The 28-year-old play-maker has been in sensational form since moving to the London Stadium on loan from Manchester United in January.

He has racked up eight goals and three assists in just nine Premier League games for the Hammers so far.

Lingard was at it again yesterday against Leicester.

Jesse Lingard – a man on fire

The 26-capped England international was unplayable. He played a key role in all of our goals, scoring two and providing a great pass for Tomas Soucek before the Czech star laid the ball off the Jarrod Bowen to make it 3-0 just after half-time.

David Moyes’s men made it a nervy finish to the game once again, however. Declan Rice was like a cat on a hot tin roof in the stands!

The 22-year-old West Ham ace is currently out injured, and he took to Twitter after the match highlighting how stressful the game was to watch:

Romelu Lukaku responded to Declan Rice, suggesting that there is no need to worry with Jesse Lingard on board:

Lingard has been exceptional. We will always have a chance to win games when he is playing.

The West Ham players need to learn how to comfortably see out games, however! It’s no good for us fans watching the match!!!

It’s Newcastle away up next for the Hammers. Three points is an absolute must as we continue our push for Champions League football.

And Lingard will undoubtedly have a key role to play once again if we are to do just that.
