Not to draw any massive conclusions from one game, but today was a good example of what we'd get if we bring Lingard back IMO. As soon as he was faced with a packed and settled defence he went back to the Lingard we saw during his last year with us. Move around a bit, come short when nothing's on, play a short one-two with the centre half/CDM and then move into another packed space.
The difference during his time at West Ham is that he's not usually facing those defences whereas he'll be doing that with us. Anyone thinking we'll see the West Ham Lingard at United if we bring him back are deluding themselves. Better to capitalise on his value increase during the summer.
