​Watford keeper Foster: Aubameyang is too quick!

Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster admitted that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is just too quick.

The English goalkeeper committed an early mistake to gift the Gunners a 1-0 lead, which ended up being the game winning goal.

Soon after, Watford skipper Troy Deeney was shown a straight red card, compounding their misery and giving them a mountain to climb all game.

And after the match, Foster admitted it was the pace of Aubameyang that caught him out.

"I've gone to kick it and before I know it he's bloody on me," Foster told Sky Sports.

"To be fair, he's absolutely rapid. I spoke to Bernd Leno at the end of the game and he said 'it's not your fault, he's too quick'.

"I'm gutted for the lads, though."
