Andy Townsend BELIEVES Jesse Lingard Has MOVED To FC Seoul Because He Had "NO CHOICE!"😬👀

[@danielgarepis-holland3214]

He's making 15,000 a week at Seoul. Nothing like Saudi. A shame that they couldn't spend 5 minutes looking this up.

[@simonbluh]

Surely someone could have done 2 seconds of research and said in Andy’s ear that Lingard is going to make £15-20,000 a week at Seoul…so it is nothing to do with money Andy 😂 it’s to do with no one wanting him

[@yehsureHD]

Simon Jordan and Jim were literally talking about this early this morning on the same show. It's comical to listen to how clueless they are

[@Critchy39]

Wow! Is that the state we’ve got to where we now believe that’s not a lot of money!! That’s still a fortune. He was greedy at Nottingham forest. He offered himself to Saudi, they have a quota to stick to and nobody wanted to waste a position on him. That’s the most at his age he could have got anywhere. That’s why he’s gone. It’ll also be an easy ride for him. I imagine he will last a year before he gets homesick

Good luck to Jesse. It will be an amazing life experience for him. He's had a great career, one most footballers can only dream of.

I would have loved to have seen his face when his agent first told him that FC Seoul is the best he could get.

[@StrangeJoe]

Should have fired the agent and I'm saying this as a Chelsea fan😡🤬 Just a few years ago everyone was wanting to sign the dynamic midfield duo of Lingard and Pogba🔥

[@Deathmare235]

@@StrangeJoeno one wanted lingard, pogba yes but not lingard

[@apoorvjain6654]

Why are people so personally offended Lingard is going to the K-League lol? I don't really get that. If he wants to go to a new country, experience a new culture, a new league and just enjoy playing football, why's that so terrible? Good for him tbh, as a United fan I wish him all the best.

[@PRCOM]

Had bags of potential and was brilliant at west ham, should of stayed there instead of going to forrest for the money. That move and how it turned out put off any premier club signing him

[@안병욱-g4l]

As a Korean football fan, I dunno why people say it was for the money. K leage players actually dont get paid that well and that goes the same for Jessie. I’m sure he came here for other reasons, maybe just wants to play without all the tabloids and people giving him a hard time.

[@stephengillman5387]

Jesse gets £17,500 per week, which equates to an annual salary of £910,000

[@stevethedweeb3846]

Seoul paying nowhere near 200k a week it’s not china this is really bottom tier journalism

[@alantheloneranger]

Where does Goldstein get the idea that Lingard is getting £200,000 a week. He's on £17,500 - £20,000 per week

[@antoinedoinell]

he moved to seoul to market his e-sports business

[@davidrowlands4183]

Totally agree

[@realtalk8665]

Very smart move for him post football career wise

[@JP-es1nb]

Been out of the game a long time now. Didn’t do anything at forest. He’s too much of a risk for clubs in Europe to take. Can he still play? No one knows. Training is one thing, playing is another. Still holds some status to get paid well over in South Korea so good luck over in the K league. He’s looking after himself now and I respect that. You don’t have to give it all forever to a relentless league

[@mikeblack8145]

Lingard played 229 games for Man U, Notts and the loans. To get it into perspective, James Milner played 230 game JUST FOR LIVERPOOL in a glittering carrerr in big clubs. My point is, he hasnt played at all really in the grand scheme of things. What a waster!

[@oj8198]

Still a young player? Is he not 31 ffs🤣

[@omaoileoinb9]

This rheortic needs to stop, hes 31. 100% agree with you

[@heyheyhe0011]

Lingard has incredible Seoul, enough to finish his Korea in my homeland. At reported weekly wages of 17k, is the highest paid player in the league.

[@EzziiG]

I dont understand what the problem is 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@markant9534]

He was on fire at West ham then didn`t go back and did nothing at Forest.

[@SeanDonD12]

[@f_2019]

If saudi didn't want him, that says everything about how awful he is because saudi have taken really average players

[@finfog4590]

With active careers

[@shredstein]

Who says Saudi didn’t want him? Still making almost a million per year, and I could definitely see the appeal of living in Korea over Saudi Arabia. Not knocking anyone, just saying preference either way is understandable. Sounds like a nice enough career for a young lad to me. How many his age are making that kind of money at a bank job? (Far less than one percent)

[@markt804]

Considering how little he's done in his career, you sure do talk about him a lot. Is it not time to stop? Does anyone care at all?

[@macmanj2]

Of all the non big leagues to go to, the K league or J league have to be near the best considering how cool Korea and Japan are. He’s not getting big money but he’ll have an unreal time there and Jesse comes across as someone who’d love it there. He seems like lifestyle choice is a big thing for him so if he’s not getting offers in big clubs, he’s dead right to head to Korea!

[@Akinwalesegun]

Lots of people in the media in this country arenso ignorant of anything outside uk and ireland

i mean most people outside of asia will understandably be naive about korea

[@spursfandan6081]

It was purely a financial reason after no big clubs came in for him. Good luck to him. Like Andy said it's an amazing country, and what an adventure.

[@markant9534]

Lingard hasn`t played well since his West Ham form.

[@oliverwoodcock5307]

How much of a wage was Jesse after? Very likely to be the stumbling block and why he moved to Japan.

4:23 FC Seoul and every other club in the K-League aren't rich. Unlike China and Saudi Arabia, South Korea can't offer footballers huge contracts. Lingard moved to South Korea for the attention and possibly as a stepping stone to move to the Saudi League.

He should have left or been sold years ago and done something in the Premiership but he loved the tag line of being a United player, even though he didnt really play.
