I am actually puzzled how it took so long for people to realize how shit and useless this guy is. Even back to that season when he had the purple patch he was absolutely shit for the remainder of the season.
I'm not saying that you cannot be mentally 12 years old though.There's nowt wrong with having a bubbly personality, give me that over a Victor Meldrew every single day of the week.
People love to be romantic, so they twist reality until it fits their agenda. If he were not homegrown, not half of his fanboys would support him. Lingard is a player that needs to be sold - both for football and personality reasonsI am actually puzzled how it took so long for people to realize how shit and useless this guy is.

They do it for every game now mate. BT in general has a really cringeworthy approach to marketing compared to other channels.Has anyone seen that ESPN or BT Sport advert for Bournemouth vs. United. I felt like throwing up a bit in my mouth. To summarise, the entire advert is cringeworthy as hell - they kind of flit between showing players from both teams being cringeworthy for the camera doing shit like "COME ON!!" and clenching their fists etc. At one point, McTominay says something like "nah, maybe Jesse would say that" or similar and the camera pans to Lingard who smirks, and goes "yeah, we got swag".
Swag?

And how much time have you spent in his company to come to the conclusion he's mentally aged 12?I'm not saying that you cannot be mentally 12 years old though.
Who said he's mentally 12?And how much time have you spent in his company to come to the conclusion he's mentally aged 12?

Try re-reading the statement that you quoted I guess.there's absolutely nothing in his personality to like unless you're mentally 12 years old.
Don't need to, by definition you're implying Lingard has a mental age of 12Try re-reading the statement that you quoted I guess.
Nope, I'm implying that his character is appealing to people who are mentally 12.Don't need to, by definition you're implying Lingard has a mental age of 12

Before I knew any better, I would say that claiming such a thing about someone you´ve never met, proves mentality of a 12 years old. And I was probably right.Tough shit, guess we'll never find out then.
He's a cnut by the way, there's absolutely nothing in his personality to like unless you're mentally 12 years old.
Come on, that's one of the reasons you become a footballer for is to get women that are good for you. Besides who else would model/tv presenter women date?I dislike him for cheating on Jena Frumes, who is a goddess and was far too good for him.
Wait, what? You're kidding me, right?I dislike him for cheating on Jena Frumes, who is a goddess and was far too good for him.
When you look like an orc from middle earth then it’s not really the same.Come on, that's one of the reasons you become a footballer for is to get women that are good for you. Besides who else would model/tv presenter women date?
No the resentment is he has been absolute trash for 18 months and yet acts like a superstar.Come on, that's one of the reasons you become a footballer for is to get women that are good for you. Besides who else would model/tv presenter women date?
Back to the point, Lingard is a decent player, all the hate is partial resentment at his generation of players.
The whole of Manchester Utd has been trash for 18 months, the fact people like you know how he acts of the field kind of means he is a 'superstar'.No the resentment is he has been absolute trash for 18 months and yet acts like a superstar.
My thoughts exactly. Hate is a strong word, but we can all see what he does on tbe pitch and he simply isnt performing to a level that will take United to where they want to be. Its that simple. I dont think he would have been given this amount of time under Fergie.Don’t hate him. Don’t hate any United player. He’s just not good enough. Hasn’t contributed anything at all for a long time now
Ohhh I just googled her I see your point, jheeeez!I dislike him for cheating on Jena Frumes, who is a goddess and was far too good for him.
HAHA now that's swag! Aiiiiiiiiiight
We are a billion dollar club that brings in more than 600m in revenue, shirt sales actually constitute very little of that, so I seriously doubt it.I believe that Jesse is a rather nice bloke. Someone who is loved by his family and got a lot of friends, often doing the right thing etc.
However, there are a lot of people who cannot stand the generation of digital Twitter celebrities, influencers, bloggers, YouTubers etc. and do not understand how such persons without obvious talent are able to get the status of a B or C class celebrity,
Somehow Jesse seems to fall into this category and as his performances on the pitch do not justify him being a player of Manchester United football club it comes across as if he is somehow kept because of his followers and social value.
Supporters get angry because he is not only a synonym for the modern age of half-talented people somehow making a career but it is also obvious that as long as we got players that are just not good enough we will never be able to challenge again for the big titles.
I would not be surprised if the Glazers had their say in this as he has such a high marketing value.
Any official statistics how many shirts with his name have been sold compared to others?
Isn't this just a rumour?I dislike him for cheating on Jena Frumes, who is a goddess and was far too good for him.
Alright so you the pedantic type? Don't worry I won't bother replying.The whole of Manchester Utd has been trash for 18 months, the fact people like you know how he acts of the field kind of means he is a 'superstar'.
Jesse is currently knocking it out of the park. Think of the mediocrity that has been allowed to overstay at the club over the last 10 years, he will be no differentWe are a billion dollar club that brings in more than 600m in revenue, shirt sales actually constitute very little of that, so I seriously doubt it.
Lingard is popular on social media but he is not Ronaldo or Beckham-esque popular to even talk about marketability. Generally it is hard for footballers to maintain their fame if it don't match with their on-pitch performances. Can't remember any footballers who kept their fame despite being shite on the pitch.
I mean he didn't score directly from the corner though.... Not sure how that one counts as a "plus" for Pereira.....It was his cross into the box that McTominay scored from against Norwich.
