West Ham fans react to Aaron Cresswell display vs Manchester City

West Ham opened their 2019/20 Premier League campaign on a disastrous note after the Hammers were beaten 5-0 by the league champions, Manchester City, on Saturday at the London Stadium.

Raheem Sterling scored a hat-trick as City got their title defence off to a flyer. The match also saw video assistant referee play a significant role for the first time in the Premier League.

There were many average performances from West Ham players throughout the game, but one player who really looked off the pace was Aaron Cresswell.

The 29-year-old really struggled defensively and wasn’t given much help by Michail Antonio either.
