Lingard is not that bad a player really. He seems to have lost his way a bit but I don't think he's as awful as some make out. Not sure where he would fit in here though.

you might be right

if we do go for him I’d rather him on loan then we can try before we buy

Lingard is a poor player now, I'd put him in the same bracket as Drinkwater, more interested in being a footballer than in playing football.

still didn’t stop us bringing in Drinkwater though even though everyone could see it was doomed from the start

I don’t agree he is anywhere near as bad as Drinkwater though think your way off there mate

I liked his pre-season training video from the summer showing his workout routine from his garden. Lovely chap, skilful, something to prove. At the right price would offer more than any of our midfield sub options.

He's probably in the same bracket as Barkley in that he may need to step down slightly to find form, confidence and a shot at the England squad for a major championship.  I think there is a player in there somewhere and a half season loan may help all parties.

A thousand lashes for whoever suggests that it a "sweetener" or "makeweight" for Jack to go to Man U though!

He's not as bad but I still think he's happy living the footballer lifestyle without having to play all that often which was where Drinkwater was a couple of seasons back. Lets see if he kicks up a fuss for a move in January, if he doesn't then I see it as a pretty clear direction of where he's going.

A Bid for Vestergaard in January would be very nice. Even a swap with Mings plus a couple of millions?

A no from me, from what I’ve read he’s been getting loads of grief from Southampton fans so I wouldn’t say he is an upgrade, or at least not guaranteed.

He has played all of five games this year because of injury. No thanks, unless he is ready to go.

There was a Bremen game on TV recently and I watched it to see what he was all about, it was some time before his name was mentioned. I know its only one game but he didn't look as good as what we've got.
