West Ham United defender Aaron Cresswell has described Dimitri Payet as a "fantastic signing" for the club.

The French attacking midfielder has scored one goal in three games for the Hammers since arriving at Upton Park from Marseille for nearly £11m earlier this summer.

While taking time to praise all of the club's recent additions, Cresswell has been particularly impressed by Payet's contribution to the team.

"I think the new boys have been excellent so far," he told the club's official website. "It's still early doors but I think Dimitri has been a fantastic signing and looks like he is a fantastic player. He has got a goal and an assist in the first two games, so hopefully he can carry that form on throughout the season and we can be consistent as a team."

West Ham are back in Premier League action today when they entertain Bournemouth.
