Style of Play
When people think of a ‘Sam Allardyce team’, defence minded, with tall and aggressive players across the starting XI immediately springs to mind.
However, Cresswell has been the modern day full back West Ham have been searching for. Not only does the Liverpudlian put a shift in at the back, but also is a so called ‘second winger’ when bombarding the opposing full back on the left flank.
Once more, his technique at crossing and having a pop at goal is mesmerizing, almost Cristiano Ronaldo-esq.
His two goals against Newcastle United and Stoke City proved that and is the reason why Cresswell has become the Hammers first choice free kick taker.
