And the 23-year-old’s comments will be music to the Hammers fans’ ears.

Big things are expected from Vlasic in the Premier League. He is a much better player now than he was when he joined Everton as a 19-year-old four years ago.

Vlasic comments will delight the West Ham fans

The Croatian is an incredibly gifted player. He is a very hard worker as well.

The 23-year-old opened up to the club’s official website yesterday and gave the Hammers faithful a taste of what to expect when he puts on the famous Claret and Blue colours:

“You can expect commitment, 100 per cent every day, straight professionalism, and I’m good with the ball, quick and I think I can link up very well with players,” he explained. “I’m also hard working and a player who can play in more than one position. When I spoke with the manager, it was a no-brainer for me and when he told me what he expects from me, that’s all I needed.”

It’s easy to see why David Moyes wanted to bring the Croatian to the London Stadium.

It seems as though we could have a real player on our hands here.
