Lingard, the late developer finally flourishing at United
LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — For all the recent talk about the money Jose Mourinho has — or hasn't — spent at Manchester United, his best player at the moment might be one who cost the club nothing.
United prides itself on the blossoming of its youth-team graduates and Jesse Lingard is the latest to flourish on the big stage.
Lingard scored his seventh goal in his last nine Premier League games to wrap up United's 2-0 win at Everton on Monday, which ended the team's run of three draws that might have fully knocked it out of title contention.
