Bruno Fernandes stated on Instagram that Manchester United loanee, Jesse Lingard, ‘is on fire’ after his stunning performance for West Ham on Monday night.
West Ham recorded an entertaining 3-2 win over Wolves, with Lingard opening the scoring with an outstanding solo goal before providing Jarrod Bowen with an assist for his side’s third of the game.
It could have been pretty easy for Lingard to stay at Manchester United this season and train week in, week out, collect his wages and go home.
But that decision to move to West Ham in January has been a game-changer and he is now one of the in-form players in the Premier League.
This is how Lingard reacted on Instagram to West Ham’s win on Monday, with Marcus Rashford also sharing his thoughts to his performance by simply stating: ‘Love that, my bro’.
Whether Lingard is scoring from 20 yards out against Arsenal or dancing his way from inside his own half like he did yesterday.
There is no stopping the quick-footed playmaker, at this moment in time.
In this form, he is a certainty for the Euros and that is some turnaround given that five months ago he couldn’t even get into Manchester United’s matchday squad.
