It’s full pressure until the end of the campaign and Aaron Cresswell insists the Hammers are up for it as the arrive at the last 90 minutes of a superb campaign.
Some teams may be on the beach this Sunday but that ill be the furthest thing from the Irons minds on the south coast
As has been the case so many times this season we need a win but none more so than than now with a real possibility of clinching that sixth place.
After the incredible season we have enjoyed with our never say die squad it is no more than any of them deserve,
Now we need Palace to do us a favour by ensuring Manchester United don’t get a win at Selhurst Park on Sunday which of course will see us into the top six if we beat the Seagulls.
Cresswell will be playing a major role and he understands precisely how important the game has suddenly become after a City game which saw the Irons at their very best in a real thriller.
Speaking to www.whufc.com he said: “Sixth place is the aim. Now we need one more last big push to get into that sixth spot. So that’s what we’ll be looking to do.
“Brighton is another massive game and one looking forward to.”
Discussing the last match he said: “It was a great atmosphere. When Nobes came on you know the atmosphere just went through the roof and rightly so. What a brilliant man, who’s had a fantastic career and he’s given everything.
“I’ve been with him a long time and every time he puts on that shirt, he gives it his all, so you know the send-off he got was exceptional.”
The left-back concluded by lavishing praise on the whole team for their performance against City, which featured both defensive resilience and incisive play on the counter attack.
“We to stuck the task,” he added. “They found it hard at times to break us down and we caught them on the counter twice and Jarrod scored two unbelievable goals,
“I thought Micky was brilliant as well, along with Pablo playing balls through. that was the game plan, and it was spot on. But I was disappointed that we couldn’t hold on in the end.”
