Lingard trains with Hammers

It seems David Moyes just can't keep away from his ex. The Guardian reports that Jesse Lingard is training with West Ham for fitness and there is a chance WHU would offer him a contract. Hopefully Jesse is being served with large slices of humble pie in the club canteen. He was a great signing on loan at West Ham three seasons ago, but at 30 is his fitness, form and commitment still there? His move to Forest for more money was a mistake, so perhaps Lingard now realises he should have signed for the Hammers. Moyes will have to examine his attitude very carefully, but on a free a committed Lingard could be a decent signing.

Meanwhile the Harry Maguire move has stalled, with Maguire reportedly wanting £7 million  to leave Man United. This isn't a good sign as he doesn't seem that desperate to join us and the club are right to threaten to pull out of the deal unless it happens soon.

Sign him up - he'll be cheap.

Didn't want Maguire anyway. Not good enough for Man U, not good enough for WHU,

Supposedly a good will gesture by us, where was lingards good will or respect for us after we kick started his England chances again and he couldn't get a game at MUFC and decided to go to Notts forest.

I agree about Maguire, too slow and never wanted him

Not as slow as Zouma though

Maguire is off anyway so we can go for a younger and faster target.
