West Ham midfielder Jarrod Bowen was happy to catch up with Andrew Robertson after last week's defeat at Liverpool.
The pair are former Hull City teammates.
Bowen told the London Evening Standard: “I spoke to Robbo briefly after the game and he told me, 'Well done on the move, just go and smash it'.
“When he went to Liverpool, a lot of people kind of wrote him off before he had kicked a ball.
“What he has gone on to achieve, though, didn't shock me because I had seen him training every day at Hull, along with Harry Maguire.
“I was up against Robbo every day for two years at Hull and matching yourself against now one of the best left-backs in the world, I believe, has helped me as well."
