Jesse Lingard: A fall from grace for the Manchester United star
A non-league club like Corby Town FC taking a dig at Manchester United and Jesse Lingard shows how far the mighty Red Devils have fallen. Corby Town FC play in the Southern Football League Division One Central, seven divisions lower than the Premier League, where Manchester United play. Despite these differences, Corby Town FC still mocked Lingard and his poor performance over the past season.
Lingard has faced a lot of flak from fans in the past year for his dreadful performances and was even dropped from England’s national team squad. Jesse Lingard has featured for Manchester United in 18 Premier League games this season, picking up three yellow cards.
