Comeback Cressie gets 50 minutes under belt

|

cressieAaron Cresswell is hoping to be in action for the next League match against  Crystal Palace.

He has made a much quicker than expected return from tje knee ligament injury he sustained during the pre-season game against Karlsruher.

Cressie played 50 minutes in a training ground match against the Hammers PL2 side today and with over a week before the next game at Selhurst Park he hopes to be available for selection.

Hel said: “It feels good to be back out there training with the lads and not being stuck in the gym or the treatment room as I look to get the knee right.

“I could not have asked anymore from the physio’s, especially Eamon, our Rehab Fitness Coach who has helped me out massively over the last 12 weeks.

“It is not just the body, it is the mind as well that you have to get right. For me this is the first time I have had a long-term injury and hopefully it will be the last.
“I am looking forward to getting back in contention. I have played 50 minutes and the knee feels good. I am looking forward to next week.”
