Jesse Lingard has been one of the breakout stars of the season for Manchester United, and over the last month or so he has been superb. He scored his first goal, earned his first international call-up and looked like a real threat to opposition defences.
He has spoken out about playing for the club he supports, and added that it comes with a lot of pressure.
“Playing for Manchester United comes with a lot of pressure. If you’re out of a competition, you’re going to get critics.” Lingard said. “We just need to stay positive. We’re creating a lot of chances, we’re just lacking that end product. But we’re working on it.”
Its refreshing to see someone admit that there is pressure on his shoulders whilst playing for Manchester United, but Jesse Lingard seems to be taking it all in his stride.
He must be absolutely loving life at the club at the moment, he’s getting regular game time and on the whole impressing. If there is one area that he could work on personally, it’d probably be his finishing.
