Ben Foster Reveals What Cristiano Ronaldo Is Really Like... 

Ben Foster is the nicest man ever. He donated a pair of signed gloves purely so we could raffle them for Isla Caton, a young girl currently battling Neuroblastoma - if you'd like to get involved in the fundraiser / raffle - we're posting it to the HH twitter shortly! @JaacksHappyHour

Ben seems like a top bloke. Really likeable and didn’t hold back. Top guest 👍🏼

Can't believe he just casually threw in "I think that was the night Jonny Evans was accused of rape" 😂

Can’t believe u got Ben on the pod.🤩

Media portrays Ronaldo as an arrogant monster because he sets high levels and always wants to win but whenever you speak to ex team mates who know him better than anyone else they never have a bad word to say about him. Heard he doesn’t have tattoos aswell so he can donate blood

His dad died of alcoholism that’s why he doesn’t drink also

Ronaldo's winning mentality is on a different level...he is a perfect example for everyone who wants to achieve something in life !!!

Cycling GK the most down to earth footballer, such a great funny guy. One of my favourite guests.

If Ben made his own podcast it would be mental he defo has a lot of calm stories and could get amazing people on it

Being a West Brom fan and growing up having Ben being our gk my whole life pretty much he is and will forever be my favourite keeper met him twice and probably the nicest footballer I’ve met!

I love the fact he even knew back then how good Ronaldo would be in the future as well as that time

Ben Foster is a Legend! Carling Cup Hero for the Blues and even more importantly a top, top guy.

Scholes was different gravy England mistreated him so much, didn’t realise they had a generational talent in him

Ben defo seems like the type of bloke who would love the sesh if he wasn’t a footballer

_"ronaldo is a machine"-Ben foster_

I think you'd struggle to find someone who's watched his videos, who doesnt like ben. Just the most likeable and positive person. World needs more CyclingGK's

Wow. Ben Foster is so humble, and such an open and likeable guy.

Ben foster is the most down to earth guy feels like he’s 1 of ya mates

The GOAT is on the GOATed Podcast

As a Baggies fan I had the joy of having Ben on my team for the best part of a decade. Fantastic person, fantastic GK and I hope he continues having great success!

As a West Brom fan I met Ben at the hawthorns and he is such a great man. He signed my programme and took a photo with me. Always has time for fans 🤩👍🏻

Met him a few years ago while working when he was at West Brom, never been a fan of any clubs he’s played for, but became a fan of his after a short conversation. Talked about football, who they were playing on the weekend etc. Absolute gentleman, glad that everyone seems to have the same experience as I did when meeting him.

Ben’s the nicest chap in football honestly. Guys so humble and kind yet uses his name and platform so effectively to promote great causes and bring a smile to people’s faces. Amazing for the game, hopefully he stays involved in some capacity after retirement!!

Ben Foster is such a down to earth and warm human being, mad respect and love to him.

Ronaldo to me tells me there is something that some people get born with that makes them better than other people. Someone who grinds so hard to be the best at what he does, who doesn’t get tired or let laziness set in, someone who doesn’t ever procrastinate. That kind of work ethic is something I could never have, it’s got to be something you’re born with.

Ronaldo doesn’t drink because his dad was an alcoholic and he died from it

Came for the Ronaldo story, stayed for the Scholes love-in ❤️

Love it when guests come on here and realise it's the anecdotes and little stories that are some of most the interesting

Why is he so much better than the rest of you? He panics the least under pressure. His drive and passion is class. He sees it as he is just playing football again. Doesn't care about if it's home or away it's just another game. World class mind set and he has proven this year in year out for many of years.

