West Ham boss Moyes quickly impressed by Vlasic | OneFootball

David Moyes has been impressed with Nikola Vlasic's early days at West Ham United.

The summer signing from CSKA Moscow made his Hammers debut as a substitute in the 0-0 draw with Southampton last weekend.

"We've been really impressed by Niko. His attitude as a professional is first-class," Moyes said ahead of Thursday's Europa League clash with Dinamo Zagreb.

"We like him. We watched him a lot at CSKA Moscow and in the Euros. We see a young player still developing, but one who already has a lot of experience and caps for Croatia.

"He can play 7, 10 or 11, so can play several roles for us which is important, and will be important through the season, but we also want to give him the chance to adapt and adjust. He's only been really impressive since he's been at the Club and we're really hopeful that he'll turn into a really good player for us."
