DJFern94 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Forest fan at work was buzzing this was happening today. Reminded him that they're taking our sloppy seconds. He honestly looked distraught when he found out Lingard had played for us. ThePrisoner, Rammy03, Andicis and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crewton Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 I'll give them credit for persuading him to sign up for a year only - minimal financial risk, unless everyone suddenly wants a pay rise. And why wouldn't they, because it's not as if he's a superstar or a once World Class player like, say, Wayne Rooney or Ashley Cole, is he? Perhaps Maryknackers has also promised an unlimited supply of heating oil from Russia too? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s because the Guardian’s Jacob Steinberg, as well as The Times, have reported that Lingard agreed terms with Forest to the tune of almost £200,000-a-week. It’s explained that West Ham were feeling confident about a reunion with Lingard and that despite being reluctant to meet the player’s preference for a £180,000-a-week deal, believed that a wage of £150,000-a-week would be enough to tempt him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what he'll be telling them on relegation Van Hooidonk style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Why do footballers also have little dances or hand signals for celebrations. You can understand somebody like Cristiano Ronaldo have a signature, global brand celebration or move. But Jesse Lingard… Premier ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Well that is a really surprising signing, based on everything I saw when we signed him - he was a signing we absolutely didn’t need - he was a signing that weakened our overall team play and was exceptionally selfish with no apparent understanding of his impact on others. I was amazed he ever got to play for England and even more shocked that he has 30 caps because he has never done anything. you may notice I wasn’t a fan but if his reported wage is anywhere near correct he is going to carve a massive hole in team morale once the defeats start going in.

And we thought Derby City was bad. He'll be stoned to death tomorrow in the market square for this error. Anyone would think he signed just for a suitcase of cash offered yesterday and knew nothing about them and their faux outrage. This guys 30 isn't he. Clearly never got past 15 in his head.

What a weird decision from him. I suspect he’s not very good at maths. GenBr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaspode Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Loving the Reds on Twatter getting ultra defensive when people criticise the idea of paying him £200K a week - almost as if paying him £120K a week isn't also obscene..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're effectively hiring him for one season for the grand total of £10m. It could work out well for both parties, but if Forest get relegated and Lingard has a crap season or a bad injury, torn ACL say, it could be damaging to both, but catastrophic for him career-wise.

alanmarklewis Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Could be a great signing for them seeing as they didn't have to pay a transfer fee. At least they're buying a few players in an attempt to be competitive, can't knock them for trying. alram and Red_Dawn 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
