Lukasz Fabianski may have impressed since joining West Ham United, but he has told the club’s official website that he still has improvements to make.

West Ham signed Fabianski from Swansea City in the summer, and he has solved their goalkeeping issues since arriving.

The Polish international has been very solid throughout the season so far, and he helped West Ham keep a clean-sheet against Chelsea yesterday.

Fabianski pulled off a number of good saves in the contest, to keep Chelsea’s attacking talents at bay.

The experienced stopper is quickly becoming a favourite of the West Ham crowd through his performances.

But Fabianski insists that he still has room to improve, and he wants to make his distribution much more accurate.

“I’m happy to get the first clean sheet because I’ve waited for that since the summer,” Fabianski said.

“Saves are one part of the game, but there are still a few things that need to improve, especially when it comes to the kicking and distribution because that’s something that has to be better from my side.”

West Ham have improved in recent weeks, after picking up four points from their last two games.

The Hammers lost their first four games of the season, but have now beaten Everton and drawn with Chelsea to raise optimism.

West Ham are next in action in midweek, when they take on Macclesfield Town in the League Cup.
