Aaron Wan-Bissaka wows as he destroys Manchester United in return for West Ham win
Graham Potter finally guided his West Ham side to another win in the Premier League, with a 2-0 victory against Manchester United.
It hasn’t been an easy ride for the boss since he arrived in East London earlier in the season, but his side have now jumped up to 15th in the Premier League.
The boss will be looking ahead to the summer transfer window now, knowing there is plenty of work to be done to strengthen ahead of next season.
With that in mind, in the final games of the season, there will be some in Claret and Blue who could be using this as an audition for their place next term.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka praised after West Ham win
There certainly haven’t been many players who have covered themselves in glory for West Ham throughout the campaign.
One man who has been a rare shining light, though, is Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who has stepped up especially in the latter stages of the season.
The 27-year-old has made 37 Premier League appearances, boasting six goal contributions this term, registering another assist on Sunday (11 May).

| 34 | 2 | 4 |
The right-back was strong in his defensive work against Manchester United, too, as the hosts had 20 shots throughout the 90 minutes.
Wan-Bissaka was praised for his performance by Russell Martin on Match of the Day 2 (11 May), as he said: “Wan-Bissaka I thought had an outstanding game as well.
“He was, so much energy and athleticism on that side of the pitch.”
Wan-Bissaka continues to shine for West Ham
Upon his return to Old Trafford, Wan-Bissaka certainly had a performance to remember as he was the standout man for the Hammers.
Potter will be looking at an overhaul when it comes to his West Ham squad this season, but with PSR restrictions having their part to play, the boss will also need to retain a core spine of the team.
With that in mind, the defender is certainly someone who has proven he can be part of that core group going forward at the London Stadium, showing both his talent and his leadership throughout a difficult stage in the season.
The Irons haven’t had much to smile about of late, but with two games left to go this term, the boss will be eager to build upon this victory and end the campaign on a high.
