When England manager Gareth Southgate made the decision to cut seven players from his provisional 33-man squad for last summer's rearranged European Championship, few could have been more disappointed and frustrated than Jesse Lingard.
In a bid to get his club career back on track and bolster his chances of representing the Three Lions on home soil at a major tournament, the Manchester United man joined West Ham on loan for the remainder of the season in January.
His temporary stint at the London Stadium was a far greater success than anyone could have possibly wished for.
