Jesse Lingard is one of the most-picked players in the Man United starting eleven under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, yet he hasn’t scored a single Premier League goal in a year.
It has been 15 league games so far, but the 27-years-old did not score a goal or even provide an assist.
Yet, he believes goal will come when when United face Newcastle at Old Trafford later today.
“I feel I’ve got my form back now and I’m back to my old self,” he added. “Obviously, form is going to be up and down.
“When you’re in a bad patch you’ve just got to fight through it, listen to the manager and the coaches, work hard on the training pitch and give 110%. I’ve done that and I feel really sharp.”
Jesse Lingard also admits that Manchester United have a completely wrong mentality as they failed to beat mid-table teams in the past few games.
While United have beaten top table like Man City, Leicester and Chelsea, they ended up losing against Crystal Palace, West Ham United, Newcastle United and bottom placed Watford.
“It’s strange, maybe it’s a mindset thing. Maybe it’s our mentality going into the match thinking we’ve already won the game,” Lingard said to Daily Mail.
“If we keep the consistency and mentality we had against City and Tottenham, I don’t see why we can’t win every game. It seems like our mentality changes. When we start with energy and on the front foot, we’ll cause team problems all day long.
“To keep that consistency throughout the rest of the season when we come against the mid-table teams, we need to have the same mentality that we did going into the City and Tottenham game.”
