Alvaro Arbeloa has taken a swipe at his former manager Slaven Bilic after the Hammers boss was sacked.
The Spaniard tweeted: 'Better late than never' in response to a post announcing Bilic's dismissal with the club in the relegation zone.
Arbeloa spent his last season in football at the club, making only one start and two appearances from the bench in all competitions before retiring in June.
Having worked with the likes of Rafa Benitez, Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti during his decorated career, it could be argued that the 34-year-old is well positioned to comment.
