Man down

 

[Stringer]

Anonymous performance from a nothing player. Can't really blame him.

 

[CM]

Haven't seen him since about the 10th minute

 

[ZDwyr]

Looked nervous when he had the ball. Showed his usual determination defensively at times though.

Disappointing to see a player letting nerves hold you down for 45 mins. He should be told off at half time just as distraction from the game to straighten his mind.

 

[Adisa]

What happens when you promote someone beyond their stalls. For our sake I hope he improves this half.

 

[Borys]

He's doing nothing, would be better if he switched with Martial. Seems to be more effective in the left.

 

[JoaquinJoaquin]

Said from the start he isn't ever going to be top class and stick by it. Very average player.

 

[Ish]

Looks like a boy amongst men out there. Let's hope he pops up with a moment to get us something from the game.

 

[Cina]

One of the worst players I've seen in a Utd shirt.

 

[Robbie Boy]

He's so highly rated by some on here, I just don't get it. He's painfully average. Guess he gets the whole 'being from the academy special dispensation'.

 

[m1y2]

first really bad game, rooney had 20 out of 25 and is still here so calm down some of you. I guess we should drop Lingard for Andy Pereira for a while

 

[Devil may care]

Poor game from him today, I thought he'd excel in a derby tempo but couldn't get off the fringe.

 

[Cutch]

Abysmal today. Constantly bullied off the ball and couldn't even do the basics right

 

[Robbie Boy]

He had a shocker today. Not good enough. It's that simple.

 

[Cheesy]

Aye, he was dreadful. Lacked any power when going for challenges, created nothing, and looked out of his depth.

He's shown glimpses here and there, but I think a lot of the hope for him simply comes from the fact that he's a youth prospect. I'd understand if he was 19, but he's now 23 and has still shown little to indicate he's going to be anywhere near good enough.

 

[WyoManU]

I always try and support the youth players, but I just don't think he has what it takes to play at the highest level.

 

[thejtrain]

He's a nothing player and this game doesn't change that one bit.

 

[kundalini]

Until this match, we've looked better with Lingard on the pitch, even when he hasn't performed that well. Today Lingard was awful and so were we.

 

[Silverman]

Not impressed by him so far sadly. His position is such an important one for United. Can see us signing a top RW in the summer and pushing him down the pecking order.

 

[Sied]

Ridiculous that people are ruling him out after this game. Very difficult game to get involved in as a forward player in those first 60 odd minutes. Rooney and Martial struggled too, but I'm sure we're not ruling them out. He could potentially do with a rest though. I think I'd start Mata against Southampton and replace him with Lingard after 60mins.

 

[Zoo]

Needs to eradicate the casualness, it creeps into both his shooting and passing. Today he underhit a pass to Young in a promising position going forward and did so again later to one of our defenders, almost putting us in trouble. The rest of his game isn't up to much so he needs to sort it out if he wants to play regularly.

 

[SATA]

He played like he thought he made it. Why couldn't Andreas get a chance if Lingard got his?

 

[Adisa]

I don't know how to describe it. I just have that feeling pereira can be a top tier player but I'm sorry to say, I don't get that feeling with this guy. He can be a useful player for us though.

 

[Acole9]

He never really got into the game today. Played a couple of bad passes but didn't really do much else.

 

[Rossa]

Would always struggle against Moreno who runs just as much as Lingard does and is much faster. Lingard simply went out of things to try, and when he did try the attempts were poor.

 

[hubbuh]

Was rubbish. Thought Memphis was equally bad if not worse when he came on. Can someone please talk me through what they see in him? I genuinely struggle to see a footballer. He's so slow to the release the ball it's agonising to watch. When you compare how he plays compares to Martial you can just see the latter is always alive and switched on. Memphis just gets caught out so often.

 

[Eddy_JukeZ]

He's just not that good.

I don't know what people see in him.

 

[Robbie Boy]

He's just not that good.

I don't know what people see in him.

He's from the academy. That's literally it. He has struggled to get into Championship teams or stand out in that league during several loan spells.

 

[AttackingFlair]

Lacks experience, I wouldn't write him off over this game, no one looked good.

 

[Cathy Ferguson]

Yep, both Lingard and Memphis were poor today. I doubt that they will ever be good enough to start games for us, if we want to compete for titles that is. Our wingers are really really poor.

 

[Paul the Wolf]

He was poor against Newcastle and worse today. Seems very weak physically and gets easily shoved off the ball - he's 23 now and don't think he will make the top level

 

[Moonred]

Needs a rest out of the team before maybe a loan in the summer. I find it ridiculous that some people think he is an intelligent player.

 

[Cerpin]

Out of his depth today.

 

[amolbhatia50k]

Out of his depth today.

Aptly put. He didn't look like he belonged, today, sadly. It's all well and good at home when he's got space to run at defenders, but we should rethink starting in games where the pitch is congested, because he simply couldn't handle the lack of space today.

 

[Escobar]

He's not a youngster who should get game time. He won't make it here

 

[Yorkeontop]

Jesse will be a decent to good squad player for us eventually.

 

[Di Maria's angel]

I've been defending him a bit, however, he doesn't really justify much of a defense. Given he's relatively young, I'd be willing to give him a bit more time. But decent squad player is probably the best he'll be.

 

[Adisa]

Januzaj is three years younger than him and has taken far more stick than Lingard. Just goes to show how much time Januzaj has.

 

[Classical Mechanic]

Too weak to handle any type of pressing at this level. It really is hindrance for him.
