Man Utd starlet Chong consulted Lingard before Birmingham loan

Manchester United winger Tahith Chong asked Jesse Lingard for advice before he joined Birmingham City in the summer.

Lingard spent the 2013/14 season at St Andrews and Chong wanted to know more about the club.

"Well, before I left, I spoke to Jesse, just briefly, about it as he's been here as well. Chong told MUTV.

"So I spoke to him and he explained a bit about the club so I already had kind of an idea.

"It's always different when you experience it yourself but I have got to say it has been fantastic for me.

"Jesse just said about the fans - if you work hard on the pitch and all the stuff like that then the fans can help you through games."
