In the video, Jesse Lingard and Andreas Pereira are seen messing around with the ball, while the rest of the team continue to prepare with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. The Man United duo have been facing intense criticism for their form in the past couple of seasons, particularly in the Premier League. Andreas Pereira has managed to score just once in 23 Premier League games this season. On the other hand, Jesse Lingard has played 20 games but is yet to score for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

I don’t have a problem with players enjoying themselves in training....but I think this was definitely bad timing. Just been left out of a squad, the last thing you’d think they would do is this sorta stuff.

Your think they’d get their heads down and graft.
He has been underperformed yes, but this is too much, leave him alone, he is just playing around.
