Manuel Pellegrini Confident West Ham Striker Sebastien Haller Will Improve in Coming Weeks

West Ham manager Manuel Pellegrini has suggested new signing Sebastien Haller can improve, following a decent start to life with the Hammers for the striker.

Signed from Eintracht Frankfurt during the summer, the Frenchman looked right at home during his first handful of games, scoring twice in the 3-1 win at Watford and also netting in the 2-0 victory over Norwich.

He also featured in the 5-0 drubbing at the hands of Manchester City, but the less said about that from a West Ham perspective the better.

And while the goals have dried up over the last month or so - Haller scoring just once alongside an assist in his last six games - Pellegrini is confident his new signing can up his performance levels to make the Irons more of a threat going forward.
