Lingard, who made the switch from Manchester United on loan last month, showed once again exactly what he is capable of with another eye-catching performance, which followed his unforgettable debut at Villa Park when he scored twice.
Per Sofascore, Lingard managed to get four shots on target, won seven duels and had 61 touches of the ball – the third-highest in his team.
