5 of the most overrated players still plying their trade in the Premier League

#4 Jesse Lingard

The dab merchant, Lingard has done nothing to justify his £100k-a-week salary

A fan-favourite at Manchester United due to his goals at Wembley in crucial cup ties, it's time now that everyone takes a look and realizes that the baby-faced Jesse Lingard is actually just short of 25 years of age and hasn't yet proven to be the prospect he once looked like he would be.

After spending four seasons away on loan, Lingard had only scored his first goal in United colours in the 2015-16 season, even though he had been in and around the squad from the 2011-12 season.

Lingard is at maximum, a good cup player who can play the occasional match when United require some fresh legs to cover ground and press hard. He is yet to prove his quality in the Premier League apart from spurts of form that he has shown and hasn't taken the umpteen chances he has obtained, purposefully.

He can be a regular starter at a lower mid-table premier league club, and that is what he should rightfully be doing if he is to finally realize the early potential, rather than being a surplus to the requirement, squad player with the once in a blue moon show of flair in a club of the stature of Manchester United.

Lingard deserves credit for his work rate and tenacity, but his lack of end product and lack of creativity in the final third has led to severe criticism, and with no significant improvement over the seasons, it is safe to say that Lingard has reached his peak.
