West Ham skipper Noble hails Lanzini for Liverpool shock

West Ham United captain Mark Noble hailed Manuel Lanzini's goalscoring performance for victory at Liverpool yesterday.

The Hammers ended a 52-year wait for a league win at Liverpool with a stylish 3-0 success after goals from Lanzini, Noble and Diafra Sakho.

“He was brilliant, 'The Jewel' as they call him. He was fantastic on his first start in the Premier League. I'm probably the only player he's smaller than in the team but he had a massive part in my goal, pestering Lovren and he also scored himself," Noble told whufc.com.

“His all round play – his pressing, his closing down was brilliant and he's probably going to have a nice sleep tonight!"
