Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has ruled out a loan move for Ben Foster.

Ferguson insists that will not happen. And, without actually offering an explanation how, the United boss feels Foster can play enough matches to keep his England spot.

"There is absolutely no chance of loaning Ben out, absolutely none," he said.

"The World Cup is four months ahead. Let's hope he gets some football that gives him a chance.

"It is Fabio's decision but Ben's qualities are going to put him forward as a definite choice and England are not endowed with great goalkeepers."
