    If he'd been training regularly then definitely yes from me. However, the following extract from the linked article screams no.......

    "People think I've been training for the last forever how long," he told talkSPORT last month of his brief return to Albion's training base. "I went in for one day and trained with the West Brom youth goalkeepers, because Boaz Myhill is the West Brom academy goalie coach.

    "I went in and trained for a day. It absolutely ruined my body, honestly, because I hadn't played football for two months. I woke up the next day in absolute agony. That night, that I'd trained with West Brom, I fell off my son's scooter, bumped my head on the floor, was concussed for about four days and that was the end of my training with West Brom."

    "Something like West Brom, because it has to logistically work - possibly, but........"

    ... he trained for a day, he was in absolute bits and he'd probably only be here because it's a logistically convenient financial top up. He was superb for us but time and tide wait for no man.

    And all at 39. I think it is best to stick with the good memories of Foster at the club.

    I think you’re right but a really good keeper saves you so many points (pun intended)
    Would be awesome if Fozzie could get fit and play somewhere near his best
    I don’t see Button doing this
