You are kidding right?People expect too much consistency from 23 year olds.

He’s 26People expect too much consistency from 23 year olds.
Fair enough. I've liked him in the past but when he's performing inconsistently, ineffective more often that not if we're honest, with very few goals and assists at the age of 26 he's very hard to defend. I think it's undeniable that if he'd joined the club a few years ago for a fee he'd be getting hammered more or less universally.Id that's the case then i take it back.
But my point still stands for those who are in this love affair with local lad shite
So what’s Lingard in there for? He’s the oldest and most experienced out of the three.Completely agree. It's more Rashford and Martial that are the problem. They are the ones who are supposed to be the threat in attack.
And Lingard isn't? He's a starting attacker for one of the biggest clubs in the world ffs.Completely agree. It's more Rashford and Martial that are the problem. They are the ones who are supposed to be the threat in attack.
I suppose the trouble with him is that at times, key times too, he does bring it up a notch and scores a good goal. He doesn't do it at all consistently, and when he's not right on it (most of the time) his weaknesses are manifold and easily exploitable.Working hard only gets you so far. Always that niggling question does he have it on him to bring it up a notch - don’t think so.

People are too raw for this kind of trolling today boysHe's inconsistent but what 21 year old isn't.
This is just knee-jerk and frankly embarrassing. Martial has gone seriously off the boil since Jose left but what are you actually expecting from Rashford? They're two players we shouldn't be looking to replace.So what’s Lingard in there for? He’s the oldest and most experienced out of the three.
In my opinion all three are just garbage and we should sign two attackers in the summer with one of Martial or Rashford starting.
BingoHe’s our Walcott.
A purple patch here and there will always be enough to just about get him a new contract and be looked at favourably by a section of supporters. Then the inevitable slump comes and cycle restarts.
He’ll be here till he’s 30.
Knee jerk?I still think he's worth keeping as a squad option.. but he's having a truly awful season.

With a quality RW signing and perhaps two midfielders who supply better service, I think they'd be a hell of a lot more consistent.
That’s it. Any player can have a moment of brilliance - it’s playing to a high level consistently is the hard part.I suppose the trouble with him is that at times, key times too, he does bring it up a notch and scores a good goal.

People keep saying Everton or West Ham. But they have Richarlison and Anderson as wingers. Would he even start ahead of them? Nope. That’s how low it is when we got players starting for us who wouldn’t get in mid table teams. Even Watford have Deulofeu who is better.Glad to see so many people seeing Lingard for what he is - An underwhelming footballer with no outstanding aspects of his game in any department. For me, he is the very embodiment of today's Manchester United. Not good enough, cocky, a bit of a laughing stock to other fans and thinks he's better than he is.
I don't even really rate him as a squad player, as I've said previously he'd be perfect for a club like Everton or West Ham, for example. I don't think he's even at the level of squad player a club like United should be looking at. He wouldn't get anywhere near any of the other top 6 squads.

Again with the back up. Look at his stats when he is starting they rubbish, imagine how they will be when he’s a squad player. I rather give that role to someone in the youth team.He seems to be off it at the moment. At worst he was always making runs pulling the opposition defenders around but he's been poor lately and doesn't even seem to be making the same runs.
He's a good squad option to have but he shouldn't be starting 30+ games a season for us, we should be a quality right sided player and Lingard should be backup.
He's fecking 26! I've been a supporter of his but its going too far now! people in here don't even know his actual age its laughable! I've been very patient with him, but then when I look at our starters from past glories and where they were at 26! Its embarrassing the performances we have to put up with these days!He's inconsistent but what 21 year old isn't.
Aye, and as a fan of his it's been tough to come around to that fact. I'll always love that Chelsea game in April '17 where he joined Rashford up front in a 3-5-2 and obliterated them between the lines, that was him being instrumental in taking a good team to task. We have to accept that kind of performance hasn't happened anywhere near enough and at his age he should be offering far more on a consistent basis to justify his starting place.That’s it. Any player can have a moment of brilliance - it’s playing to a high level consistently is the hard part.
27 this year actuallyHe's fecking 26! I've been a supporter of his but its going too far now! people in here don't even know his actual age its laughable!

Ffs, give him a chance he's young and local. What more do you want from a 21 year old kid? Also he scored in two finals against the world class Palace and Southampton.
Well he's still currently 26 so I wasn't wrong! But look at where our best attackers were at the age of 26! light years ahead of anyone in this team! I genuinely feel like putting 11 United fans on the pitch would be better sometimes than watching these lot.They genuinely don't love/understand the badge they're wearing.27 this year actually
Yes, knee-jerk.Knee jerk?
Martial and Rashford are streaky players, who are not good enough for a team that want to win the title. The stats show it, I guess they knee jerk too.
Midfielders who provide better service so Rashford could miss more. Rashfords never been a clinical finisher, we can have Beckham and Scholes in their prime around him and he’d still miss for fun. He still doesn’t even know how to head the ball.
Martial doesn’t know how to run without the ball. I guess that’s the knee jerk in me too. Every other top attacker can do it but he stands still expecting ball to feet when his dribbling is inconsistent.
Also Lingard as squad option? He offers feck all vs West Ham at home and wouldn’t even get in their team. They have better wingers than us.
Basically describes Martial too.He’s our Walcott.

Only it doesnt, because if you look at his season as a whole he's produced fairly good numbers. Exactly what Lingard hasntBasically describes Martial too.
Disagree. Lingard normally has exceptional off-ball movement and spots as well as creates space in the attacking third. This is a rare skill and is lacking in literally every other player in our squad, including Pogba. The issue with Jesse right now is one that's also caused by formation. Jesse would work best as a 10. He's not the fastest in terms of speed and doesn't have good crossing ability. But he's quick with his feet and has good intelligence in terms of making and spotting spaces. No surprises that his best showings came in the middle of a 3 in the 4-2-3-1, which, sadly (owing to Pogba being more important and whose form is even more wedded to formation) has been dumped for a 4-3-3 / 3-5-2.Glad to see so many people seeing Lingard for what he is - An underwhelming footballer with no outstanding aspects of his game in any department.

So what’s Lingard in there for? He’s the oldest and most experienced out of the three.

I think he's the type of player that would be very useful if he had proper attackers to work with. That's not something I could say for Martial and Rashford at the moment. I think they would most likely just be in the way of a functioning attack. Lingard links up play, has great movement, presses well. I'm not sure if he's a starter but definitely a good squad player to have.And Lingard isn't? He's a starting attacker for one of the biggest clubs in the world ffs.