Absolutley love ben what a guy, Im a Birmingham fan and hands down one of the best keepers in my life time and he lifted the carabao cup with us 💙

Love listening to these clips. Ben Foster's a top man, so open and down to earth

Cracking pull to get foster on the pod, cracking bloke and hell of a keeper on his day, smashing it lads never miss a podcast, keep smashing it👍

the fact that sven couldn't fit gerrard scholes and lampard all in a starting 5 midfield still eats me up

Ben seems like such a nice down to earth person. Keep on doing what you're doing ✌️

More of this please. What an incredibly sound guy.

The Scholes story iirc is that Ronaldo was doing all the tricks in training and showing off a bit. Scholes apparently said, "See that tree over there? ", pointing to a tree 30/40m away, "See if you can hit it with the ball from here". So, Ronaldo tries & misses several times. About the 10th attempt he hits it & is pleased with himself. So Scholes gets the ball & pings it straight onto the tree - first time and Ronaldo is speechless.

Love hearing these little insights of footballers, top bloke for a top podcast

Best guest yet. The cycling gk 💪🏻 🚴

Ben comes across as a really down to earth guy. Really enjoying these snippets from his career 👍

After watching and hearing Ben foster talk and relate stories in his own unique manner and character.... It has inspired me to change my own mannerism a bit especially when I now relate stories with company. Kudos mate... U have a good way telling stories relatable down to earth like one of the buddies from the good ol days

I don't think there's a UCL final where Ronaldo played only 20 minutes. Either it's UCL final and he played full or your initial story where he had a cameo in a UCL non final match. Both would be amazing stories especially the former. Imagine a season ending final of UCL and going to gym right after and he won five out of his six as well, and if he did it after a UCL victory then it's mind-blowingly amazing.

Most of people don't have a clue. He is an amazing guy and as footballer.......no words...I..... was lucky to see him playing while I was seating on the bench in an international between Portugal and Sweden 2004 , April/May when he was 19 years old, his 2nd cap for Portugal. Scolari threatened him and Miguel Veloso that if he didn't give 110% in the national team they wouldn't be selected to the finals in 2004( Scolari didn't say the names but...I know that he was aiming at them), CR was starting to explode in United and was maybe a bit over confidente that he had a guaranteed place in the squad.....Scolari was good to put players in the right mind. Man!! CR came in the 2nd half for Figo´s place and I promise I never seen something even close from his talent, Physicality and speed. He was playing on the right wing side just by the Sub´s bench where I was sitting. I swear that I could hear when he was galloping and dribbling pass the Swedish players. Seen by the sub's bench Figo, Zizou, Ronaldo( phenomenon), Rui Costa, Beckham, Zlatan and they were all great but nothing in the same league as CR, he is unique. For me the GOAT no doubt!

Easily the nicest and most down to earth guy in English football, great goalkeeper as well. Top respect to the guy for donating the gloves.

What a legend. Always been a solid keeper aswell.

His Assist to Wazza against AC Milan in 2007. Its imprinted in my brain!! Just Amazing

Wow Ben Foster, it's an amazing share from one who really knows Cristiano. Inspirational, concerned team mate, a fine bloke he is. I think it's pretty special not to entertain a drink a sip or a lick of alcohol or drugs.

Very humble and likeable man A guy who i would love to have a drink with. Many respects ⚒⚒

Thoroughly enjoyed and I'm not even a Man United fan! What a lovely open and honest bloke. We need more of these and this bridges the gap between what football has become against the 'ordinary 'man' on the street'.

Jack wondering why he has an attachment to Scholes, as if it isnt because of his hair

Ben is now my favourite footballer of all time, seems like such a good lad.

