Pablo Zabaleta is loving his time at Manchester City.

The former Espanyol fullback has been linked with a return to Spain or Italy ahead of the January market.

But Zabaleta told City's website: "Every week is exciting in England - the stadiums are always full and even when you play away there is a great atmosphere because of we have so many of our fans there to watch us.

"It's different to what I was used to, but I love it. I can see why players want to play over here."
