At Euro 2021, England, as one of the favourites to win the title, has a big club on standby at all positions. However, after announcing the final roster, many fans sighed, because the outstanding "Lin Huang" Lingard after joining West Ham United on loan in the winter window finally lost. What is the charm of Jesse Lingard? Let's walk into his story today.
Jesse Lingard should be considered a die-hard fan of Manchester United. He entered Liverpool's academy at the age of 7, but moved ship to Manchester United's academy a year later. On August 16, 2014, Jesse Lingard put on the Red Devils shirt for the first time and stepped onto the turf of the Theatre of Dreams. But Heaven struck him hard – he was badly injured in the 24th minute, and after this injury, it was 14 months after he played for Manchester United again. After that, Jesse Lingard always saw a satisfied smile on his face, not a smile of satisfaction with the status quo, but his satisfaction with putting on the Red Devils shirt and playing for Manchester United. He has experienced the trough, and now he can laugh at all the difficulties in life.
In fact, Jesse Lingard's talent is not outstanding, but the reason why he can have a place in Manchester United is entirely due to his physical running on the field and absolute obedience to the coach's tactics. And he also repaid the manager's trust with his actions: in the 15-17 season, Jesse Lingard scored three goals in three finals to help United win three trophies. Especially the Community Shield, facing Leicester City, which has just achieved the "Blue Fox Miracle", he singled out the Blue Fox defense and scored a superb goal.
Not only was his performance on the field, but his celebratory action after scoring the goal was also remarkable: you would hardly see him having repeated celebrations. The combination of good ball skills and "dancing king", such a Lingard quickly won the love of a large number of fans. In China, all kinds of famous sentences about him have emerged in an endless stream, the most classic of which is the one: "Your Lin Emperor, infinite madness."
Now that the "child's dream" has come true, Lingard has set his sights on the stage of the World Cup. At the 2018 World Cup in Russia, Jesse Lingard went with the England national team to compete. England played without baggage in the group stage, and the whole team was driven by happy Jesse Lingard and Sterling. He defeated Colombia on penalties in the round of 16 and Sweden in the round of 8, creating the best World Cup record in England's history since 1990.
But after the End of the World Cup, Lingard's home was suddenly changed, and his relatives were continuously found to have serious diseases, which also affected Lingard's state. In the new season, Jesse Lingard scored only one goal in the final game of the league, and the earth-shaking changes made him the target of criticism by fans. Unable to play, he eventually chose to join West Ham on loan in the winter window of 20-21. And that was a perfect loan trip: the debut was a two-time draw, with eight goals and three assists in nine games, and took on 11 of the team's 15 goals. In February and March, he was nominated for the Premier League's Best of the Month, and in April, he became the best player of the month.
However, such a performance did not allow him to participate in this year's European Championship is indeed a big regret for fans. However, in the new season, Jesse Lingard returned to the United squad and performed well. The "British Emperor Star" is back!
