On a night when West Ham unveiled a new-look strike partnership, it was Summerville who grabbed the headlines. <\/p>\n
For the first time since December, Nuno opted for a front two – Castellanos and Callum Wilson – in an attempt to spark his side’s survival bid.<\/p>\n
But it was Summerville who continued his mission to keep the Hammers afloat, finishing with the composure of a veteran at Craven Cottage.<\/p>\n
Since the turn of the year, the 24-year-old has scored seven of West Ham’s 17 goals in all competitions – with five of them coming in the Premier League.<\/p>\n
After a difficult first 18 months following his \u00a325m move from Leeds in 2024, the winger has emerged as a beacon of hope for Hammers supporters in recent weeks.<\/p>\n
For 14 minutes on Wednesday night, his strike had lifted his side out of the relegation zone – at Nottingham Forest’s expense – for the first time since December.<\/p>\n
Although Forest later fought back to claim a point against Manchester City at the Etihad, West Ham have the Midlands club in their sights and are only a point behind Tottenham who host Crystal Palace on Thursday.<\/p>\n
If the Hammers are to beat the drop and preserve their Premier League status, Summerville is likely to have a decisive say.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On a night when West Ham unveiled a new-look strike partnership, it was Summerville who grabbed the headlines.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":329279,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[61,60,112],"class_list":["post-329278","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/329278","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=329278"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/329278\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/329279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=329278"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=329278"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=329278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
