Jesse Lingard’s Manchester United team-mates praise the midfielder after his dreamy West Ham debut

Jesse Lingard received a resounding endorsement from his Manchester United team-mates after scoring a brace on his West Ham debut against Aston Villa.

The midfielder found himself ruled out at Old Trafford and sent on loan to West London as he tried to save his career – and couldn’t have asked for a better start in life at Villa Park as he inspired his new team to a 3-1 victory. .

Although he has struggled to find his best form at United in recent years, he clearly doesn’t lack support from the team, who were quick to congratulate him on his super-fast start after months of being sidelined by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes were applauded by United players after Lingard posted a photo of himself celebrating during the match on the social media platform Instagram captioned: ‘Perfect Start 2 Goals 3 Points ”.

The England striker wrote: ‘Congratulations my brother !! while playmaker Fernandes seemed blown away by his performance – displaying a shocked and inflamed emoji.

Left-back Luke Shaw said: ‘Love it’, while club captain Harry Maguire also showed his support with a few emojis.

A few of Lingard United’s teammates know what it’s like to fall out of favor at Old Trafford. Full-back Diogo Dalot – currently on loan from AC Milan – replied: ‘He’s back’, while Timothy Fosu-Mensah, who left for Bayer Leverkusen this month, sent the player an emoji of hand shake.

Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes led the applause for the midfielder, while Harry Maguire and loan defender Diogo Dalot also received support.

There were also comments from Tahith Chong – on loan to Club Brugge – who said “Happy for you brother”, while young hopefuls James Garner and Dishon Bernard McGhee also praised.

There is hope Lingard – who played for England in their run to the 2018 World Cup semi-finals – can get a makeover at the London Stadium under David Moyes, with the Euros on the horizon this summer.

Prior to the game, he hadn’t played a single minute of Premier League action, limiting himself instead to appearances in cup competitions. He had played 40 times for his childhood team last season, but was criticized for a decline in form.

New boss David Moyes has supported him to rediscover his form and be part of the England squad

Tri-Lions boss Gareth Southgate was on hand to see Lingard’s brace on Wednesday night and Moyes believes he can help the 28-year-old return to the international fold.

“If he keeps that form it might be Gareth who comes back and knocking on the door,” Moyes said after the game.

“He will have his own ambitions and challenges to show people that he is at a level and he has shown a very good level, Ross Barkley is pretty much the same for Villa.

“ There are a lot of people going out of their way to be part of the England squad for the Euros and why shouldn’t Jesse push if he’s in the form he is tonight?

If he continues to play as well as he has he will do a brilliant job for West Ham and if he continues like this he will return to the England squad. I hope he can return to this standard.
