Impact Cresswell put in a sturdy defensive shift Thursday, while adding a little bit on the offensive end as well by creating two scoring chances. The 35-year-old won one tackle, four duels and two aerial battles, while making three interceptions and two clearances.

Impact Cresswell has been on the bench the last couple league matches and went the full 90 Wednesday, showing his fully over his hamstring tweak he had a month ago.

Impact Cresswell was a late scratch for Wednesday's Carabao Cup match after picking up a hamstring issue and will miss even more time due to his issues, having now been ruled out for Saturday's match as well. It is unknown how much time he will miss with the issue but luckily for him, he will have a week to rest without play due to the international break following Saturday's contest. He isn't a player expected to see much time this season, although this will be something to monitor, as he is a decent bench option if injuries start to become an issue.

Late scratch Cresswell was a late scratch before Wednesday's cup clash against Bournemouth.

Impact Cresswell was scratched late ahead of Wednesday's clash after suffering an issue in the warmups. The defender was replaced by Vladimir Coufal, who has been the preferred option in the starting XI when both are fit.

Signs Hammers extension Cresswell signed a one-year extension to remain with West Ham.

Impact Cresswell will stay at the club another season, likely in his continued depth role where he managed just 432 league minutes this past season.

Creates three chances Cresswell recorded six crosses (two accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Burnley.

Impact Cresswell got a rare start during Sunday's draw and he was back to his creative best. It was a reminder of everything Cresswell offers, creativity from open play and dead ball situations, as well as some decent work behind the ball. Still Emerson (groin) remains the preferred option in the starting XI when fit.

Unused sub in Europa League Cresswell (hamstring) was an unused sub in Thursday's 2-1 loss to Olympiacos in the UEFA Europa League.

Impact Cresswell traveled with the team and made the bench but didn't see minutes as the Hammers fell 2-1 in a tough environment in Greece. The fact that Cresswell was available for this match suggests his injury woes are a thing of the past, though, and he should be available when West Ham takes on Everton on Sunday.

OCTOBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Available once more Cresswell (hamstring) traveled for Thursday's trip to Olympiacos and is available, according to manager David Moyes.

Impact Cresswell is back available after five matches on the sideline with a hamstring injury. He will likely be limited for Thursday's clash but could be in line to return to the starting XI for Sunday's Premier League clash with Everton due to the suspension for Emerson. Cresswell has started his only appearance in 2023/24, going unused four times other than that.

Remains out Sunday Cresswell is not in the match day squad to face Aston Villa on Sunday.

Training over break Cresswell (hamstring) was pictured in training over the international break and is expected to be an option Sunday at Aston Villa.

Impact Cresswell should be back in the squad Sunday after missing the last month with a hamstring injury. That being the case, he remains behind Emerson in the depth chart and is simply a bench option at this point in his career. As long as Emerson is healthy, most of Cresswell's playing time will happen in non-league matches such as the FA Cup and Europa League.

OCTOBER 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't be option Thursday Cresswell (hamstring) will be unavailable versus SC Freiburg on Thursday. Manager David Moyes told reporters, "Aaron Cresswell is still out."

Impact Cresswell will be shelved for his third straight match due to his lingering hamstring problem. Considering the quick turnaround, the defender almost certainly won't be in contention for Sunday's clash with Newcastle and figures to use the international break to get back to 100 percent. Even once cleared to play, Cresswell was an unused substitute five times this season and will be a long shot to break into the starting XI.

Ruled out for Saturday Cresswell (hamstring) will not be an option for Saturday's clash with Sheffield United, confirmed manager David Moyes. "Aaron Cresswell has had a bit of a hamstring injury and he's...

Impact Cresswell is progressing well from his hamstring injury, but it's too soon for him to return Saturday. He made just one start this season in Europa League play, playing just 45 minutes before coming off with injury. Emerson is still expected to get the start at left back, even when the defender returns to the squad.

Out with hamstring injury Cresswell is not in the match day squad to face Liverpool on Sunday.

Impact Cresswell made his season debut Thursday in the UEL, but was taken out at halftime with a hamstring issue. It does not seem like the injury is anything serious, but Moyes will be caution in playing him Sunday if he is not 100%. In any case, Emerson is expected to start at left back against Liverpool.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starter for much of season Cresswell kept five clean sheets and recorded an assist in 28 Premier League appearances (24 starts) this season, splitting time with Emerson at left-back.

Impact Cresswell tallied his lowest playing time since 2018/19 in this campaign as he was in regular rotation with summer arrival Emerson. The 33-year-old Cresswell is out of contract with West Ham this summer, so he might be set for a move elsewhere ahead of next season.

Delivers first assist of season Cresswell assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 4-0 win against AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Cresswell played his role well on Saturday as a member of the solid Hammers defense that kept a clean sheet and ensured Bournemouth were denied many opportunities to threaten the net. The veteran defender is not getting as many starts as he used to (he was on the bench without appearance in two of the last six matches) but is still an asset when on the pitch. From 23 appearances (20 starts) this was his first assist and he has contributed to five clean sheets.

APRIL 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Whips in six crosses Cresswell crossed six times (three accurate), created two chances and made four clearances during Saturday's 1-0 win over Fulham.

Impact Cresswell was a part of the West Ham back four that kept a clean sheet on Saturday. The left back had found himself in a backup role of late, but when he plays he remains one of the better attacking fullbacks in the league as he has 111 crosses in 21 appearances.

APRIL 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Relegated to bench role Cresswell -- who missed Saturday's matchup with Chelsea with an illness -- has found himself an unused substitute in his last two appearances.

Impact Cresswell appears to be the odd man out with the Hammers having shifted to a back-three for each of their previous three contests. Still, if Nayef Aguerd (hamstring) is unavailable versus Tottenham on Sunday, Cresswell could return to the starting XI, though he'd be playing in more of a central defensive role instead of out wide.

FEBRUARY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Eight crosses during start Cresswell generated one shot (zero on goal) and eight crosses (two accurate) in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against Wolverhampton.

Impact Since recovering from his hamstring injury, Cresswell was part of the Hammers' starting lineup thrice across their four games from Dec. 26 to Jan. 14. He attempted 20 crosses during that four-game span.

Returns to starting XI Cresswell (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Monday's Boxing Day clash with Arsenal.

The defender had plenty of time to recover though and should be a major part of the West Ham defense once more to kick off the second half of the Premier League.
