West Brom ace says the nervous energy of Tottenham fans at Wembley hurt the home side as it gave the Baggies belief.
West Bromwich Albion claimed a surprise draw against Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend less than a week after firing their manager.
West Brom took a lead through Salomon Rondon before Harry Kane equalised for Spurs in a 1-1 draw.
Foster said: “Last year at White Hart Lane, we literally could not get the ball out of our own half. As soon as we had the ball they were on us and shutting us down. I don’t know if that is a Wembley thing – there is a bigger pitch but that helps the other teams more.
“You could sense it with the crowd a little bit as well. If they did not get the ball quickly forward, you could feel that they were getting on their backs and little bit and that played into our hands.”
Playing at Wembley is definitely a challenge for Spurs, who had a near perfect record at White Hart Lane last season.
It is just for one season, with the North London side set to move into their new stadium next year.
Tottenham have recorded big wins at Wembley against Liverpool and Real Madrid, but matches in which they are heavy favourites have proved more challenging, with Saturday’s draw with West Brom a case in point.
Spurs have slipped below Arsenal into fifth place, while West Brom sit in 17th.