I met Maradona's brother, Hugo, and he said the same thing about Maradona. He was out from dawn til dusk practicing. The God given talent is the appetite for practice and the perfectionism that drives them. They envision a level beyond what most people think is possible and then aspire to it and put the work in to get there.

ben foster is exactly what you think of in head when you imagine a GK. also an honest dude

LOVE THIS!! This podcast really hekping me get through this period of my life, thank you❤ I've been inspired to do my same with my own podcast. Love ✨🙌

he doesn't drink cuz his dad had problems with alcohol

So nice to hear from Ben, he was great servant of the Club I love Man UtD.. He is doing great for Watford n I am happy for him.

love being able to see pro footballers from an inside, as a Canadian i dont get to see as much but as a huge english background have known foster since he came around. was never my favourite goalie but support all english players. loved being able to know him more then just a goalkeeper. good video

Just saying Ronaldo played in both champions league finals, 120 mins 2008 90 mins 2009

I knew he wouldn't say something bad about ronaldo, ronaldo is like the pinnacle

I’ve only just found this podcast this morning it’s brilliant keep good work up

Ronaldo doesn’t drink coz his Dad was an alcoholic and died of liver failure

Can we get a"....that kind of thing" count. Idk how many time Ben said it 😂😂

Can someone in the comments explain why Ronaldo doesn't drink? Can't seem to find an answer anywhere 🙄

This podcast is amazing great stuff jack

Ben Foster is just 1 of the lads. Such a likeable fella. Top podcast lads. Thanks for sharing

Ronaldo's legacy will not be judge by him but will by those who knew him.

OMG! TWO OF MY FAVOURITE RU-vid CHANNELS!!!

Didn't know much about Ben other than his playing career. What a great bloke he seems to be, really enjoyed these stories.

What a lovely bloke, found his RU-vid though this and I'm lovin it now

The cycling GK is the goat

As a Watford fan, this podcast made my day

Ben is a living legend! Huge respect

I've listened to every episode of happy hour 3 times or more each episode because they get me through work! And let me tell you now yesterday I was hanging out my arse and this coming out got me through the day!

Very underrated keeper. And human being

One week a minecraft RU-vidr next a professional footballer. Is there anyone they can't get on the pod?

I KNEW you were getting him om when he retweeted you. Awesome. Cannot wait to listen to this on my walk tomorrow (I'm a watford fan which is a bonus!)

New favourite Episode on this amazing podcast

Was not expecting this guest not gonna lie😂😂

Ronaldo had a poo at Luton car service and didn't flush.

I remember the Racing Club Warwick days, great to see Fozzy on the podcast. He’s a top bloke.

I hate when people point out how hard Ronaldo's had to work to get where he is ( as opposed to Messi, who doesn't train at all, or go to the gym)

Ben “kind of thing” Foster

Bring Lord Lingardinho to the podcast it would be sick... He is also in a great form

Love your vids keep up the cracking work

Ben foster was my favourite player for West brom and I met him and was really kind. Go on ben

People hating on CR7 shd simply thank God that he happened to be good at football... Imagine that kind of maniacal drive in a war lord .. serial killer , psychopath.. just imagine the body count...

Wouldn't be a foster vid without a cycling add haha

One of my favourite ever players. What a legend fozzie 💙

My morning started on a good note 😂😂😂😂 the way Ben foster laughing lovely

Ben Foster genuinely seems like a lovely bloke and he's funny as hell. Post-football podcast, like Crouchy?

Fun Fact: Ben Foster played under current Utd boss Ole Gunnar Solskjær for the Man Utd U23s side

Best one yet jack!!!

Loved this podcast. Ben is class

What a guest😁

Yet again Lampard gets overlooked, it seems people forgot everything about him aside form him being goalscorer. Not really surprised at this point tbh...

What a lad , I thought goal keepers had to be weird but Ben is a legend 😂👍🏻

I miss the full podcasts on RU-vid so much. Yes I know they are on Spotify.

Mad how he talks exactly how he looks like he would

Scholes prop? Im here for it. In my mind hes undoubtedly the best midfielder to grace the prem and somehow all these newage kids disrespect him so much just because hes not got 20 goals and assists a season. But actually watch him play and watch his technical ability you'll see why the G.O.A.T manager said Scholes is his best player and most important player

Ben's such a likeable bloke. Great clip.

Yess the cycling gk on the pod
