If Lingard had a good game, what would he be doing?
Beating players and having lots of chances? Getting to the line and whipping in cross after cross and creating?
What? Because I don't think I've ever, ever seen him do that. Even when he has one of his 'Feck you haterz, he scored!' appearances, I don't think he's ever done that form a platform of having what you'd objectively call a good game. Astonishing that after 80+ appearances for the first team I don't think we actually know what kind of player he is. Maybe we're all way off and what he actually is is a frustrated defensive midfielder. But for someone that could be vaguely termed 'attacking' player, he has seldom really ever shown any talent in that respect, at least as a senior player.
