Jesse Lingard - Nottingham Forest

Good move for him and club.
Guaranteed starter and if it doesn't work out he can move on and so can club. They get a very motivated player given WC year for relatively cheap as it's a free. Good luck to the lad

Not sure how breaking the bank for an utterly average guy who has scored more than 4 goals in a PL season twice and never hit double digits can be described as a ‘good move for the club’. It’s a disastrous, hilarious overpay

But I do love that he has spurned WHU.

What a ridiculous move, don’t get why Forest want to give him that much.

I thought he would have gone to West Ham, had his best spell as a player there and was a fan favourite. Guess they wouldn’t stump up big wages for him. Bit of a kick in the teeth though because they helped restore some credibility to his name.

Just watched his announcement video. Horrendously cringeworthy.
