Playing for us nearly every match.
I think you're misunderstanding @redcafe_reader here. He's not supporting Lingard, he's actually saying that because Lingard is one of Ole's favorites, Ole will keep on selecting him to the detriment of the team.
This has been said before in this very thread, if he delivered on the pitch people would care less what he does off it.
Yeah that's right. I did say I hope he will be sold in my post, think he's missed it.
Yeah I missed that, sorry. Thought you were suggesting he'll come good if he keeps getting played.
That would be 2 down, 1 to go.
Ah ok, so Jesse Lingard saying beans on Twitter is deeply embarrassing and worth being sold over because he’s average. But Eric Cantona (who I loved btw) Kung Fu kicks a Crystal Palace fan and it Doesn’t?
He deserves the stick he gets? Are you sure?
Because football is all about assists? He does not have 13 career assists too.
When you're a link up player and your career assists at the age of 26 are 14 (Google it if you don't believe me) and you're not scoring goals what exactly are you offering? And no, his movement and running isn't brilliant either.
You've increased it from 13 to 14, and you're still wrong. He offers a few goals too.
Because I just counted them and I missed one but that's still 14 career assists, it's not going to go up because you're in denial about it. Yep, you're right, 17 career goals for United since 2011. Blistering...What are the correct figures then? I'm pretty sure they are poor for goals and assists given the time he has been with us and his age
I think he deserves stick yes, but what you said would be abuse.
Appearances (sub) - Goals
I don't expect Lingard to get goals and assist when playing off the right. When he hit his best form he played as the number 10. It's not a coincidence. He is a good player.
I don't think his skill set fits the RW. That's my point.
IndeedPossibly not, but he is not good enough as a #10 to be a starter at ANY top club in world football.
He was the number 10 when we finished 2nd. His output that season fell off when he was moved deeper to play a more compact 3 man midfield.
Him being shit at football is why he should be sold. And being a nutter is generally more forgivable than being a bellend or a fanny because the latter rarely if ever translates to a winner’s mentality.
Just United fans?
Is this true?
Ah the reason we finished 2nd was Lingard!
14 I believe and 41 career goals.
I never said he was the reason. Clearly though if people actually watched us play they would be able to see the patterns and positional play from the players but they were busy crying about us not attacking enough. As if this team was capable of much more going forward.
Ah, the old #10 argument, Boy have I missed you. That is probably his best position, but he has absolutely no business playing that role at United as he is shite. End of.
Our game plan going forward is non existent that is easy enough for anyone to see.
Except when he did we were getting results. Maybe people should wake up to the actual quality of the squad and realise that Lingard at number 10 is one of our better options. Never said he was world class or that he should start every game, but it is what it is.
False.
Yeah.
It's 14 but yeah, he has 14 career assists, that's including his loan deals and England appearances and he has 17 career goals for Manchester United since 2011.
Absolutely, there is no excuse for that kind of behavior. But as someone already said, he is playing the crowd and now the crowd is on his back.
Tragic.
That’s piss poor. I don’t know how anyone defends him. He’s an attacking player for feck sakes. All this bullshit about his personal life is secondary. He can do whatever the feck he wants he starts producing on the pitch. I’m not holding my breath though.
I agree he isn't good enough to be ManUtd player but these posts are just hilarious. Why since 2011 when he made his debut in 2014 and was injured all season, played his first proper season in 2015?
As I stated above its 14 assists and 41 goals in his career including loans.
