Tottenham supporters have every reason to worry after Crysencio Summerville’s comments about their defenders.
West Ham United winger Crysencio Summerville caused Tottenham Hotspur’s defenders major problems on Saturday.
Summerville netted West Ham’s opening goal against Tottenham, helping his side secure a crucial three points in the derby. After the match, he openly expressed his love for the club.
The 24-year-old winger has been in impressive form for the Hammers in recent weeks, and Nuno Espirito Santo will likely continue relying on his talent in the upcoming fixtures.
His ability to keep Spurs’ defenders on the back foot throughout the game was thrilling for West Ham supporters.
Tottenham fans will be worried by Summerville’s comments
Summerville was almost unplayable at times during the match in north London. Speaking to West Ham’s official site after the win, he said:
“I’m really excited and happy right now. Getting the win and three points at a place like this is huge. I think we fought well as a team today.
Personally, I feel I’m in a good space. I was happy to score. I think they knew I’m dangerous one-on-one, so I took them on, took a shot, and it went in. There was a deflection, but it’s my goal for sure!
They came back to make it 1-1, and it was important we stayed calm. It could’ve gone either way, but this time it went in our favour, and we’re delighted to take the three points. Hopefully we can build on the positives now.”
If you’re a Tottenham supporter reading that, it’s hard not to feel concerned.
Summerville exposes a big Tottenham weakness
It was clear that Spurs’ defenders were nervous whenever Summerville had the ball.
Meanwhile, Thomas Frank’s position as manager feels increasingly fragile. Tottenham have struggled all season, and losing at home to a West Ham side that has also been inconsistent is simply unacceptable for the fans.
At this point, the only realistic solution seems to be a managerial change. The longer Frank remains in charge, the more problems Tottenham will face in the future.
