West Ham manager David Moyes has heaped praise upon experienced full-back Pablo Zabaleta, as he approaches the end of his first year at the London Stadium.
The experienced Argentina international signed on a free transfer from Manchester City last summer and has been a mainstay in the Hammers’ squad this season, featuring in 34 of West Ham’s 35 Premier League games this term.
Now 33, Moyes believes Zabaleta is actually getting better with age and heaped praise upon the full-back ahead of his clash against the Citizens, which the Hammers lost 4-1. Speaking to the club’s official website, he said:
“I think Pablo has improved from the first month we got here. He has hardly made a mistake since that period, I think he’s been very, very good Zabaleta.”
“He has been incredibly consistent and after the first month, six weeks, he’s been incredibly consistent and maybe the change of system has helped him a little, made it so he’s not been quite so isolated. But I think he’s played very well.”
“I don’t know if he’s missed a day’s training since I’ve been here.”
