2021/22 Lucas Digne

[kenada_blue]

Chilwell, Robertson, Shaw, Cancelo and Tierney are all better than him. You could argue Reguilon and Alonso are too but I’d say at his best (last seen September 2020) Digne is better than those two and the rest of the dross in the league. I’d put him 6th on the list.

Tierney is always turbo-crocked though so would put him 5th.

Would drop Shaw down too because he had one good season (last year) and is still fighting Tellas for his spot.

You were right on VVD

He'd be playing for City right now if we'd signed him like, but at least he would have swerved the RS and probably cost them one of the two trophies he helped win for them

Good luck to him at his next club. Pretty poor over the last year or so.

 

[Toast]

It is.

But while we've got Mina and Gomes on £100k a week, Delph abar £90k and hardly playing, it's not exactly helping

Digne, Mina, Gomes..

The players we sign from Barca we make very wealthy individuals.

Rebel without a place.

Welcome Vitaliy.

 

[Terrarian]

I've no problem with any player being sold(especially from this group) it's football, as long as replacements are equal to/better than and that's an area we are a bit naff at. We've sold a lot of good players recently and look what we spent the money on, it's soul destroying.

Welcome Vitaliy.

Read that as vitality then, for a minute there I thought you were on the klopp juice Dave ha.

 

[ToffeeTime]

Curious the groups thoughts on what clubs might even have the $ for a good fee, and, view Lucas as an upgrade. I’m afraid it might be a tricky one to get a good fee for a player between good/great, and just starting to get on in age, given the current financial landscape. Thoughts?

I'm willing to suspend judgment until we see what else Benitez has up his sleeve.

A cheese and bacon sandwich!

A cheese and bacon sandwich!

Undoubtedly, but not exactly what I meant.

Let the bidding commence….

Getting rid of one of our best players to appease a fat former Liverpool coach. Everton that!

What is the point of having him when he is not delivering? I am talking about Digne. He is probably too good for this team and futhermore he is a sellable asset, a world class player still.

We should be building the team round our best players, not flogging them off!

The past few years have really made me realise how good Bainsey was. not world class be just a rung below i think. Magician
