Playing him as a number 10 as he has today does not help him. Mourinho needs to have a word with himself, asking him to do a job he's never going to be able to do. Now mata has gone hunting for the ball and its all crammed in the centre. Just stick Lingard wide and let him try and stretch them.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

It's not just this season with Lingard though. Was the same when he started last season to. He has absolutely no business starting league games for this club.
I am curious. If you put blind or stuart downing or bebe or any random player ( or even any random person) instead of him , would result be different?
Ok, i went too far, sorry...
Ok, i went too far, sorry...
This guy plays number 10 and he does is run far ahead of lukaku. Play your position and see how midfield works, pointless player ever seen for united
The new tom cleverly.
Downing would probably get a few assists for Lukaku.
He wouldn’t be a number 10 for a championship team. It’s completely unbelievable.
He runs around a bit I'll give him that. Crazy at the start of the season people suggested he could make it better as a wing back 
He really is. He gets away with being shit because he's from our academy.
You play mediocrity, you get mediocrity.
Bang average isn't he
Well that's just it isn't it? He's not completely shite - just totally average.
They have KDB we have Lingard.
Awful today.
Fixed
Should be nowhere near a Man Utd side.
Should never start a game for us
Lasted 90mins tells a lot what Jose likes in players.
Could you imagine how much we'd all laugh here if City were trotting our Lingard at 10 while we had KDB?
This guy asking for the ball in halfway line acting like a fecking playmaker only to pass it sideway, why he survive 90 minutes is beyond me
He’s started 3 games all season and we’ve lost 2 of them
I said start him over Mkhitaryan today but never again, never ever again
I said start him over Mkhitaryan today but never again, never ever again
Can't stand him.
At least he wanted the ball, tried to create something, which is more than can be said for a few our players today.
He is nothing worse than Mkhitarian. At least Lingard doesn't lose the ball as much as him.
Get rid. Maybe I'm biased because his dancing and general childishness really grates on me but he's not good enough. Hopefully his last game for a long while.
Agree, doesn't say much for Mourinho as a manager.
He should be sold, he really is rubbish. He isn’t even young anymore either, he is 24, 25 in December. It really is baffling why he still starts games. He offers nothing at all.
Most pointless player United has ever had? Surely has to be.
Keep Mata or Lingard, when you are 2 goals down? hmmm..
Can't believe this guy plays for United.
The worst number 10 I have ever seen play for United on a regular basis. Get shut! Oh but wait we can’t sell him because he’s on £110k/week. What a joke
He'd look crap playing for Crystal Palace. Feck knows why he's stinking out our team.
He gave everything today. He tried to make the difficult pass.
But he is neat and tidy.
Put any United fan on the pitch and We can all run towards the ball too and shout for them to pass to me.
fraud
He's the worst footballer ever.
What about keeping Martial. I am still baffled how Lingard was not subbed yet Martial was. It's like Mourinho has swore some oath to not play Martial and Rashford together no matter what the situation requires.
Looked like some kid that won a contest to play for us.
I made a sound like a deflated balloon when I saw him in the starting lineup.
