How dare Lingard have a different sense of humour from a bunch of weirdos on an Internet Forum?!?!?!
I have no problem with his social media content in general (at least the stuff I see here since I don't subscribe to anything).
But you have to remember that it's intended for a particular medium and a particular audience. If you took his Tinder profile and posted it in the Redcafe Football Forum, of course it'll look out of place and ill judged to those viewing it out-of-context. Hell, take any scene out of Anchor Man or some similar movie and it'll look just as weird.
In the case of Lingard's posts on Instagram, he's playing to the gallery. I do, however, understand why the last video has raised a few hackles. The sexual element wasn't the best choice given his followers are mostly kids. It wasn't him doing the act, but it was irresponsible of him to keep in.
The reaction to Lingard's social media is really just a way to vent against him not being world class. That's not the guy's fault, though. He always tries his best and he never moans. There's nothing he can do about how much talent he has. Blame LvG for promoting him, Mourinho and Ole for playing him, and Woodward for not buying an upgrade.
