Take advantage of a loan thats worked out brilliantly, for all parties involved, and sell him while he's got some value, if we can get 25/30 million off someone, bite there hand off.
Lingard to join West Ham on loan

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
I disagree that Lingard's form is because he is playing for a 'lesser' team where he gets more space. I think it is more that he has less distractions in London than in Manchester and is concentrating more on his football.
Right now Fernandes needs a rest. Our players have played so many games with little respite. Rashford is playing while not 100pc, Martial is out for the rest of the season so right now Lingard playing as he is gets in our side. When we have to rely on Daniel James, then to me he plays. It is transparently obvious that Lingard is way ahead of James. And he can play wide.
My issue with him is off field distractions. But if he can get his head down, i would have him back. We wont get good value from selling.

£30m for an England international is not good value. Fred... that's FRED... cost us nearly double that.
What kind of distractions do you mean, mate. If I were a multi-millionaire footballer susceptible to distraction to an extent that it affects my performances during matchdays, I would be distracted as easily (if not more) in London as if I were to be in Manchester.
He’s also better than lingard and wasn’t signed during a global pandemic
Insert photo of gazza to highlight your point more
Stupid logic, just because we overpayed for fred dosnt mean thats the benchmark for all transfers
Also...I wonder if anythings happened in the world, since we signed Fred, thats changed the financial landscape???
I'm sold...Keep him
Incredible goal, he’s literally driving West Ham towards the CL singlehandedly. He’s worth £30 million to them all day long especially with his experience at the very highest level.
GOAT
That’s a sensational goal. Absolutely brilliant technique, thought he scuffed it at first but he’s picked it out perfectly.
That's some goal.....
Stop it Jesse!
more than 30 million now surely?
Ballon d'Or please
Seeing Lingard having the time of his life has been one of the highlights of this season for me.
Just give him the Ballon d'Or now, it's a fecking joke
He's genuinely taken West Ham up a level, it's crazy. Conflicted as to what we do with him at the end of the season but it's great to see him playing with confidence again.
Yeah, it's brilliant
Market was completely different pre-COVID, we aren't getting 90m for Pogs
You can't get a lot of money from someone who has only 1 year on his contract. If that was the case RVP would have cost 40mil minimum
This is like chucking your girlfriend because deep down you’re pretty sure you can do better. A few barren months go by, you start to think you may have made a mistake but you’re pretty sure your luck will turn soon.
6 months later you have a chance encounter with her at Rev’s. She’s lost 50lbs, got some nice new clothes and a fancy new haircut. You can only watch on in horror as streams of better looking dudes try their luck, all the while your mates are ribbing you and calling you a mess.

I don't think Lingard starts for United in our best 11 and he needs/wants consistent game time. I think the right thing to do is sell while he profile is sky high.
Knowing Woodward we'll offer him a new 4 year deal and he'll turn to shit again.

Lingard and a bit of cash for Sancho does not seem to far fetched now doesn't it?
Calm down, Shakespeare!
I'm guessing this is actually what you did, and what led to your username
All the people who joined the hate cult are now struggling to understand why the alien overlord spaceships haven't come to collect them at the allotted time.
I'll tell you why. Lingard was always a good good player who was simply going through a rough time. The fact you drank the Koolaid is a reflection on you, not him.
Didn't have him in my England squad but it will be hard for Southgate to leave him out. I think the advantage he has over some is that he's been to a major tournament and has that experience. Was possibly our brightest player, too, which means he can step up to the occasion.
Southgate has a lot of thinking to do.

I never thought i'd see the day
24M was a lot back then, especially if you take into consideration his injury record.
Was fred a 28 yr old with a year left on his contract? Because that reduces the value significantly when a player has the option to just sit tight another season and sign anywhere in Jan.
If we're going to invest properly this transfer window, JLingz would be surplus to requirements.
He's also having the time of his life there as well so maybe it's good for all parties if we cash in.

How have we got so little out of him since that Mourinho season when he looked good?
Got to look at our management of players and inability to get the best out of squad players.

He’s going to take West Ham third in the league isn’t he. Whatever you think of him or Moyes you have to say fair fecks to them
Chelsea got £100M for Hazard in pre-covid times. And he's 30 now.
At this point West Ham should be giving us Rice + cash in order to take Lingard.
Again, I'm just so so happy for him.

Sell Bruno to accommodate Jesse?
Yeah but that's Madrid. Look at Hazard and Bale. Most sensible clubs don't make such risky purchases.
