Proofs in the pudding. People that have been stinking the place out get dropped and we look like a team again. I don't need to know anything, it's clear as daylightLet's be honest... You know feck all. Right?
Exactly. Not getting a sending off might have actually been to his benefit as I don't see many fans applauding him. He is clearly very disliked and it's better he goes away quietly.It’s not like he would have got a good reception. The fans like Cavani but Lingard’s done nothing to endear himself to them for years. The opposite, if anything. I don’t think his send off would have been anything like as positive as his brother would like to think.
These fans applauded mourinho when he lost 0-3 at home. There are no standards.Exactly. Not getting a sending off might have actually been to his benefit as I don't see many fans applauding him. He is clearly very disliked and it's better he goes away quietly.
Shows you how disliked Lingard and Pogba are then.These fans applauded mourinho when he lost 0-3 at home. There are no standards.
He can only have one of two things. Either he can "not mind Scholes saying this" about dressing room internals (as a culmination of public noise he generated all season), or he can expect his manager to give him a nice, gratuitous goodbye at OT from the fans.He wasn't entitled to a send off, but he should really have come on for a few minutes at the end. He's come up through the academy and scored some big goals down the years. It comes across as a bit petty that we denied him that.
As the poster below you said, we subbed on Cavani who has been a fraud the entire season and running away from United to play for his national team while stealing his wages regularly, yet we gave him a final sub appearance at Old Trafford.He's been dogshit for years, he's come on in games all season and jogged around and shown no effort and he's clearly one of the people leaking stories to the media.
He deserved feck all send off.
Wouldn’t surprise me if the journos want to keep good terms with Jesse as he’d likely be a leak for them at a future club.
This is a societal problem it seems. Honours or awards used to be awarded to people. Not many people were around who had so much sugar blown up their arse, that they thought they were entitled to receive an award based upon their own perception.The entitlement is just astounding.
But that‘s exactly my problem with his situation. It also wouldn‘t have hurt him to go on his own lap of honour. Nobody was stopping him from showing his appreciation for years of support. The problem is, he seems to expect everybody else to show him appreciation, without showing any gratitude towards the people who put up with his antics for so many years.Not that I care about the whole thing, but giving him a final sub appearance wouldn't have hurt anyone especially when he is already on the bench.
Rather damming that they would defend him

He’s an absolute manchild with zero self awareness. Hate the fact that he’s been at the club for so many years. Says so much about how poorly run this club has been
The scratch my back, I'll scratch yours of it is so ugly. They're all tweeting the same stuff at the same time. They didn't even coordinate it to spread it out throughout the day.You can tell the journalists that get stories from Lingard's people by the tweets of sympathy.
Lingard did not care about a farewell when he wanted to leave in January or last summer. Now, it is suddenly an issue.
Manchester United does no owe Jesse Lingard anything.
Two reasons. He is English. And he is leaking them stuff. Of course they "love" him.I've never understood this overall love for Lingard from the media. He is a very immature player, that has contributed very little during his time here and quite possibly a source of a lot of unrest within the club. The sooner he is out of the club the better.
Let's not pretend that Ralf likes to keep comments behind closed doors, he's quite consistently displayed verbal diarrhoea himself in his press conferences all season. And let's also not pretend that Lingard is the first player to push for a move away and complain when it didn't happen.He can only have one of two things. Either he can "not mind Scholes saying this" about dressing room internals (as a culmination of public noise he generated all season), or he can expect his manager to give him a nice, gratuitous goodbye at OT from the fans.
Keeping in mind, as well, that he pushed hard to leave in January and moaned about not being able to. He can't have it both ways.
Rangnick might have been ineffective as a coach in his short emergency spell, but he isn't a mug or a walk-over when it comes to dressing room discipline.
Shows how conditioned fans are to managers spouting meaningless bollox when someone giving direct answers to direct questions is accused of verbal diarrhoea.Let's not pretend that Ralf likes to keep comments behind closed doors, he's quite consistently displayed verbal diarrhoea himself in his press conferences all season. And let's also not pretend that Lingard is the first player to push for a move away and complain when it didn't happen.
This. Should have been sold and the money (together with saved wages) reinvested or kept for this summers kitty. Our squad (mis)management has been unbelievably shite.We completely mismanaged him, particularly after his excellent West Ham stint. We should have (properly) re-introduced him to the squad or, and this would've been preferable, sold him for good money. These were the two logical options. We invented a third option which was to not sell him, not play him and watch his value depreciate while he lingered in no mans land and grew in resentment.
Having said that, he is also an absolute man-child with zero self awareness as @Strats so eloquently put it. His behaviour has been shocking and he did not deserve a send-off.
A great loss for media I think. A great insider source for them now gone.
pretty much sums things up.Wouldn’t surprise me if the journos want to keep good terms with Jesse as he’d likely be a leak for them at a future club.
