I do know that,.. Lingard is not as bad as some people make out, and given West Ham are only 5 points off us, then it's a risk imo, Moyes for all his faults is no mug, and hasn't taken him if he doesn't think it can improve them somehow, so yes I am worried that this could bite us on the bottom at some potentially.
And £1.5 million + wages, so what, it's just another amount of money that gets swallowed up into the black hole, personally for that I'd rather Lingard trained everyday with us on the off chance we need him, even if he ultimately ends up not playing.
