Nuno made 10 changes to the starting lineup following the 1-1 draw with Manchester United, which went into extra time.<\/p>\n<p>Somerville scored an excellent point in the first half of extra time, surviving a red card for a rough tackle on Freddie Potts in the 110th minute.<\/p>\n<p>After the match, pundit Joleon Lescott praised Burton Albion for pushing their Premier League opponents to the end in an interview with TNT Sports.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col text-left focus:outline-none gap-tk-fx-between-elements-md\" data-testid=\"body-thumbnail\">\n<div class=\"group relative w-full\" aria-label=\"Play video\" aria-pressed=\"false\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n<div data-testid=\"body-thumbnail-picture\" class=\"wrapper-16-9 rounded-tk-radius-rs-sm relative\">\n<figure class=\"card-hover-zoom absolute h-full w-full\">\n<div class=\"h-full w-full object-cover\" data-testid=\"blurry-image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"text-transparent h-full w-full object-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/imgresizer.tntsports.io\/unsafe\/1200x0\/filters:format(jpeg)\/origin-imgresizer.tntsports.io\/2026\/02\/14\/image-d89327f3-75c1-437e-b97c-009d0c6fa3e9-85-2560-1440.jpeg\" alt=\"photograph\" data-testid=\"image-high-res\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"body-thumbnail-caption text-content-block-default-text-fill-03\" data-testid=\"body-thumbnail-caption\">\n<p class=\"typo-tk-rs-caption-xs\">Somerville&#8217;s solo stunner finally breaks Burton&#8217;s resistance<\/p>\n<p class=\"typo-tk-rs-caption-xs\">Video credit: TNT Sports<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>He said: &#8220;What separated the teams was their individual Premier League quality. Barton can take a lot of credit for their performance and for the first hour or so they consistently matched West Ham&#8217;s effort and energy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Cole agreed, adding: &#8220;They just do what they say they&#8217;re going to do. They were going to make it ugly and they did. West Ham don&#8217;t have space in midfield. They don&#8217;t have space for Callum Wilson, they don&#8217;t have space for Adama Traore.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I thought Nuno could have made a change sooner. West Ham had a lot of control but you have to trust the bench. Tati (Castellanos) and Somerville just played it and they scored from behind.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lescott has been impressed with Somerville&#8217;s form, with the 24-year-old Dutch winger scoring five goals this season and in his best form this season after improving his fitness following injury problems.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He could have gone down here and I think that shows a lot of confidence. Although he is far from the goal, he still believes he has a chance. No one can match his speed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col text-left focus:outline-none gap-tk-fx-between-elements-md\" data-testid=\"body-thumbnail\">\n<div class=\"group relative w-full\" aria-label=\"Play video\" aria-pressed=\"false\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n<div data-testid=\"body-thumbnail-picture\" class=\"wrapper-16-9 rounded-tk-radius-rs-sm relative\">\n<figure class=\"card-hover-zoom absolute h-full w-full\">\n<div class=\"h-full w-full object-cover\" data-testid=\"blurry-image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"text-transparent h-full w-full object-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/imgresizer.tntsports.io\/unsafe\/1200x0\/filters:format(jpeg)\/origin-imgresizer.tntsports.io\/2026\/02\/14\/image-6e87d6ef-83bd-400f-ba33-82737d6d2752-85-2560-1440.jpeg\" alt=\"photograph\" data-testid=\"image-high-res\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"body-thumbnail-caption text-content-block-default-text-fill-03\" data-testid=\"body-thumbnail-caption\">\n<p class=\"typo-tk-rs-caption-xs\">Net delay begins at Burton &#8211; &#8220;We haven&#8217;t even kicked off yet!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"typo-tk-rs-caption-xs\">Video credit: TNT Sports<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>And Cole suggested that if Somerville and fellow wideman Jarrod Bowen reach their full potential, it could be enough to keep West Ham in the Premier League for another season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He&#8217;s a confident young man,&#8221; he observed. \u201cI think I said a few weeks ago that if he performs to the best of his ability alongside Bowen, West Ham can get back into the relegation battle and survive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>West Ham&#8217;s next match is at home to Bournemouth on Saturday, February 21st.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col text-left focus:outline-none gap-tk-fx-between-elements-md\" data-testid=\"body-thumbnail\">\n<div class=\"group relative w-full\" aria-label=\"Play video\" aria-pressed=\"false\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\">\n<div data-testid=\"body-thumbnail-picture\" class=\"wrapper-16-9 rounded-tk-radius-rs-sm relative\">\n<figure class=\"card-hover-zoom absolute h-full w-full\">\n<div class=\"h-full w-full object-cover\" data-testid=\"blurry-image-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"text-transparent h-full w-full object-cover\" src=\"https:\/\/imgresizer.tntsports.io\/unsafe\/1200x0\/filters:format(jpeg)\/origin-imgresizer.tntsports.io\/2026\/02\/14\/image-66dce722-4958-4886-b563-34da8e295bc7-85-2560-1440.jpeg\" alt=\"photograph\" data-testid=\"image-high-res\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"body-thumbnail-caption text-content-block-default-text-fill-03\" data-testid=\"body-thumbnail-caption\">\n<p class=\"typo-tk-rs-caption-xs\">&#8216;I&#8217;m really, really happy to get through&#8217; &#8211; Nuno praises West Ham players after Barton&#8217;s win<\/p>\n<p class=\"typo-tk-rs-caption-xs\">Video credit: TNT Sports<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wrap-anywhere typo-tk-rs-body-md text-content-block-default-text-fill-01\" data-testid=\"body-paragraph\">Stream the Premier League, Men&#8217;s and Women&#8217;s FA Cups, UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, UEFA Conference League and more on TNT Sports and Discovery+<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tntsports.co.uk\/football\/premier-league\/2025-2026\/west-ham-fa-cup-joe-cole-burton-relegation_sto23270837\/story.shtml\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;I&#8217;m in a good space&#8217; &#8211; Somerville reflects on his good form after scoring against Burton Video credit: TNT Sports Joe Cole believes Saturday&#8217;s match-winner Crisencio Somerville can keep West Ham in the Premier League this season.
