So, how many goals for Lingard by season end?

Jesse Lingard is on track to score double digits for West Ham this season.

The Manchester loanee is in terrific form scoring eight goals in nine games for the Hammers and if he continues at the rate of 0.88 goals per game there should be six more in the remaining seven games which could easily see him become the club’s highest goalscorer.

The mere stats present an astonishing picture of the transformative impact the guy has had on the Hammers.

And should he score another half a  dozen before the end of the campaign it will rate as an incredible achievement.

He is already joint highest scorer at the club with Tomas Soucek and 16 goals between them is pretty brilliant stuff for a team with an injury stricken striker.

And one has to give all the credit to David Moyes who was determined to bring the player into the club and who will undoubtedly be the major figure involved should he become a permanent signing.

  1. Like many i sit here thinking imagine we actually had a couple of fit strikers to take the load off the midfielders, it could be frightening.
    I think he’ll get another 4-5, especially if he gets on pens.
    Hopefully all the injuries don’t stop the run.

    • Dave, if we had a couple of fit strikers we probably wouldn’t have gone and got Jesse. Bowen wouldn’t have been put in the middle, so probs wouldn’t have got the goals he has.

  2. To think that Lingard could leave us at United is unimaginable. Regardless of the price if you knew some one was capable and a probable 20 goals per season player. Most would never let him go. If I were Moyes I would walk into the transfer window and buy Lingard, Bailey and Romero. Westies, my second team should then prioritise the premier league to make sure of requalification the following year and add 2 ør 3 players for that tilt at European football. No disrespect but you do not have enough quality players to play in 2 leagues at the same time. I do not want Westies to go into European football and fail in the premier league. Once in European football stay there by premier league qualification. Come on you Irons. If united do not want Dalot i would buy him too! If you did that I think you could challenge for top 4 every year for 5 years.
