West Ham fans have taken to Twitter to react after the club revealed that Aaron Cresswell had now made 250 appearances for the Hammers.
Wednesday’s 3-1 win over West Brom saw the 31-year-old reach the landmark, in what is a fine achievement.
Cresswell has been a superb servant to the Irons ever since he joined from Ipswich in 2014, for a fee of just over £2 million.
What a bargain that turned out to be.
In his 250 outings in claret and blue, Cresswell has scored eight goals while also providing 27 assists.
During his time in east London, the Liverpool-born full-back has also won three caps for England.
After a few underwhelming campaigns, Cresswell has rediscovered his best form this term under David Moyes.
The £50,000-a-week man has registered eight Premier League assists in 35 appearances, which is more than some of the division’s finest creators.
Cresswell has more Premier League assists this term than Andy Robertson, Riyad Mahrez, Phil Foden and many more top-class players.
His exquisite technical skills from dead-ball situations have seen West Ham score many a goal from set-pieces this season.
Simply put, he has become a vital member of West Ham’s side under Moyes, and seems to be getting better with age.
Let’s see how the West Ham fans on Twitter reacted to the club’s tweet about Cresswell…
