Lingard revived his career during his time with West Ham and still has an affection for the club.

"They supported me in the loan spell and gave me a great reception, so it was only right to pay them back," Lingard said of the West Ham fans.

"It was a great reception from the West Ham fans. I had a brilliant time here, but I had to do my bit."
