>Meulensteen said: ‘I can recall players like Ruud van Nistelrooy and Diego Forlan coming down to watch our sessions, and when they saw Jesse both said, ‘Jesus, this boy is good’.’

La Liga BTFO, Jesse 'English Iniesta' Lingaard is better than all your roided up manlets
>another one of these young and promising dark folks appear out of nowhere >ofc he's """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""English"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" >x and y say he is the next z >all of England literally see them as their messiah >somehow nothing else happens >nothing has ever been heard about him ever since
Many such stories!
Camden Ramirez
What, like Mario Gotze? Taking out the unnecessary racism of course lol
Kayden Torres
I don't think anyone sees Lingard as the next messiah though, for the other part you are spot on
Nathaniel Martin
>his counter is literally a combination of no u and attacking the guy that unironically won us the world cup Is this the British humor everyone keeps talking about?
Zachary Anderson
If Kane was German he'd be your best player kraut
Aiden Richardson
Certainly gets more goals and assists than Iniesta.
Jacob Gonzalez
He's 27 and had about 3 good games in his career
Bentley King
25
Austin Martinez
>tf >tp you dont know what ur talking about
David Collins
is this retard blind? lmao they are nothing alike, completely different kind of players wtf
Jayden Mitchell
Is this a fucking joke? I've watched every United match he's played in and he's useless the entire match until he scores or assists some flukey as fuck goal. Ludicrous.
Logan Jones
>the guy that unironically won us the world cup
It's not out of the question that Lingaard could score the winner for us in 2018 vs Brazil to rival Gotze, it doesn't change the fact that Gotze nowhere near lived up to promise
Jaxon Foster
LA LIGA EXPOSED!!!
Lincoln Ortiz
no wonder Meulensteen is completely discredited as a manager
Ethan Rogers
saul niguez is like 150 times better than this mutt lmao
Samuel Fisher
his dabs are really nice though the form and the emotion behind it are top notch
Nathan Bennett
>young
lingard is 25 tho which makes it all the more embarrassing
John Harris
*dab*
Alexander White
too true
Brody Martinez
The way I see it, after spending 89 gorillion on their former youth player, United are absolutely terrified of letting go of any half-decent lad that still have a shred of potential for greatness.
Lingard obviously has a fraction of Alli's or Sterling's ability while being 2-4 years older than them, but hangs around because of how embarrassing Pogba's saga was for MU.
In appreciation for his French overlord, he's even adapted dabbing as a celebration.
Alexander Bell
...
Josiah Butler
Iniesta is the Spanish Lingard
Parker Smith
he's unironically better than any player your country has produced
Joshua Hall
>'t-the ratface paceynigger is good guys I swear' british 'young prospect' number 1000, to bad this one isn't even young
Austin Cox
Manure cancer is the worst. What a disgusting club
Kevin Lopez
if was the owner of a team like PSG i would put like 180mn on him, you would have to be crazy to not listen to the renowed former united youth manager Rene Meulensteen
Ayden Allen
...
Mason Smith
Based
Benjamin Jones
Let's start a list. Here's a few off the top of my head: >andros townsend >ross barkley >danny welbeck >jordon ibe
Lincoln Turner
t. ian from anywhere but manchester
Jaxon Cruz
>25 years old >a grand total of 23 league goals as a forward but he's black and dabs so that's good enough for united customers and the english media
William Robinson
>the [nationality] [famous player] The easiest way to spot a flop.
>You now remember when Meulensteen was Fulham manager and signed a bunch of random shit from the Man U reserves
Not sure why anyone would listen to this fraud
Jordan Watson
So far we have >andros townsend >ross barkley >danny welbeck >jordon ibe >theo walcott >nathan redmond >kieran gibbs >wayne routledge >alex oxlade-chamberlain >gabby agbonlahor >joleon lescott >ashley young >ravel morrison >jack rodwell
Could prolly make this list 50 players long. wasn't Will Hughes going to be the "next" someone
Lucas Moore
>David "next david beckham" Bentley >Micah "next sol campbell" Richards
Adrian Carter
German user talked about melanized English """hopes""" and Hughes is pure Nordic blood, I'm afraid.
Ayden Edwards
And yet even if he was that good he would still be in Jose’s Park the Bus system and still do nothing.
