Hugo Sanchez Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 Yeah seems very lightweight. No impact what so ever. Keane was decent but they were crap yesterday. Think St ledger should start when fit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danno Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 As anyone saw jesse mum crying on facebook about her lad not playing ? Can see him going back. Where abouts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essington blue Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 Well Bolton was his senior debut, yesterday was he's second ever senior game, would imagine he was abit nervous in the first game. Got to disagree a little with you there, cus he had just played against Chelsea in the cup a few days earlier, against their strongest side aswell.

Captain... Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 Does anyone know what is happening with this loan deal? The BBC report said it was extended to today, so have they both gone back, will it be extended further, without Keane and Whitbread and SSL injured we look very short of cover at the back. So anyone know anything or are we all too busy following Jesse's mum on facebook to actually take interest in footballing matters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologises mate I was only going on League apps, yes he has played 3 times for Utd in the league cup! Still only 5 senior apps in total, the lad is still finding he way in the game.

iamafox Posted 2 January 2013 Share Posted 2 January 2013 Lingard has the potential to be a really good player, but from what I've seen of him, I honestly think that he's not good enough to play in the Championship. Reckon he needs to playing some League One/Two football so that he can develop his talent more efficiently. Keane's definitely a player worth keeping until the end of this season at least. He played well yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would suggest that we are near to completing a deal for another defender or just Utd aren't playing ball! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Munshi Posted 3 January 2013 Share Posted 3 January 2013 We havent been able to see the best of of Lingard because he only comes on for 10-15 mins and I think both matches we were losing when he came on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's A Knockeart! Posted 3 January 2013 Share Posted 3 January 2013 Keane looks a superb prospect. Lingaard is young, but he looks far too lightweight and short of ideas to make any real impact at this level. He won't make it at United, and I'll be surprised if he could make it with us too.

whoareyaaa Posted 3 January 2013 Share Posted 3 January 2013 Good call really, If we can keep Keane until the end of the season then that would be great. Lingard offers us nothing currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Nads Posted 4 January 2013 Share Posted 4 January 2013 Lingard is technically gifted and an intelligent footballer. We've got a player called Lingard as well, but he's crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosbehFox Posted 4 January 2013 Share Posted 4 January 2013 Would like to see a replay of their goal, though, which came largely because we got complacent at the back and I suspect it may be Keane who was guilty or losing his man. Personally thought Morgan got caught too square on marking his man. So once the pass was laid off to Vaughan he had time for a shot. Nice to see that Lingard was completely written off on his size. He played less than 90 minutes, hardly touched the ball and when he did he hardly gave it away. But to use the cliches 'he's not good enough cos he's lightweight'.....which is an in-joke to myself cos everyone moans this country doesn't make enough technically skilled footballers regardless of size. Random rant apologises. To the United fan, very diffcult to tell if Lingard will make it or not, simple as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grey Fox Posted 4 January 2013 Share Posted 4 January 2013 A month I think Thanks. So we still might look for someone more permanent during the window. Or extend again if not. I guess we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being lightweight wasn't the reason for him not being good enough, he's the sort of player you'd expect to be creative or at least look as if he might be creative. I didn't see enough of that when he played. You point out that he didn't play much. Admittedly, he didn't really get the chance to prove himself on the pitch but does that excuse him? You have to question why he didn't get that much game time, I'd assume it's because Pearson thought we had better players and I fully agree with him.

It's may sometimes be a cliche to dismiss a footballer for his size - look at Messi and Maradona for obvious examples of this not being the case - but in Lingaard's case, however, it was partly true. He was just getting hussled and harried, effectively pushed out of the game and when he did get the ball he was too far away from goal, out of reach per se, to have any impact as an attacking midfielder. He reminds me of that Swedish lad we got from Liverpool who played a few games; comfortable, but never looked capable of doing anything. Size wasn't a cliched dismissive; it is merely one of many reasons why Lingard was ineffective. I'm 5'6" btw, I'd be the last to criticise over size!

nickm Posted 4 January 2013 Share Posted 4 January 2013 I watched Lingard play more than once and thought he was very poor, found it hard to believe he even got through man united's academy if i'm honest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
