He did play minutes for United first team and wasn't very good, I remember it well. Saf didn't think he earned a start that day and I say fair enough

So Lingard still couldn't score 
Any news on his contract situation?
I would say he must be renewing his contract because MUTV would look pretty stupid putting articles up like this if he is quitting the club;

They did another article a few weeks ago about how excited Gomes is to play etc and then he didn't play the next game which was an easy cup fixture. Wouldn't read too much into it.
Doubt the know anything.
Howson mentioned that he has heard that Gomes is signing the contract. But he doesn't get any look in. Not even on the bench
Yeah I saw that too. I've found Howson to be generally alright with that kind of stuff but I haven't heard anything for anywhere else to back up his claim. We'll have to wait and see I guess
Hard to get excited about a new contract (or get down about him leaving) given how little we've seen of him this season
Really hope this is right
Despite what others say I don't think you're wrong there. Definitely shows intent to sign him and he must want to sign himself, is it just over promises over playing time that he isn't signing?
Also don’t understand how Chong gets more minutes than Gomes. Chong’s camp have made more noise about leaving than Gomes’ have. Also what makes it more silly is that he hasn’t looked anything great in the games he has played in to merit a new deal.
Chong looks pretty pants tbf. I am all about promoting youth however you have to show something with the opportunities provided.... other than running around a lot and looking like bambi on ice.
Gomes looks to have pretty good technical ability and I hope they let him and Fernandes practice together with Greenwood. I know its very early days but I see Fernandes being a mentor to these younger players with his attitude and style of play. If they can click with hin on the training paddock then its an indicator that they can start some games. If not then the opposite applies.
Very weird the whole situation. Hope he stays, i rate him highly.
Great news if true. Think he's a brilliant youngster, and probably just being protected due to his size, but really hope he stays. If so, he should learn from Bruno and just be his backup next season. Far more talented than either of Pereira or Lingard.
I would say the reason why he gets more game time is purely because of where he plays. He gets brought on as a winger to use his pace, get past the fullback and get in service to the box as that is his strength.
He does seem to struggle to do it at this level though.
Would love it to true, but will wait for official confirmation before believing. If he did sign, it may be that Ole has informed him that Lingard and Pereira will be sold, and that he will become back up to Bruno in that attacking/creative midfield role. We have Garner, Levitt, possibly TFM for that deeper midfield role, but not much else for the Bruno role. Just a thought really.
How do you know
I guess Twitter. Plenty of chat on there this evening
Cheers for posting this. Brought back some memories as I was at OT for his debut.
I can see him to replace Pereira in the squad next season
I can see him signing a new contract and then be lent out next season. Especially if we sign Grealish or Madison.
Rumours of a new deal till 2025, any truth to this?
Seems confirmed , yes - until 2023
Agreed. Needs to improve his all round game though. Still undoubtedly talented player
That is a fake picture, from a few years ago. Nothing is official yetSeems confirmed , yes - until 2023
He should stay. Mata, Lingard and Pereira will all move on over the next season or two. Plenty room for him.
Absolutely. Only 19 years old, plenty of time for him.
Huge news if true. Has so much talent, I'd be gutted to see him leave.
Nice assist as well.And.......... still waiting.....
Edit nice goal
Well this is just plain rude

Aahh its gonna suck seeing him be a beast for another team. Like what happened with pogba.
And where did you get this gem of information that he’s leaving? Thread is full of exactly the same post over and over again. Why bother?
No one has a clue do they,
Mark Goldbridge has made a living out of this garbage
Tbf. those two looked pretty good in the academy too.
Lingard has only started looking bad since the World Cup to be fair, It is a mystery to me why he suddenly ended up looking so crap.
Same with DDG, Matic and I'm sure plenty more, think it have to do with not getting a rest, picking up injuries and so it goes...
City players looked bad at the World Cup and back to good after it...
Not as good as Gomes. Gomes dominated the u23 at age 18 (last season). Pereira didn't until his age ~19 season. You can catch my criticisms of Pereira in my earlier posts for failing to impress the way he should. Did brilliant shortly after those complaints, but was a tad bit older than Gomes when he dominated.
