What is triggering Lingard's current form? Is it less pressure or just a (hugely impressive) purple patch?
A bit of both I think. He did have a similar purple patch with United as well at one point a few seasons ago as well.

Will be very interesting to see how Ole fits Lingard in next season. Bruno dropped?
We will probably sell Lingard. If he shows this sort of form till the summer, I think we will probably get a good a value for him so he will be sold.

Remember he was playing like this for us and England but he then thought he'd "made it" which included ridiculous and childish behaviour on social media - he then started getting some stick and hiding in matches resulting in loss of confidence.

Pleased for him but I wouldn't have him back - we all sometimes need a fresh challenge in life and this is going well for all of us

I don't have anything against Leicester at all, but if they bottle what should've been a guaranteed top 4 finish two seasons in a row it will be funny.

Wonder where they chose to draw the lines this time. Really is up to the discretion of whoever’s in charge which is why there’s so many mistakes

Unfortunately there is no way we can fit him in that role ..

Hope he gets a great move... and hope he doesnt score against us.. that's it :D

This Top 4 race looks great, it's more fun when you can look down at the teams fighting for it :lol:

Preferred role.. getting a lot of minutes.. Low pressure obviously helps.. both criticism from outside and knowing his position isnt constantly under threat..

It sucks he didnt do that here.. having a home grown player make it is always great.. he clearly can do great things..

Delighted he is doing well.. Has apparently had some rough time in his personal life in the recent past too. A change is probably just what he needed.
