How West Ham could line up v Man United on 13 August if they sign £20m-rated midfielder

Aaron Creswell – left-back

One of the most consistent performers of the West Ham side, England international Cresswell is likely to be the first name on Bilic’s team sheet.

Back-up Arthur Masuaku’s struggle with both form and injury has seen him fall way below the Liverpool-born defender, and faces a fight to work his way into the side.

But Cresswell will start on the left side of defence against United, unless he succumbs to injury himself.
