Some six weeks or so later, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hammers.news\/tag\/nuno-espirito-santo\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Nuno Espirito Santo<\/a> now has the benefit of being able to call the former Leeds talisman one of the most potent weapons in his own attacking arsenal.<\/p>\n<p>During the first two <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hammers.news\/club\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">West Ham United<\/a> matches of the post-Graham Potter era, Nuno has fielded Summerville wide on the left, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hammers.news\/tag\/jarrod-bowen\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jarrod Bowen<\/a> on the right, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hammers.news\/tag\/lucas-paqueta\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lucas Paqueta<\/a> through the middle.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hammers.news\/tag\/luis-guilherme-2\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Luis Guilherme<\/a>, meanwhile, has only played 54 minutes across a trio of appearances. <\/p>\n<p>Yet, speaking on the official <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-tO9daRADoI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Premier League YouTube channel<\/a>, Summerville insists that no one should be sleeping on the talent of a 19-year-old Brazilian who still hopes to bring Jogo Bonito to East London.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/GettyImages-2226561721-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Luis Guilherme in action for West Ham in pre-season\" class=\"wp-image-272290\" \/>Photo by Rich Graessle\/Icon Sportswire via Getty ImagesCrysencio Summerville labels Luis Guilherme one of West Ham United\u2019s most skilful stars<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of the launch of EA Sports FC 26 video game, Summerville was asked to select the players with the highest skill rating at West Ham.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will say Lucas Paqueta, I will back myself, [and] Jarrod,\u201d he said. \u201cDon\u2019t get me wrong, Luis is there as well!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Imagine his disappointment, then, it was revealed to a flabbergasted Summerville that he actually falls behind Paqueta, Bowen and the twinkle-toed teenager he is currently keeping out of Nuno\u2019s starting XI.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo way!\u201d Summerville said with a laugh, given a \u2018three star skill move\u2019 rating in comparison to Guilherme\u2019s four. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s crazy! I think I have to do more skills in the games, then! Don\u2019t worry, the next game [against Brentford on October 20th], I will show you some. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cLuis is really skilful. Jarrod as well and Lucas. But I will back myself, I\u2019m there [among them].<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m more like a street footballer. I like to come inside and [perform a] \u2018fake shot\u2019. I think it\u2019s very important because, from what I have seen, not a lot of English players come from the streets. They are more physical and stuff. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut we started in the streets, Lucas, me and Luis. If you bring that to the game, you bring a different fight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nuno keeping the positives and trusting in youth at West Ham<\/p>\n<p>Of Guilherme\u2019s three appearances this term, one came under Nuno. He played the final 13 minutes of that 1-1 draw at Everton on a night when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hammers.news\/news\/30m-star-says-jarrod-bowen-is-not-the-only-west-ham-player-who-can-do-magic\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Summerville and Bowen brought their \u2018magic\u2019<\/a> to proceedings.<\/p>\n<p>The \u00a325 million signing from Palmeiras will have been pleased to hear Nuno put his faith in the brightest young talent at Rush Green, meanwhile, shortly after taking over from a manager who afforded little opportunities to the likes of Freddie Potts and Callum Marshall.<\/p>\n<p>Actions speak louder than words, of course. And Nuno proved that what he says he means, when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hammers.news\/news\/nuno-explains-callum-marshall-sub-and-what-referee-said-about-west-ham-penalty\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Marshall made his Premier League debut at Arsenal<\/a> before the October international break.<\/p>\n<p>After that eventual 2-0 defeat, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hammers.news\/match-report\/crysencio-summerville-reveals-what-nuno-told-the-west-ham-players-after-arsenal-loss\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Summerville revealed that Nuno is staying positive<\/a> despite picking up just one point from his first two games in charge. Albeit two very difficult games.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we did quite good in first half,\u201d Summerville told\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/football\/live\/cz69g6xvg24t\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">BBC Sport<\/a>. \u201cWe slowed [Arsenal] down sometimes but a team like this it\u2019s always difficult.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think, in the second half, they went over us and it was difficult to slow them down sometimes. We have to take the positives and go again after the break.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[Nuno] said, like, we have to take the positives. We knew it would be difficult and we have work to do after the international break.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Luis Guilherme has a long, long way to go before he can claim to be just as integral&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":188687,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[63541,218,54937,20666,5432,221,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-188686","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-crysencio-summerville","tag-football","tag-jarrod-bowen","tag-lucas-paqueta","tag-luis-guilherme","tag-premier-league","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/188686","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=188686"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/188686\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/188687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=188686"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=188686"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=188686"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
