Aaron Cresswell is convinced West Ham United can achieve something special with the current team.

The fullback has extended his deal with the Irons until 2023, which could take the No3 up to nine years in Claret and Blue.

He said, “Going back to the last year we had at the Boleyn, we had a good squad. But look at this squad, the depth, the players and the signings we are making.

“We've got two players for each position so if someone gets injured there is always someone to step up. Certainly, in the time I've been here, it's been the best squad I've been involved in.

“We want something special to happen. Come the end of the season, whether we have a good cup run or finish as high as possible in the league, that's what we're aiming to do. We want to take each game as it is and try to take maximum points and play good football at the same time.

“This year we've shown some brilliant results and played some brilliant football. Long may that continue."
