West Ham United veteran Pablo Zabaleta felt proud after making his 400th appearance in English football.

The fullback, who formerly played with Manchester City, will leave the club at the end of this season.

"We knew we needed to score first," he said. "In the first ten or 15 minutes they were putting pressure on us with long balls and we knew we had to handle this.

"We knew before the game that this would be a difficult place to come, especially against a team which plays so direct, but after we got our goal we kept the ball well and dominated the whole second half. Fornals also got on the scoresheet and he's a new player, so he will get confidence and it's job done.

"I'm proud to reach 400 appearances in England. It's my last season here and I've enjoyed it and I am enjoying it with the lads at a great club.

"I will give my best and in football, at my age, it's difficult and I know I won't play every game like I did in previous years, but I hope we can have a good season here at West Ham."
