In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
If we sell him we should be looking at £30m minimum.
heh
Thank feck you're not in charge of transfers.
+ Rice.
Dimitar Lingard.
With your mentality comes the clown show where the likes of Lingard, Jones, Rojo keep lingering on for years for no value add.
And then you lot will complain about how Liverpool or Chelsea sell their scrubs for so much money.
Berbatovesque turn there wow.
Confidence prime through his vein.

Taking the piss now
It’s amazing what confidence can do to a player. Jesse looks like a new man, on fire at the moment. Nice to see.
You've literally got a player who's easily worth £50mil minimum and you're hoping to sell for half the value.
Regardless of your opinion of whether he should be sold or not, selling for £25mil is a bad bit if business.
So I repeat, thank feck you're not in charge of transfers.
Clever pick up from Moyes, in fairness.
If Lingard fires them into the Champions League, we should be looking at £30/40 million easy.

If he came back it would only be a matter of time before he was blamed for everything that went wrong for us, so if I was him I'd try and get a permanent move to West Ham, and tbf he should their number one summer transfer target now.
One of the best loan aqusitions in world football this window. Love to see it.
Delighted for him!
I don't know what it says about our coaching that we struggle to get a tune out of almost all our players. Maybe it says nothing, I don't know.

I think people are being hasty comparing Lingard to Messi. Realistically, Jesse is a level below more like Zidane or Figo.
He is 28 with one year of his contract left.
You are from the Woody school of clownery where you give him a 5 year contract extension and then he stinks up the place again and you can never sell because of the new contract.
The good thing is that Ole is ruthless.
Of course he should be sold. He's never been consistently good for United and has no place in the side. Solksjaer gave him plenty of opportunities and Lingard failed to impress.
In the form of his life, even better than under Mourinho in 17/18
He'll be back here next year. Solskjaer is so fond of him, I was amazed he was sent out on load. On form like this, he'll bring him back for sure.
Seriously, if we didnt know this lad and were judging him based on his form since January, we'd be talking Grelish, Maddison, Rice type hype from the English media.

West Ham are going to be desperate to get him, excellent news
Young Jesse might just end up being worth more than Declan Rice at this rate. Imagine if he fires them to top 4, in the absence of Rice!
Just simply so happy for him honestly. Showing what he’s capable of, he’s a joy to watch.
Yeah logic, we'll sell the experienced player in the form of his life for absolute peanuts whilst keep the likes of VDB as back up to Bruno.
Consider that selling isn't actually the wisest course of action, especially at 25 fecking million.
For reference, Fred cost double that.
He wants assurances from ole that he'll start most weeks. That's not an assurance that Ole can give.
He doesn't really fit out style of play though, West Ham counter more which suits him. Against us half these teams just sit back, where Jesse's not much use as he's never been a tight spaces type player / dribbler.
He'd actually fit in well with a team like Inter or Atletico that tend to sit back and counter.
Spent years trying to convince many that Lingard is actually a good footballer. Could actually be time to come outside @Kostov
They simply have to buy him. A player performing that well for them and gelling that quickly with his teammates. This try-before-you-buy thing is working a treat. I'm thinking 20m easy, even with just the year remaining.
Would you actually turn down £45 million for Lingard this summer?
Rewriting history here.
This is a different argument. Poster in question is saying we should sell him for £25mil, what's the point in that?
I’ve always backed his ability but he’s a major confidence player. The kind of player that is better off at a club with less exposure and pressure.
Glad to see him performing the way he does for WH, good for him and good for us when we’re selling him this summer!
He should and needs to be a regular starter for a team in the PL and he will never be that for us so no point bringing him back with a fresh new contract here.

Considering they have been spending £40m+ on the likes of Sebastian Haller, we should demand £50m initially at least. Surely they aren't going to turn down the chance to retain their best player of the Premier League era.
Well it’s probably a more realistic transfer fee for a player in Lingard’s position than £50 million.
I think the main angle should be using Lingard to drive the price down of Rice to a point that leaves the transfer budget able to get him and then Sancho as well. That would be a brilliant duo to add to the starting XI.
West Ham won't be the only club who will want him in the summer
Has to be a contender for player of the month for March

Incredible that 90% of these posts here when Jesse does well is “how much are we gonna get for him” rather than “I hope he can force his way back into the squad now”
....& yet half this forum complain when we don’t have quality in depth, beggers belief.

Yeah, considering the financial situation of all clubs, it would benefit us and West Ham, if they are seriously interested in Lingard. If they still quote us 100 million for Rice, we should do the same for Lingard, I'm sure a lot of PL teams would want him in this form.
