Fairly accurate really. It wasn't great but it was reasonable, like almost all Lingard's games. He will always give you a 6-7/10 performance and against poor teams can step it up and cause real damage.
Sometimes, well a lot of times, the video makers aren't thorough enough with their work and the video misses touches. However, it's good to show things like aerial duels too. I haven't watched the Lingard one or know what actions will be missing so my comment is more from past experience. I know the Pogba videos often miss touches.
Yep silent domination.....
It depends how you view the game and/or understand the importance of options.
This really. No sarcasm or joking around.
thats just too general assessment of him and he doesnt really have pace, hes clever little player who is not a winger in the first place but can do a job there.. shouldnt be nowhere near the starting XI, just tired of this shit, yes hes lucky that martial got injured but mickitaryan has shown nothing so far and martial himself is in a poor form, Depay is Depay yeah. Think Lingard did pretty well to start more often than not ahead of "one of the best attacking talents in the world" and The Pie was certainly rated really high before the transfer..
In terms of game influence, he's underwhelming in overall; but he always has his 'moment' in almost every game I've watched. I personally think he could make his name as a "super-sub".
Agree. He had a good game with his pressing, passing and movement.
Disagree, having a bunch of 'moments' isn't his game and they aren't the only way to influence a game. His game influence is good overall because he makes the team and the players around him better which is exactly what you want from him.
The problem with Martial is that he doesn't offer much movement unlike Jesse. I think Martial would be better as a wide forward in Pep's side because his teams are experts at creating situations where their wide forwards have space to run into, hence Stering's mini renaissance and why Pep wanted to buy him at Bayern.
I've been more impressed by him this season, He seems to actually want the ball alot more now and is making the runs to take defenders away as you say above. Last season he was hiding to not get the ball alot and being far too basic which you cannot get away with playing for this club.
'Hater' term thrown in again. No one in here is 'hating' him, Jesse has the right to be criticised like every other player in the team. It's crazy that no one can say anything negative about the guy without being labelled a 'hater'. Never seen it like this before for any other player. You would think it was Messi the way people cling on to this guy.
Which player doesnt? Messi is best in the world and even he has limitations and weaknesses to his game.
5000th post! Get in SB!
feck didnt know that i have so many.....great thread for a landmark
Messi vs. Lingard, what a comparison.
Lingard gets the same emulation on here as Messi
Ok, thats fair but its important to see what are player weaknesses and how does they effect his performances in the given role. For the role Jesse has, his qualities have a much bigger edge over his weaknesses, at least IMO.
He appears to be an intolerable unfunny idiot. Not that it matters in the slightest regarding his on-pitch performances.
The two are not exactly mutually exclusive, whilst I think hes a bit of an idiot for his social media posts, it has nothing to do with his application to the game tbh. Everyone has free time and what he choses to do with it, is his choice tbh
He's a bit childish isn't he? That would really get on my nerves.
