He was told what the former Manchester United playmaker was now earning at the newly-promoted outfit, to which he replied (as per ): “I earned that in three years, him in a week. Times are changing.

Pundit believes former Manchester United star needs more help at new club

Forest have not particularly covered themselves in glory since their return to the top-flight for the first time in 23 years. They sit bottom of the table with nine points from 13 games. While Kevin Campbell believes Lingard should be creating more, the former Manchester United star needs more help from his new teammates. The former forward told : "But the key to all of this was how do Nottingham Forest adapt to being in the Premier League. They've not been in the Premier League for 20+ years and it was always going to be how they adapt." Campbell claimed that Lingard needs support from his teammates at Nottingham and claimed that he will eventually come good. He said: "Now, Jesse Lingard knows how to play in the Premier League, and I do think he'll come good and be more influential as the season goes on. But he needs the supporting cast to help in and if we're being honest, Nottingham Forest have been all over the place." He added: "As a team and a squad, they haven't been consistent in a good way, they've been consistently inconsistent. For Jesse Lingard to get a platform to deliver performances, he needs a supporting cast with him."Jesse Lingard might be the only player signed on a free that wasn’t worth the money.Jesse Lingard might be the only player signed on a free that wasn’t worth the money.
