I think I'm further down the line than you, but if his form dips between now and the end of the season then it will be nothing more than a Winter purple patch. He's always scored worldies, hes always got himself in to good areas, so that's no gauge.... but he's improving his general play. He's better centrally, he's go full-on Anderson with his 'running with the ball'. He's a threat now. More than I thought he would be. Like you, more than happy to be wrong if he can keep it up. If he's still doing this at the same time next year then I think we'll be looking at a genuine development of a player who is crucial for club and country. |

You don't need to exaggerate to make the point. What's Jesse got for the season? 12? 12 for a midfielder who doesn't play every game is already excellent.. |

Less of the 'just making a nusiance'...
Lingard's performances are evolving, when he's in the right role, down the centre, playing off the striker. His 'perpetual' running' is now less about making a nuisance of himself and has become more thoughtful and enterprising.
He still needs to improve his distribution and his first touch, but he is improving, you can see that, which is more than be said for some others whose progress has ground to a halt! |

He still spends a lot of time floating about without effect.
However, when he gets the ball 30-40 yards from goal and runs at the opposing centre halves he has the ability to create havoc. In a game where the other side a maintaining a deep lying, rigid back line someone like that can be the spark needed to unsettle them. |
