Manchester United's Jesse Lingard lists his five key qualities

Jesse Lingard has revealed the qualities that he believes have helped him make the breakthrough into the Manchester United first team this season.

Lingard has had a big impact this season as an attacking midfielder, scoring five goals in 29 appearances for Louis van Gaal's men.

In an interview with the club's Inside United magazine, he lists five qualities he feels have kept him on the right track in his early years at Old Trafford.

"Confidence is the main one," said Lingard. "You've got to be confident, always - on and off the pitch. But not in the arrogant way.

"You've got to be humble and have to keep your feet on the ground - again, on and off the pitch. You must respect the coaches and all the people who work behind closed doors - the chef, the doctor, you've got to respect all the staff.

"You have got to have that spirit of togetherness to win trophies and be determined to win every game and train every day as hard as you can.

"I'm still young, still improving and still learning the game but I've got to practise and train and put that to use when it comes to matches.

"To be starting week in and week out at Manchester United is massive. It comes with a lot of pressure but you've got to cope with that."
