Is Lingard as good as gone? | Contract extended by one year

I think Southampton, Aston Villa and Crystal Palace would be more suitable move for him than West Ham. Either way, whichever team, wish him good luck.

And Brighton, I agree. Hopefully, some of them will sign him permanently after a good loan spell at West Ham.
 
United have done him a disservice by not letting him leave earlier unless of course he wanted to drag it on for this long. He seems like a decent squad player and if his personal circumstances were different he could have perhaps made a decent contribution. I genuinely feel sorry for him.
 
Was listening to Radio 5 live last night. "Lingard is still young learning his game' He needs to move away to resurrect himself and show everyone what a good player he is. No mention of the fact that he is not good enough and contributes nothing in terms of goals or assists when he plays.

Pat Nevin also mentioned that Moyes should have been given more time at Utd as his performance at West Ham has justified that. Anyone else been listening to this garbage?

That line was actually said?! :wenger:
 
He isn’t going to start West Ham is he? He’s not starting ahead of Bowen on the right nor is he a better number 10 than Lanzini. Effectively, he’ll be going there as utility cover. He’ll get more games than he will for us but I’m not convinced it will be enough to put him in the shop window.

If I were the club, I’d be looking to persuade him to join a bottom half team, where he should start most matches and give himself a chance to find some form. Somewhere like WBA might be a good option.

Lanzini doesn't start nowadays. Fornals plays almost every game as an inside left and he is the most ineffective of the front line. I don't rate Lingard but I actually think he has a good chance to start over Fornals. With West Ham in their best form this could be as good a fit he'll find to restart his career.
 
It was said by Jermain Defoe then Michael Brown corrected him and said he's 28. Strange discussion from the panel they gave off the opinion that Lingard is a very good player
“I was two footing him ten years ago and even then he was 25.”
 
Can people relent on sticking the boot in on Lingard? Seriously, its done with, the lads off. Weird to still see people being annoyed at people being positive about him.

I know. Frankly I'm pleased to see him get a move like this and hopefully it restarts his career for him.
 
What a move extending that contract, keeps up this kind of form we'll get some money for him

It looks good until Ed demands silly money, and offers a longer contract in order to play hard ball...

We had been there... :nervous:
 
Wtf are “manyou“ (thanks for the censorship) thinking gifting Jessi Messi to the good old ‘Ammers, eh?

Didnt they learn from Welbeck? Arse laughing their Bollox off after Welbz scored on his debut.

seen more value in Phil Jones and that Welsh winger who plays golf
 
Just saw his goals, a couple of nice strikes if aided by some shit keeping. I hope he can regain some form, he was always a likeable young lad.

Yes he is.He got far too much hatred on here. Quite depressing seeing as he's one of ours
 
I dont mind Lingard - hope he does well - and we might get £20 million for him if we sell him in the summer - win-win
