Wolves, on Monday night, refused to feel sorry for themselves and fought back, but just not enough: 3-2. And Leicester, looking to consolidate their top-four standing, threw the kitchen sink at West Ham late on, but like Wolves, just couldn&#8217;t find that golden equaliser: 3-2.<\/p>\n<p>The performances were standout across the turf for David Moyes&#8217; men: Bowen deputising with distinction in place of the injured Michail Antonio; Craig Dawson putting his body on the line to keep a lid on Jamie Vardy; Mark Noble marking his 400th Premier League appearance with a typical Mark Noble performance, full of heart, grit steel and determination.<\/p>\n<p>But, it was loanee Lingard who once again stole the show. Under the watchful eye of Gareth Southgate, Lingard firmly staked his claim for a place in the England squad this summer, producing another on-field masterclass to thumb his nose at those who questioned his signing, those who thought he was finished, those who thought he cared more for social media than for the turf.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Jesse Lingard\u2019s game by numbers vs. Leicester: <\/p>\n<p>100% shot accuracy <br \/>100% final third pass accuracy <br \/>43 touches <br \/>3 shots <br \/>3 touches in opp. box <br \/>2 crosses<br \/>2 ball recoveries <br \/>2 interceptions <br \/>2 goals <\/p>\n<p>Superb again. \u2692\ufe0f <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Vbc4nwF8iG\">pic.twitter.com\/Vbc4nwF8iG<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Squawka (@Squawka) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Squawka\/status\/1381263370209345538?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 11, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Once again Lingard was West Ham&#8217;s architect in every sense, the creative release valve and playmaker fulcrum, breaking the deadlock with what can only be described as a goal of world-class quality, and not the luck that some were claiming.<\/p>\n<p>As Vladimir Coufal whipped in a delectable cross, Lingard steadied himself and uncorked a quite unorthodox volley, almost caressing the ball into the near corner; that it was executed in midair and kept its pace only adds to the wonder of the goal, with Kasper Schmeichel rooted to the spot and completely unawares.<\/p>\n<p>It had all the hallmarks of a Dimitri Payet finish, echoes of the balletic maverick in Lingard&#8217;s game with every pirouette, every well-choreographed finish, every graceful turn, dink and volley. But, Lingard is writing his own script, his own East End legacy, transcending past cult heroes.<\/p>\n<p>If you were to compare Lingard&#8217;s impact at West Ham to anyone, though, perhaps a more fitting reference point would be Bruno Fernandes at Manchester United. The Portuguese&#8217;s arrival in January 2020 sparked a sharp upturn in performances for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer&#8217;s men, and he has since cemented his status as irreplaceable in the starting XI, which subsequently pushed Lingard down the pecking order and ultimately led him to the exit doors.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1199582 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-66x65.jpg 66w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-180x180.jpg 180w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-240x240.jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map-270x270.jpg 270w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/en\/2021\/04\/11163646\/1199562_1199562_player_shot-map.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Indeed, since Fernandes made his debut for Man Utd in February 2020, no player has been directly involved in more goals than him\u00a0(24 goals, 18 assists).
