See What Lingard Said About Man United That Is Seriously Trending

Nottingham Forest attacking midfielder, Jesse Lingard, has hit out at Manchester United in a blistering attack.

Lingard claimed he was sold “false promises” by Man United and that his exit from Old Trafford may have been “political.”

The 30-year-old spoke ahead of Nottingham Forest’s Premier League tie with Man United on Tuesday night.

“I don’t know why I was not playing [during my time at Man United]. I don’t know what the problem was, whether it was politics or whatever,” Lingard told the Telegraph.

“I still have not got an answer to this day. I didn’t even ask.

“I would rather that someone, out of respect for me being there that long, told me, ‘this is why you are not playing’, but I never got that.

“It was false promises. I was training hard, and I was sharp, I was ready to play the games.”
