Don't want Lingard but, out of curiosity, what's he ever done to be called a wanker?

Rashford seems a really good person and he is actually an excellent footballer who has had a dip in form. And while at West Ham Lingard was superb. Oxlade Chamberlain is someone I wouldn’t want. He’s not a bad player but we have others I’d rather see given opportunities

Agree not sure why a wanker but these 3 are Everton type signings
I hope our ambitions are higher than,  injury prone, out of form, not quite made it players

I certainly wouldn’t mind if we signed Rashford, but not the other two

Rashford could be brilliant. Or he could be not much better than what we already have. Given that they'd probably want at least 60-70 million I'd rather invest elsewhere but would allow myself some hopeful optimism if he did sign. I don't think we particularly need Lingard, and AOC, not the best AOC, would cost £150k a week and probably play about as many minutes as Jenas did for us. Solid no to him, while offering a wholesome yes to his American initialsake.

Lingard was a West Ham signing and he did well for a team we would love to be right now in terms of performance, consistency and finishing position. We finished lower half of the table.

Agreed. But I think that form was the exception rather than the rule if you look at his career so far. And I don't think he's better than Buendia or Coutinho. He isn't leaving the Man U sub's bench to sit on ours.

I wouldn't want Rashford, think he's peaked and the Yanited fans have been complaining about his performances for 18-24 months now. If I had to take one of the three it would probably be JLingz.

We he's played for Blues, Manure and West Ham, so that's pretty damning in fairness

Rashford's form has been awful for a while now. They have been a basket case of a club but I wouldn't be overly chuffed with us signing him.

Busted flush is a very apt description. Agreed, and that's before you consider the wages he'd be looking for.
