| Jesse Lingard says he's determined to get more first-team game time |
JESSE LINGARD has revealed his 'main aim' is to play more first-team football for Manchester United.
The England U21 international was handed a start in Louis van Gaal's first game in charge against Swansea last year, but picked up a knock in the game.
However, after playing 45 minutes in the 3-0 win over Everton yesterday, the attacking midfielder has admitted he's determined to play more.
"That is my main aim and I have always wanted to play for Man United," he said .
"To get 45 minutes won't do me any harm for the next game.

"Obviously I wasn't sure if I would be involved because I was on the bench but for them to see me on the pitch was a massive honour."
The 22-year-old is contracted to United until 2018, and has made two Premier League appearances for the club.
He's had four Championship loan spells since rising though the United youth ranks in 2012, playing for Leicester, Birmingham, Brighton and Derby.
