He got completely done on the inside by Matty Cash this season off the top of my head, that was an error leading to a goal. He gave away a needless free kick on the edge of the area that led to Millwall’s winning/equalising goal in that infamous game. This is why I think stats are complete nonsense.

Past caring now. Just get the rodent out.
Put some cheese outside FF and lock the gates.
Yeah weird isn’t it. Not every piece of poor defending is captured in the stats, in fact hardly any are really. Everyone looks a decent defender on a spreadsheet.

Improve it how ?
Let's be honest the defensive side of his game was not why he was bought and that's there for all to see
The manager was never my first choice but enough is enough.
We need direction right now and a song sheet we all sing from.
Moyes type if you like. And I wanted him gone before he [Poor language removed] on us to be fair.

Forget the drama lads, we've had a decent LB in Digne for a few years now, he's at an age now were this value will likely only decrease. Mykolenko and Patterson combined will be on less wages than Digne, if we can recoup most of the ~30 mil we spent on the pair of them then it's very good business.
Only thing I will say is that Benitez is an idiot for making any of this public because it weakens our stance at the negotiating table for Digne's next club.

What I took from it was Benitez was saying Digne was complaining about his stats (probably because he wants to stay in the national side) and Benitez is saying your stats don't matter for a team that's finished 12th and 10th. I.e. it's not like your stats are winning trophies. Your stats can be sacrificed if it means moving up the table to more meaningful positions. So Digne has thrown his toys out of the pram in self interest rather than putting ego, national team and stats aside to help us get results. I could be wrong but that's how I took what he was saying. If I've interpreted correctly then Digne needs to go 100%
I think he'll be a good signing but defensively he'll make us realise that Digne is actually very consistent.
That's because Mykolenko is young and comes from a weaker league. He'll need time.
People have this idea that he's aggressive but based on the data which is all I have to go off because I've never watched him play properly, he doesn't really have the stats that an aggressive defender would do (which is a lot of duels (like Digne), a lot of attempted tackles (like Digne). It'll be based on some stupid concept that Ukrainian players are all from war-torn villages and orphaned by the age of 5.
My main criticism of Digne's defending has been he's been a bit too culpable of lunging in at times, especially recently, though he has been isolated 1v1 A LOT in the Benitez system, and that's probably where Digne's main flaw is when defending.

I don't often agree with Dave and I know he's very prone to exaggerate his points.. but what has he actually said there that is inaccurate?
has he possibly been let down by a crap midfield?

Apart from making up statements that we have absolutely no idea we’re actually made?
