Or they just put him on a pay as you play deal and have played a blinder for a decent squad player.

Moyes:
Have to admit that this made me laugh. I don't even mind the guy but a trial at a Saudi club is quite the drop off.
I imagine he was asking for too much at West Ham or wasn’t upto it in training.
He had some offers according to the media, but probably he was not keen to have a substancial drop of wage.
The whole point of going to Saudi is to land one of these ridiculous £500k+ week contracts. Is he even gonna earn that? Should’ve just stayed at forest
I doubt the trial will be anything to do with his football ability.
It will be to test the conversion rate with his social media followers for his positive Saudi posts.
Someone whisper to him quietly that he's 30 and he's an old feck like the rest of us...
New gen
Physically he could be 30, 40 or 50, but mentally he'll always be a 15 year old.
Really good to see a young English talent prepared to get some experience by playing in a foreign league. Not his biggest fan but hope it goes well for him.
Forest didn't want him.
He’s only ever been interested in the money, don’t let him fool you.
Fake surely?
It's a fan account
That's fantastic from West Ham, well done
He looks about 45, he’s in terrible nick for 30 year old.
It's not the official twitter account
Yeah as if WH would ever have as many as 46k followers
Is anyone really surprised by what has had happened to him. Football become secondary to him a long time ago and the club kept him here far too long. It's beginning to show that we just indulge players far too long at this club.
They don't pay tax so even if he got 150k a week he'd be earning more than he'd get at any club in Europe.
Also Forest gave him a one year deal, they didn't extend it so staying at Forest wasn't ever an option.
Indeed, but even if that wasn't the case outside of two purple patches in 2017 and 2021 he's a bang average player. It's actually quite impressive that he's managed to last in the Premier League until his late 20's. United should have sold him back in 2018 at the latest.
Him and his mate Pogba are just feckless wasters.

I didn't realise he was up on a drunk driving charge as well - no idea why people continue to struggle to have a high opinion of him... 
If I were to think purely of the negative connotations that defines the "modern footballer", I would see his face. Incredibly unlikeable and a source of embarrassment that he played for this club.
I see parallels between him and McTominay, in terms of him being a mediocre homegrown player who was here far longer than he had any right to be. Players who embody the lack of standards at the club
Besides being a useless player and professional annoying twat - how does someone with his money manage to get a drink driving charge?
That's Award winning stupidity right there.

Absolute tosh.
His demands are even too much for the Saudi Pro League apparently
He’s one step away from running the United version of AFTV.
Probably going to try and make it as a 'personality' instead -maybe he and Pog will do a show following the latter's impending (and near-career ending length) ban; do a few musical skits with Sturridge too
Still time for him to sign up to some reality tv shows
Is Big Brother still recruiting?
I don't think he can be fecked with football anymore
I suspect he knows he can't cut it anymore. He's gotten out of shape and lost condition, and all he ever had in the first place really was the 'running around a lot' thing.
I just went onto jlingz.com to order a hoodie and aftershave to treat myself but it's saying "coming soon" and asking for a password?
