Marcus Rashford has claimed the reception Jesse Lingard received at Old Trafford would have meant a lot to the player.
United returned to Premier League action with a match against strugglers Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night and the encounter was the first opportunity for Lingard to play his former club after leaving on a free transfer in the summer.
Lingard started the game but he was helpless in preventing his side from suffering a 3-0 defeat against a confident and improving Erik ten Hag side, who could have won by more, despite goals from Rashford, Anthony Martial and Fred.
