Watford goalkeeper Gomes willing to step aside for FA Cup final

Watford goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes says he's prepared to step aside for the FA Cup final against Manchester City.

The Brazilian has played in every round prior to the final, but will accept it if manager Javi Gracia chooses Ben Foster ahead of him.

"It would be amazing and I couldn't ask for more," he said.

"I'm already getting more than I deserve. I have said to the club I'm here to help, it doesn't matter who is going to play in the final.

"Ben Foster is amazing and we have created a very good atmosphere between the goalkeepers as well, so that's something that helps."
