Jesse Lingard says he was never told why Manchester United failed to deliver on their "false promises" during his final season at Old Trafford - seemingly taking aim at Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick.
Having progressed through the Academy, before spending two decades with the club, Lingard is gearing up for a first return to his beloved United with Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night (8pm). It should be an emotional night for Lingard and his family due to their association.
Lingard played 232 games for United - scoring 35 goals and providing 21 assists - but his last 12 months at the club were overshadowed. He totted up only 355 minutes in the Premier League and was denied a farewell appearance when Brentford headed to Old Trafford for the final home match.
