I felt like everybody just passed all the stuff to me and it weighed on my shoulders. It was like, "Here you go Jesse, you deal with this on your own".  "My mum has had some things for years but never really got help. Now she is. So I have been taking care of my brother and sister.  "They are with me. It has been tough to see my loved ones struggling and then I have to come to work and try to do my job."  Lingard was criticised for his form in the early part of the season but has impressed for the Red Devils in recent weeks.   He skippered a young United side for the first time in the Europa League defeat at Astana and has started the last two matches in the Premier League against Tottenham and Manchester City .  Lingard helped United to victories in both those matches, re-establishing himself in the starting XI and contributing to alleviating the pressure on boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
