A number of football fans have criticised Jesse Lingard after he took to Instagram to bid farewell to his time at the City Ground.
Less than a year after the former Manchester United attacking midfielder joined the 2022 Championship play-off final winners on a free transfer, Forest, last week, made the decision to release him after just one season on the banks of the Trent. He rejected a return to West Ham United in favour of joining the newly promoted club last summer.
However, his time in the Midlands failed to work out at as he made just 20 appearances in all competitions for Steve Cooper's side. He started the campaign as a regular fixture in the team before losing his place as Forest started to adapt to life back in the Premier League.