Brayden Roberts
You're just naming black players. The only ones of those that were hyped Walcott, Ox and Jack Rodwell for about a month
Jace Lopez
Now i know why he's no longer their youth manager
Ryan Turner
And Ox is good now under Klopp, it was just >Arselel making him seem shit before
Liam Sanders
Ox`s problem, much like the Liverpool team, is consistency.
Brayden Howard
*dabs*
Levi Roberts
Well the article isn't that b- >‘In my opinion, you could fly Jesse to Barcelona, let him play in Iniesta’s position, and he would comfortably be able to do it and fit in. Top fucking kek
Austin Clark
Dele Alli is also a meme.
Elijah Reed
>list of players that aren't particularly great >as if every single country on the planet doesn't have the exact same
Ayden Butler
Josh "English Pirlo" McEachran
James Brooks
Friendly reminded Manchester United is an anagram of "Entrenched Autism". Makes perfect sense.
Parker Morales
DON'T YOU DARE TO SAY INIESTA AND JESSE LINGARD IN THE SAME SENTENCE
Anthony Nelson
>>joleon lescott >>ashley young both these players were good there was a year when young was unironically englands best player yet everyone seems to forget this
Samuel Perry
city and united both suck desu
Blake Lee
The only ones out of these that people ever claimed to be the future were Welbeck, Walcott, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lescott and Young. The rest are just average players.
Cooper Edwards
he was born in warrington. wtf are you talking about? the colour of his skin pissing you off? stick it up your racist ass. maybe you can timewarp back to the 3rd reich asshole
Hudson Gomez
whats it like to hate? cant be fun to be in poland either.
Blake Nguyen
wouldnt like to miss penalties in your country wtf
William Sanchez
This
Isaiah Harris
more racism from a german. suprising.
Mason Miller
>‘And he does it in the Premier League, which is more difficult than La Liga, so that is a credit to Jesse.’
So basically better than Iniesta.
Henry Wood
>It's not out of the question that Lingaard could score the winner for us in 2018
4 u
Gabriel Anderson
*scores the world cup winning goal* heh, nothing personnel kiddor
Kevin Sanders
he would be our best striker, yes. he would fit very well t b h
Ayden Wright
The moral caliber of players at top clubs these days is at an all time low. Half of United's team consists of black lads who pretend to be gangsters. Martial seems like the only decent black player they have. The rest are all dabbing or "Milly-rocking" clowns.
Easton Roberts
>object of football is to score goals >Kane scored more goals than anyone else in 2017 >No German player probably even in the top 10 >you
Asher Murphy
the object of football is to win and england's done none of that for some time at the wc, euros, or champions league.
Joseph Ramirez
England is a bum factory.
Ryder Perry
and Martial is wasting away at park the bus man utd
>every brit hyping up this promising youngster >actually look up his stats >he's fucking 25
this is a meme and I'm just out of the loop, right?
Christopher Smith
was your last world cup more recent than ours?
Xavier Phillips
He's only just started to be productive. What will happen next is that he'll dine out off this reasonable form for the rest of his career and never get near it again.
Chase Jackson
what up lads
*milly rocks*
Zachary Harris
what do you mean by this
Carter Lee
That would be Lucas Vazquez
William Kelly
in his defense, lingard is pretty damn great at moving into space and being at the best spot between the enemy lines, he has nowhere near the technique of iniesta, but his positioning is borderline world-class.
Lincoln Jackson
this guy was battling relegation when managing israel's second biggest club. he's also failed at more clubs since being sacked I think. he's just riding being fergie's assistant, his opinions are worthless
Lincoln Long
is he, dare I say it, the black raumdeuter?
Adrian Bell
only united fans rate him though
Michael Flores
i never thought an American flag would post something this good. You are absolutely right.
>t. someone who's watched all united games since August. i can say pogba has been a far more effective player desu. Lindgaard just has his 15 minutes of brilliance with an empty subpar performance the rest of the 75
Anthony Ortiz
I haven't made up my mind yet. He's brilliant this season, but some of the goals he's made felt like luck, as though I don't see him scoring those goals on consistent basis season after season.
I also don't rate his possession as highly as Iniesta. I don't think he would made it in a possession based team like Barcelona. In a physical, counter attacking side like Man Utd sure, he cut it, but not in Barcelona.
That said, there are some blacks in Barcelona that I wouldn't think would cut it, but have made it there anyways. Dembele, Umtiti and Semedo all have too weak possession game in my eyes, but they are playing on a consistent basis.
