5th goal in his 7th league game
Lingard to join West Ham on loan
- Thread starter VeevaVee
- Start date
20m is now realistic
He has been superb since joining West Ham.
Plus he’s scoring goals against Arsenal. Doing God’s work.
He was this good for us as shown by his seasons under Jose and Van Gaal.
Good player.
Good player.
More goals in the league than Martial. 
I.. Think I want him back?
crazy what a change of scenery and some confidence can do. Extremely happy for him.
We should sell while he has value.
Swap with Rice would be something to really consider imo

Has Lingard ever had such a good goalscoring form with us? He did score vital goals for like a period of 6 months to 1 season but that was it.
Great for him. We'll get a lot of money in the summer and he'll be happy at a club where he's loved. Win-win.
There was never any reason why he had to be so completely axed from the squad in the way that he was. He has always had this in his locker.
Looking like 2018 Messi again. Very happy for him after a tough few years.
That is likely because he's a 10 who has been played on the wings form most of his United career. When played as a 10 he delivered and did the same for England.
Messe Lingod.
He was axed because he was completely shite for ages. That was a good enough reason at the time
He's now outscored Martial.
We should have sent the Frenchman out on loan instead.

He’s Moyes’ Tim Cahill. Perhaps he has found his level. Very happy for him.
In what world is that a like for like swap? They’ve valued Rice at £100m minimum, Rice is 6 years younger.
Best player on the pitch.
Happy that he has his confidence back, the dilemma now is if ole decides to keep him I think he may have to be a first teamer to get the best out of him as seen with west ham.
Have to say a front 3 of - Lingard-cavani-James would be a nightmare for defenders in terms of pressing from the front.

Assuming somebody would want him.
Not in doubt anymore, he's the best player in Europe
A player capable of repeated bursts of this sort of form is a good player. In Jesse's case, there are clear reasons why his form was sporadic. Firstly and most importantly being sporadically played in his preferred position. Secondly, he is clearly a confidence player and was robbed of that by his manager throwing him to the wolves when he needed an arm around the shoulder.
His movement is so good and at last he looks like he is enjoying football again.
He will not produce the same here at United, let him go now that he’s upped his value, we do not need him either
Let's not rewrite history. He was one of our worst players for the last 2 whole years. Good to see him back in form.
I would have had no complaints with him playing a role from the bench. But to be axed completely from the squad even after looking decent when given the odd chance was strange.
If he plays like that until the end of the season, isn't it fair to say he would be a starter for us as well? Or is it more that we don't have the position for him as we have Bruno playing in the 10?
Yeah, he is just buzzing around, taking on players, beating them for fun and linking up so well. His energy, movement, link up is all very good.
This is a weird one. Its easy to look from the outside and see how Ole froze him out, but as a United fan, we did witness Ole giving him lots of chances. He had some problems off the field though, so this slump was way worse than his previous ones.
Unproductive, yes but not useless. Jesse is not a world-beater and we required him to be so his lack of productivity looked terrible. There were games where he could have played and he certainly was always a better bench option than Dan James.
Because he was utterly garbage for us...
Ya ridiculous altogether it should be a straight Lingard - Grealish swop
His horrendous form over a prolonged period of time was more than enough reason. This is without his semi-regular arseholery off the field, too.
Lingard is doing well at West Ham because he’s a fairly good player, full of confidence.
We take the money and run this summer. It suits all parties.
Not a like for like swap, Messe + cash for Rice
No he didn't, he played as a no.10 the half season before we signed Bruno, he got plenty of minutes under his belt in that position and he looked like a league 2 player there for us. He's decent when he plays for a side where the opposition don't put 10 men behind the ball. A team like West Ham is perfect for him.
Was hoping for about £20m but that's becoming a bargain for West Ham the way he's currently playing. Dribbling, passing, shooting well.
No doubt we will recall him after his loan spell and offer a lucrative contract...
