Simon Jordan doubles down on Jesse Lingard criticism after Nottingham Forest transfer

Former Crystal Palace owner and talkSPORT pundit Simon Jordan has doubled down on his criticism of new Nottingham Forest signing Jesse Lingard.

Jordan has been critical of Lingard collecting a high salary at the City Ground, citing his lack of games over the last three years and a reliance on social media to boost his career and profile. The point has been a contentious one argued by many, with some people more bothered about Lingard's off-the-field antics than his actions on it.

Last week, Jordan tweeted: This is what £200k a week buys… Let’s hope that JLingz doesn’t Ming zz at #nffc... Time will tell if £10m on a player with undoubted talent, but not a lot of return in the last 3 years, alongside a unhealthy obsession with Tik Tok, is money well spent?
