I hope so too, but I also get the impression that any manager coming in would keep him too. LVG and Mourinho both loved him, seems like he’s too ingrained in our setup having grown up through it and being here forever. I can’t imagine any manager coming in to the club immediately wanting to bin him off, so I wouldn’t get your hopes up that a change in manager would see him leave. Ole did at least seem more willing to exclude him though, until he ran out of squad options.

My assumption on what? That he is not seen as the future? On the fact we are linked with a lot of AMs from all over. It's hardly a surprise we are in the market for such a player. Don't have to make too many assumptions that that means Ole doesn't rate Lingard, or Mata or Pereira for the role.
It's getting to Felliani levels of how much I want him out of the club.
Funny enough the team he is trying to recreate could be right belligerent so and so's. Yet he wants a team of bubbly, happy go lucky chaps.
tbh i would rather have MF than this fraud of the player.100kpw for bubbly character.
You guys are crazy 
How exactly?You guys are crazy
With expecting the manager to talk bad about players he still needs and might look too find the best buyer for in the summer or now.
Yes. I do see that.
He has started 9 league games all season, what are you basing your assumptions on?
What reason has he had to hire Mino? Is he hoping to rinse us for a better contract deal or get a big transfer? What team could he possibly move to that would be better than us right now?
You have to question his mindset. How about focus on improving your game.

You think he can improve his game? I think this is the best he can be.
Hiring Mino is a good move. Mino is a clever character and will get him a decent move.
He could talk him up as much he'd want, Lingard's value is what it is. No one is getting fooled by us
Maybe Mino reached out to him? Lingaard seems to be a popular guy among the English players, doesn't he? Think of all the youngsters with long careers ahead of them who he can influence and tell about his agent.
TL;DR: Ole: "He runs, I fecking love runners"
Can United stop rewarding mediocrity? How the feck does it benefit us long or short term in anyway?
Lingard is not in DDG and Rooney's level ffs. At best he's a good squad player and be easily replaced.
Incredible, isn't it? New contract incoming, hopefully we sack him before another disaster.
I feel better now knowing that Jessie is cutting down on her social media activity. Deserves the number 10 role
The fact that Lingard is so valued despite his lack of abilities just shows that a lot of our players have the wrong attitude. As a manager it must be painful to let a homegrown, hard-working player go when the other options only are marginally better.
Make no mistake, though: under normal circumstances Lingard would be out the door by now.

Bubbly character? How the feck does that help you become a better footballer? All that's missing now is one of Brendan's quips. "Jesse is a terrific human being".
You can’t make this shit up.
I don't really have a problem with him saying this. He needs to protect his player when questioned by the media. However, if his team selections (in the future) reflect his belief in Lingard, than Ole is clueless.
To be fair Klopp loves players, who are (football-)intelligent and have a high work rate, a lot as well. I don't think these Solskjaer quotes are as bizarre as they might seem to some.
Fellaini was Pele next to Lingard
Which club would actually buy a player with zero goals and zero assists in 18 or so games? Their fans would be unhappy straight from the start you would imagine so would take a brave or desperate club.
I think he has to believe in Jesse as if Jesse can turn into a top number 10 worthy of Manchester United, then anything can happen, like Ole being good enough to manage Manchester United.
This has already happened several times, Ole doesn't need to display more of this to show he is indeed clueless.
Yeah I strongly believe this to be true (lingard being crap) and Ole being awful. Still, I can't pretend to care about this quote to the media unless accompanied by a further display of cluelessness. It's technically possible that he says this and he doesn't play Lingard even if it's more probable that he does believe what he said. I'd rather just call out Ole on what he's done, rather than this quote.
This is the problem. We've been down this alley with Rooney where we were expected him to become this world beater again when it was fairly obvious he was fecking finished and no longer good enough. Jesse has had enough chances. Ole proved his delusion by starting him against fecking Arsenal. He's been dreadful for well over a year.
Lets hope Riola has got him and is looking to move him on.
Key word of your sentence. Bubbly character or toning down of social media activity is not going to make up for that. So yes, it is an utterly bizarre statement when it made regarding a player like Jesse Lingard.
This will be Raiola's first real test.
"You don't see as much social media from Jesse as you used to."
O brave new world
O brave new world
Nobody is disagreeing with this. You should reread what I said. It's basically me saying what's the point in getting angry over a quote that really says nothing on its own. Ole can be judged on his actions. It's far more likely that Ole does believe in Lingard than the opposite, but that doesn't mean I'm going to get angry on a quote that can technically still be proven false. I'm not going to waste my time on meaningless talks with the media. No matter his beliefs, he's not going to call Jesse crap to the media.
I would rather just crap on Ole when it comes to his belief in Jesse by actual tangible evidence, team selections in the past.
I took "is a great trigger in the pressing" to be a praise of Lingaard's understanding of the game.
Critcizing the quote is just what it is, nothing seriously important. Just a bit of fun, like you said actions speak louder and we know Ole like Lingard
Shut up, Ole!
I'd keep Lingard at the club as a low cost squad option.
If he's not happy with that then let him go with our blessing. No hate from me at all.

He should start 0 matches, and yes the times he missed either he was sick/injured or he miss a one game after he play a shit game and come back the match after. Why the feck he is even at the club? he is a fecking disgrace with his 0 goals and 0 assists.
He needs Lingard to do what exactly? Score goals or assist goals? he does neither of these.
Felliani was actually useful compared to lingard.
