Nice assist and I thought he was going to seize the chance he was given in his preferred role off the striker, but he was a non factor after the assist, can't believe there was someone in here say he was as good as Griezmann.
Invisible, poor start to the season from him.
Literally assisted Mata’s goal tonight. If he was the only one playing poorly I’d agree, but Sanchez, Rashford, Martial all play badly in this team. Clearly it’s a bigger issue than quality of player.
He hasn't scored in 18 games and has been poor in every game this season pretty much. Jose has alot to be blamed for tactically when it comes to our forwards, but Lingard just isn't good enough consistently.
Hard to play in a broken system. I agree he’s probably a bit inconsistent, but even Sanchez cant play one good game for 90 minutes at the moment.
I'm looking through the names here in the PP forum wondering who even played.
His main problem is he’s far too lightweight. Never seen a player (other than Juan Mata) get shrugged so easily off a ball
Jesse fecking Lingard is a first choice winger for Manchester United. Good lord
Lingard á championship level player at best.
I think hes better in the 'bigger' games than against teams he needs to create (cos he gets the space to work in those games).
Saying that he wasnt good today despite the smart assist.

Rubbish. He has shown he is good enough to play for a mid table team in the Premiership.
Midtable player. A quite good personification of our problems. Which top teams starting side would he get near?hmmmmm. Ill wait.
His output and end product can not be justified in the offensive position he operates, one of our many problems in our attacking play.
Were? Just for England. Iceland should have more pl players after euros and WC if Lingard is pl level!
A trier, but we need slightly more than effort at this level.
Was disappointed with his attitude tonight. Said early on he was a cert to get a booking as he kicked the ball away at every opportunity and petulantly blocked every free kick for the opposition. Grow up, lad. There’s an art to shithousery and you don’t have it.
He is so much better for England.
18 games without a goal?
For an attacking Utd player, that would have been unthinkable in the recent past.

I'd love to know what other top teams that only have 3 up front can carry those kind of numbers. Just not good enough.
We've got Lingard who's gone 18 games without a goal, Martial who only last week scored his first goal since January, Rashford who I think has scored as many times for England in 2018 as he has Utd, Sanchez who's been fecking shit and has scored 2/3 since January and now Lukaku who is missing one or two huge chances every single game.
I't's no wonder we're such a fecking mess.
Became obvious it was just a purple patch last season. Now back to what he has always been.

If Fergie was still manager he would've been sold years ago.
Legend says he's still running .
He is this era's Tom Cleverley. Everyone without the red specs blinds on would have told you he is an average at best player. I fully expected last night for him to score a goal, and then follow up 20 games without contributing anything bar running and movement, and top reds to tell us how he is a local lad, and this and that. Ultimately, it's not the guy's fault, it Mourinho's. He shouldn't be starting for us, he should be fazed out and replaced by more talented players in the future, while finding his level at Watford or something.
I thought he did decently well, played the #10 role and shifted the ball around in attack quite well. Whether Mata would be much more impactful in that free role with Matic and Herrera for insurance is an entirely different debate. Mata has an instinct for goal that Lingard doesn't have.
I can't believe people have been comparing Lingard with Park...he is nowhere close to Park...Park was big game player...lingard is honestly really average...we're playing a squad player as the second striker...we need to get Rashford and Martial playing in the same team...to me Rashford needs to improve his decision making...i just feel like he shoots when he's suppose to be passing...Martial atleast makes better decision when it comes to passing and shooting...i just wish Rashford would go back to how played he's first season where he knew when to pass/shoot...it's like someone from the coaching team told him to be more greedy with ball and it really has affected his game
Not for Jose.
We are a midtable team.
He needs dropping. Try Sanchez as the AMC with Martial left please.
I had the displeasure of having to watch the game again with a friend of mine and he was an absolute beast in the first half. I'd start him against West Ham over Pogba in that attacking midfield role with Fellaini and Matic behind him. Herrera and Pogba haven't cemented the role and unless you play Lingard on the wing I think he's showed some serious tactical promise against Derby.
What? Manchester United? The team that finished 2nd last season? With 81 points?
Doesn't seem to be hitting the form from last season. Personally I think that's mainly down to the imbalance of the current squad.
With all the other players consistently delivering, it's right we single out this guy. Let's burn is Mam's house down.
What ?
Since I wrote that he has had 2 more awful games, so I was wrong. He is worse than I said.
He has had most his games playing as a RW this season. A lot of the Jose fans was telling us that Lingard had improved under him when likewise 'we told them' that it was just because Lingard was playing in his best natural position as a AM/SS that stays behind the striker.
Likewise players like Martial, Sanchez & Rashford have been playing so many varied roles & only a very few games in the best position.
Lingard will get form once he gets a few games at AM /SS again - not the RW he never was.
We are just 1 point above the team in 10th and 8 points below the top team.
