Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-1 Manchester United: FA Cup, 5 players who were poor for United

#3 Jesse Lingard

Because of his off form, United failed to counter effectively

Lingard was full of running but failed to have any impact on the night. He started on the right forward position and tracked back regularly, but was poor with his choice of passing when going forward. Because of his off form, United failed to counter effectively and it cost them the game.

The Englishman started on the right side of the front three but had the freedom to chose his positions as per the momentum of the game. When Dalot pushed forward, it gave Lingard great opportunity to free himself and put the defence under pressure, however, the English forward failed to capitalise.

United tried changing things around and shuffled their front three as is the norm, but Lingard had a hard time finding his footing. With his ineffectiveness, United lost their tooth in attack and failed to put the Wolves defense under any pressure. He was correctly substituted in the 84th minute, but should have come off a lot earlier.
