West Ham boss Moyes: I enjoy flashy Paqueta - I must be going soft!

West Ham boss David Moyes says he's happy with the flair of Lucas Paqueta.

For the Carabao Cup win against Arsenal, Moyes' men were 3-0 up, and Paqueta celebrated by attempting a so-called rainbow flick at the end of the game.

The West Ham manager was asked about it yesterday and said: "I have changed. I love it!

"I'm definitely getting soft. I'm Scottish and we're not trained to do such things.

"If you are Brazilian, you are, and we try to enjoy it. There is of course a limit. If it had been 0-0, he might have gotten a different answer from me.

"I won't tell you what I would have done if I were the opponent."
