Solskjaer's support for hard-working Lingard
Transcript"He’s got his head down and is working hard," says Ole in support of lifelong United fan Jesse Lingard...
Just in terms of one player: Jesse Lingard. He gets spoken about a lot and a lot of it is negative towards him for a variety of reasons. What’s your view of Jesse and what’s your view of his position within your squad? “See, Jesse has had his ups and downs, as I’ve spoken about before. But, let’s say the games against City and Tottenham, they’re examples of how important he can be for us in different games. Of course, we want him back scoring goals and making assists. There’s no one who runs as much as Jesse. He’s a great trigger for us in the pressing. He’s a lively and bubbly character and I don’t think you see as much social media as you used to. He’s got his head down and working hard. I’ve known him for many years and he’s getting back to the Jesse I knew.”
