WHZ View: West Ham ace continues to shine v Man City after long absence
West Ham United picked up a solid point against Manchester City in the Premier League with a 1-1 draw at the London Stadium.
The Irons actually took the lead against City, with Michail Antonio scoring a wonderful bicycle kick after great work from Vladimir Coufal.
After facing great pressure from the away side, a Phil Foden goal handed them an equaliser but they couldn’t make it any more.
David Moyes appears to have found the perfect formula for the Irons.
Having switched to five-at-the-back, the Irons boss has found a way to bring back Arthur Masuaku into his side after a long absence.
Despite Aaron Cresswell struggling, the Congo wing-back was left out in the cold by many in recent times.
He is finally back, and once again he proved himself with an excellent display against Manchester City facing up against the likes of Raheem Sterling.
Masuaku dominates again
According to WhoScored, the 26-year-old completed five tackles down the left-hand side, keeping Riyad Mahrez relatively quiet.
On top of that, Masuaku also completed two progressive dribbles and had one shot on goal against City in the draw.
Having less defensive responsibility is clearly benefitting the wing-back, and he is relishing the opportunity to cement his spot and get forward whenever he likes.
