Former West Ham United full-back Alvaro Arbeloa has seemingly taken a swipe at departing Hammers boss Slaven Bilic following his sacking on Monday.

The club ended the Croatian manager's tenure following a troubling start to the new campaign that has seen West Ham win just twice this term.

Following his departure, Bilic refused to criticise any of his players, but former defender Arbeloa has not held back, taking to Twitter to state the phrase "better late than never" alongside a post confirming Bilic's departure from the Olympic Stadium.

Former Everton and Manchester United boss David Moyes is now being touted as a potential replacement for Bilic.
