Jesse Lingard Appreciation Thread (self.reddevils)

playaslaya31Cantona が 投稿

I know there's a handful of players who deserve our appreciation, but for me Lingard has been huge for us and increasingly more reliable. Understandably, his first games were shaky with mistakes on the ball and discipline with positioning, but he appears to have become much more comfortable on the field and confident on the ball. Really can't wait to see where our youngSTARS will be in the coming years. Thoughts?

I appreciate his effort, done well for his first actual prem season but I don't think he should be startin every game for us, we need a better RW

He's surely not the greatest RW but he does a hell of a job. In the last 2 games he's been played as a #10 switching occasionally with Mata for the RW and he's looked deadly as a 10. He's pace and his relentless tracking back have been huge for us in midfield. Sure he's not the most talented dribbler but I think at this moment he offers us the best attacking option on the RW. Rashford looked good out there as well.

I don't know why there is a consistent talk of preferring Memphis to him but I have seen nothing in terms of consistency from Memphis and in a season that's been quite shit, Lingard has been pretty steady on the RW. He might not become world class or anything but I think he's game will definitely grow and he'll continue to contribute immensely to the squad.

Also a mancunian and an academy kid. Happy to see him do well.

He needs to work on his shooting.

He's not Mancunian he's from Warrington - but I agree with the rest of your points.

He needs to work on his shooting and final passing and he'll be a quality player for the future. I'd like to see us buy a proven RW player and rotate him.

Ah assumed he was mancunian based on what I'd heard. Thanks tho.

Assuming that /u/black_squire knows anything about anything he talks about.

I'm not gonna say that some of the flack towards him are undeserved, but if he refines his game he could very well be a useful team player. We don't always need Cristiano's and Scholesy's on the pitch.

I had my doubts about Ji when he came into the squad (has it already been 10 years?), but with Fergie's tactics and instructions he was always an important player in crucial games or off the bench. Perhaps Jesse can be one too- his willingness to track back and be that extra man in defense can be useful with proper strategic management.

LVG said he sees him as more of a midfielder than a winger and I'd agree. Play him in a midfield 3 and he'll probably shine a bit more. He doesn't have the quality to play on the wing and excel.

For some time yesterday it looked like he was in the middle of a front three with Rashford drifting in in front of him time to time.

I'd personally rather have Memphis play than him.

Lingard has been more consistent statswise as well as the performance wise this season. Don't know why you would want Depay ahead of him.

Much more complete player and younger and has a infinitesimally higher ceiling.

[–]mikeman1997Herrera 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Witnessing Di Maria all over again. He will get no playing time then people will hate him when he decides to leave and becomes great.

I don't understand all the people who say they'd rather have Memphis than Lingard right now. Lingard is older than Memphis and is much more consistent. And contrary to popular opinion, he has a high potential. You don't get to play through the Academy all these years and break through into the first team without having skill and consistency. He ticks the front four more than any one else in our team. Memphis doesn't have the same consistency as him. He will in the future but not right now.

Yes, I would like a skillful right winger but at the moment I am glad Lingard is playing for us. And, I consider him our version of Thomas Muller. I hope he improves his finishing and stay with us for a long time.
