Lingard joined the Hammers on loan from Manchester United last month until the end of the season.
And that signing is already looking like a genius move from David Moyes.
The 28-year-old absolutely ran the show at Villa Park last night.
He was absolutely everywhere and scored West Ham’s second and third goals.
David Moyes names Hammer who improved because of Jesse Lingard
Lingard made us tick. The 24-capped England international dictated the tempo of our attacking play and worked hard defensively.
David Moyes raved about the Manchester United-owned ace and suggested that he actually made Michail Antonio look better, as quoted by Football.London:
“Mick played much better tonight, he looked a bigger threat, and maybe Jesse helped him look better and feel better, he got in the right positions.”
Antonio has had a rough time in front of goal of late.
The 30-year-old is so important to the way that West Ham play, however. The goals will come, he just needs to keep working hard.
The Hammers ace was a real menace last night, especially in the second-half.
And hopefully Jesse Lingard’s arrival at the London Stadium will continue to bring the best our of Micky.
