With Apologies to Jesse for criticizing his new deal and 75,000 pound wage.
Lingard is one of them players who we will just hate, just cause. The opinion has set in stone, but he's actually killing it at the moment. Fair credit to the lad.
Wonder what he'd be like playing off the right.
Fergie said:“Jesse Lingard is going to be some player,”
“He is 19, came through our youth system and is built like Jean Tigana was for France.
“But he never got into the limelight there until he was about 24, and I think that will be the same with Lingard.
“He will become a player when he’s 22 or so. As an attacking midfielder he has got a really good talent. I think he will be a player we have high hopes for, definitely.”
Ferguson.
Guy said Scholes would never make it either.
Nah, I'm glad for Jesse. Hopefully he can become a world beater.
He also signed a homeless guy for 8 million quid.
I think its a little nudge to shaw, Rashford and other reserves who want to make it here. Lingard has actually done it the Fletcher way, getting abused and what not and finally coming good. I hope this is permanent for him and nit just a purple patch, he may have dip in form but i hope he becomes consistent like has been for a month or so.
He's never going to be a world class player but he's got plenty to offer to this team.
He never scores a boring goal thats for sure.
Completely forgot about that.
I've now decided I don't like him again.
That has been the case for months now.Our best goal of the season so far. It was an absolute beauty. Can't believe there would come a day when I'm saying this: this season, he performs better than Mata and Mkhi .
What do you mean, compared to who exactly? He’s already out performing most in England and scoring goals that the likes of Coutinho would be proud off. What more does he have to do to show that he’s a proper footballer, not some kind of Alan smith type?Glad he's playing well, he seems to have found his niche. He will never have the ability of the very best but he's got the workrate to make up for it, he can be that player who chases everything down and gets involved in everything we do. Hope he continues this good form.

Well you said that he didn’t have the ability to be the very best so it’s ok to ask in comparison to who? You’re kind of changing your story now by saying he doesn’t have as much technical ability as martial. Fine but you could say the same about 95% of the players in the league.Well compared to players like Martial for one. Don't get me wrong he's a very good player or he'd not be doing what he is doing but I don't think it's anything controversial to say there are more naturally gifted players than him in the squad. It doesn't mean he can't be a good player for us.
Exactly and Ali is the so called golden boyWell I guess it depends on what he means by “the very best”. He’s not far off Alli’s levels of last year atm in any case.

You’re not the first to insinuate that Lingard is not technical or has limited skills. It irks me that yous can’t quite get rid of your prejudices towards him and open your eyes fully
