a wonderful save.

"But some of the saves he made against Chelsea were out of this world as well. I said one of them was Gordon Banks-like and I can pay him no higher compliment than that."
