Noble has once again been a key figure for the Hammers this season and Pellegrini hopes he will finish his career in claret and blue.“I think it is very positive for him and for the club,” said Pellegrini.“Mark is a player that has played his complete career here so I think he deserves to finish his career here as well. I am very happy for him. “He knows this club, every time he talks in the dressing room it is important for new players who arrive to this club to listen to him, he always has that role as a leader which is very important for our team.“He is a good midfielder, has a good view of the complete pitch and the personality to always ask for the ball.”
