Crysencio Summerville proves he could be West Ham’s saviour

As the travelling West Ham supporters descended into pandemonium at Craven Cottage, Crysencio Summerville stood still, arms outstretched and smiling.

The Dutchman had every reason to grin as he celebrated his fifth Premier League goal of the season to help the Hammers to a vital 1-0 victory against Fulham.

His 65th-minute strike was enough to continue the his side’s quest for Premier League survival in 2026 – on a night when they gained two points on 17th-place Nottingham Forest.

Speaking to TNT Sports, Summerville said: “We have to fight until the end, that’s what we did. I am very pleased to get the three points.”

The forward – who struggled for both form and confidence after joining from Leeds United 18 months ago – has now managed more goals in his last 10 appearances for the club (seven), than he did in his first 38 (one).

“I am in a good space. I love to play, I am just happy to be back and I try to show it every week,” added the winger.

“We have to keep going now. We took positives from the Liverpool game, we had lots of positives, the fans behind us are very pleased and we are going in the right direction – the only way is up.”

But it’s not only Summerville who is finding his feet as the business end of the season looms – West Ham are, too.

The Hammers have now accumulated 14 of their 28 points this season in their past eight Premier League games.

Such an impressive run for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side means that if they defeat Manchester City when they return to Premier League action on 14 March, they will be out of the relegation zone for the first time since December.
