Jesse is most effective when playing quick one-twos & making runs in behind the opposition defences, the latter being shown below against Cardiff (ignore Hugo in the celebrations at the end) :
His ability to receive the ball in space, turn and make space for a shot is hugely underrated imo as shown below away at Everton (Hugo could only dream of doing this https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😁" title="Grinning face with smiling eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Grinning face with smiling eyes">):
Lingard also has the knack of stepping up in big moments when needed as shown below on the FA Cup final against Palace:
I’d prefer we keep Lingard and sell A*dreas as Jesse offers more and is one of the reasons why we’ve even won silveraware after Sir Alex retried.
