Manchester United midfielder Jesse Lingard says Cristiano Ronaldo has made a huge impact since his return.

For Lingard says the 36-year-old has brought a new winning mentality to the club that is having a major impact of the rest of the players.

Lingard said: “He's been brilliant. He's brought so much to the team.

“The leadership factor, he wants to win in training, he wants to win in games and he wants to trophies, which is the main thing.

“He's great to be around to watch what he does. You can learn so many things from him.

“He's one of the best players in the world. To have him back home is perfect for us at the moment."

Lingard insists the Portugal ace is far from pretentious when it comes to mucking in with the team.

The wide man added: “He's really humble. He's a positive person.

“To be learning different things off the field as well as on it has been really good. I think he can really help out the team this season."
