Lingard: I owe West Ham teammates for England recall

Jesse Lingard says he owes his West Ham teammates for his England recall.

The midfielder has played his way back into the England squad after his January loan move from Manchester United.

“It’s brilliant, and it’s about getting minutes and getting regular football and trying to do the best I can,” he told West Ham TV.

“The team has helped me tremendously and I can’t thank the players and staff for welcoming me enough and it’s time to crack on now.”

He added: “We know how far we’ve come already, the team have been brilliant and, as long as we stick together as a team, we can go far this season.”
