Aaron Cresswell was impressive for West Ham United against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane in the Premier League on Sunday.

Aaron Cresswell has been one of the better players for West Ham United so far this season, and he continued to impress this weekend.

The 25-year-old defender took his usual position at left-back against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane in the Premier League on Sunday.

As expected from Cresswell, the former Ipswich Town star gave a very good and effective display against Spurs in the London derby.

Cresswell showed his attacking instinct against Tottenham and sent in a great cross for Cheikhou Kouyate to head home the opening goal of the encounter midway through the first half.

As the Opta Stats table below shows, the former Tranmere Rovers star, who was described by West Ham’s official Twitter account as “outstanding”, gave an all-round performance.
