2020/21 Lucas Digne

[bluerobert]

Always love laughing at the lads that wheel out the "if you've ever played football at any level" thing. Which basically means they played in school and five a side like everyone else.

Or we’ve played Saturday league football, Sunday league football. Even if all you’ve played is school/5 aside you’d know that was dangerous play.

Silver lining for me though is that hopefully nkoukou will be slotted in there for next three games. Let's see if he can play at premier league level. He's more offensively minded than Digne and should offer more attacking/assist wise. Like digne, he seems to be a good crosser too.

 

[maccavennie]

He was poor before the red card

He was absolutely shocking today. That was a 2/10 performance before the red

Lukcily that type of performance is only a couple of times a season from him but boy was that shocking.

 

[samcdavies94]

Is that another 3 game ban there? Or any leniency for it maybe being accidental?

 

[DanB90]

Don’t think it was intentional personally.
If he’d wanted to foul him, he’d have just pulled him by his shirt and took the yellow.

Not sure the appeals committee will see it that way, like.

 

[Zezti]

 

[sladen90]

Don't think you can blame digne. Was totally accidental.

 

[UltraVires]

He's let us down same as Richarlison did the game before.

Two NEEDLESS challenges which will see us drop points and slide down the table.

So no I couldn't care less how Digne or Richarlison feels you do the best for your club or GTF.

Too many of our players not willing to put some fight/press in then hit out when things aint going their way.

Petulance which is making our already injury hit squad more threadbare.

Let’s not let the facts get in the way of a good bedwetting session. It was not a red today for Digne at all.

Richy was naive but he was most likely not match fit and those challenges can happen when you are a bit off the pace.

Our “threadbare” squad is what it is based on poor management in previous years. We are top of the league no matter the result but to call Digne a “prick” which you did is a joke to you and our club. He has been one of our best performers (if not the best) since joining the club and deserves our support

I can't be arsed watching any of that ever again, but I thought it looked accidental. If so, the club should do everything they can to get it rescinded.

If it wasn't, he's cost us big time.

Either way, I think the players need schooling in the mental side of the game as there are definitely a few weaknesses there.

 

[cromofo]

i knew he was gettng sent off as soon as started to run after their player. dumb move

 

[Carloblues]

Take it back it does actually look like he's just running back.

Might even see that red be rescinded.

 

[ValBlue]

Can’t see that being a 3 game ban with it being accidental, don’t see how that can be described as ‘violent conduct’

 

[Ring master]

i knew he was gettng sent off as soon as started to run after their player. dumb move

Thought that as well lol,missed him once, gone back again

 

[LABlue2]

It should be rescinded and wasn't a red

 

[Cels]

Dirty Lucas deserved his red card today against The Saints; knew exactly what he was doing.
