Sorry 100k a week is facking nuts

posted on 6/4/17

It's terrible tbh, he doesn't deserve that sort of wage. Martial isn't even earning that much if I'm right.

Late April fools joke?

tbf we've got Ashley Young earning 130k a week so we shouldn't be surprised. We seem to be a charity for the average PL footballers.

Nice one Lingard!

I love how any "bad" news is taken as gospel, any promising news and it would be "that's sky sports, ffs"

That's crazy, average squad players should not be getting that kind of wage.

why are you complaining Arab, its not like its your hard earned cash thats paying his wages

This will send Stretty over the edge.

So what? What has he done to warrant earning more than the likes of Martial? I'm allowed to voice an opinion on the club rewarding average English footballers with obscene money.

He's scored a winning Fa cup final goal. An important league cup final goal

He's someone who understands Joses orders and does well

We do have some selective cants on this board

Cant see another club offering even half that, guess your stuck with him for a few years

whilst not the best player in the world he's a grafter, and sometimes hard work is rewarded.

and to answer you question... hes done no worse than Martial has this season

He's been very inconsistent though, a few good games here and there. Martial was at least top class last season, Lingard is older and hasn't replicated any sort of form similar to him.

Why are you getting het up about news that has yet to be confirmed... Surely, as a media student, you should know better?

I'm glad he's resigning... taking the reported wage with a pinch of salt.... footballs gone mad anyway

whether he just runs about or not... he at least looks like he gives a sh!t.

I think he's under-rated tbh, never going to be a world beater but not as bad or average as some make out

So John Oshea should haven been on around 300k a week when he was with us then?

Not worth half that wage. 24 now and not good enough on a regular basis.

Sky Sports are usually reliable when it comes to new contracts. And I'm not a media student, I graduated last year. Don't even know what it's got to do with this topic.

You didn't pay zero £ for him though. Well deserved. Hidden in the martial, rashford and myhki debate is how lingard in the last few months has out performed them playing on the left, right and middle. Ashley young is paid way over that, Rooney is ... well less said about that the better.

He is United through and through.

So played under 2 managers at utd, and a full international... he cant be that bad.

He has tripled his wages ... how many players nowadays are full england internationals, playing for one of the biggest clubs in the world and is still on 30k a week?

Good luck to him.

Maybe if some of the other so called far superior players put in the graft jesse has we wouldnt be struggling to make top 4

I'm just waiting for Barry to state that paying Lingard £100k a week proves United are the best team in the country, the fact no one else would or could pay him that only goes to prove that United and only United can attract the very best/ worst players with massive wages

wages don't generally get released, so no one knows if sky are reliable or not.
