Also his agent, Antonio Zaza has faith his son will be a hit at West Ham.

The father and agent of West Ham United striker has admitted to TuttoJuve that his son has not had a good start to his career at the club.
West Ham had a lengthy search for a striker this summer and eventually brought the Italian international in on loan from Juventus – with a buy-out clause included in the deal.
Zaza has not impressed at the club just yet. He has not yet scored in five below-par performances for West Ham.

But his dad Antonio Zaza, who also acts as his agent, believes he just needs time to settle into life at the London Stadium.
Speaking to TuttoJuve he stated:
“He is not doing so well, it seems.”
“For sure, he needs to settle, has totally changed way of playing. I do not know what to say, he’s fine, you have to wait.
“There are no other problems, neither with the team, nor with the company. He’s fine and happy to be there. I repeat, they have another way of playing, it is not easy to settle in.
“First of all try to do well and stay there too, because he is good, there are no problems of any kind.
“The important thing is that he scores once, after which Simone will be unlocked, I am convinced.”

West Ham need Zaza to start delivering the goods soon. The club are struggling to win matches at the moment, with a Dimitri Payet wondergoal saving them against Middlesbrough at the weekend.
His performances in training have been eye-catching, but so far that has not been replicated on the pitch and West Ham fans are wondering if they have got themselves a dud from Juventus.
Hopefully he can put that idea to bed after the international break.
