December 29-Lingard, who joined Nottingham Forest this summer, said he was disappointed that he did not get his last chance to play at Old Trafford.
Lingard was disappointed that he did not receive a final send-off at Old Trafford last season under Lonnick. After growing up in the Manchester United youth camp, Lingard spent 11 years in the first team and was occasionally loaned out.
Earlier, Lingard’s brother Scott criticized Manchester United: “20 years of blood, sweat and tears, four domestic trophies, three cup finals scored, not even goodbye.”
Lingard also said earlier this week that he was aggrieved that he did not have a proper farewell. “it was the last home game and Lonnick didn’t let me play. I just wondered if I could play, even for the last five minutes, so I could applaud the fans and say goodbye to them. ”
“to be honest, I think I deserve it. But that didn’t happen. I hope I can go back there and do that. ”
In an interview with the Daily Telegraph, Lingard added: “I don’t know why I can’t play. I don’t know what the problem is, politics or something else.” To this day, I haven’t got the answer, and I haven’t asked. I’d rather someone tell me, out of respect for me, ‘that’s why you can’t play’, but I never got the answer. They are all false promises. I worked very hard in training, but in the end I didn’t have a chance to play, which is very frustrating. ”
Former Manchester United defender Paul Parker responded to Lingard, saying he “disrespected” Manchester United and did not meet the criteria for playing. Parker said: “Lingard is not disrespected at Manchester United and he is completely wrong to say so.” He is a local, and now he doesn’t respect the club. He doesn’t look at himself in the mirror. He doesn’t have the ability to play for Manchester United and he needs to admit that instead of blaming the club. ”
“to be honest, it is nonsense to regard politics as the reason for his failure. You should never use this sentence when talking about football. If he really wants to talk about politics, he should go to Gary Neville. I hope one day he will grow up and realize that it is disrespectful to the club to publish it in the newspaper, and then he should apologize to the club and the fans. ”
