2021/22 Lucas Digne

Agree on that, could be frustration from his own performances, he must know himself he isnt doing good enough, im really coming around to a change of scenery needed for him and for us, we need some money in and he is one that could bring in a fee
Me too.

French international. We can expect a decent fee...now that clueless get Brands has gone.
 

It surprises me with Digne. Never had him down as a cry baby.
I for one am glad one of our players had the balls to question the manager's tactics and not just go along with it - if it is the case.

The tactics that saw us go on our poorest run in 22 years, is it?

Nothing that can't be resolved if both parties show a bit of humility. Won't hold my breath with Benitez mind.
 
He's created the second-most chances for us this season (22)

Townsend is top with 29, having played two games more and been given full set-piece duty.
I must be getting old but I seriously can't remember that many!!
Could well believe it in previous seasons but for me he has been poor going forward and more importantly defensively.
 

Difficult one, feels like a bit of a Jesper Blomqvist moment for a new manager, Digne seems like a good skin generally and it’s a problem we do not need but keep him and we could be holding on too long, he’s not getting any better.
 
The modern full back should score goals look at chilwell

He went on a very good run of form and scored more in 4 games than he had in his entire career.

Chelsea also play a wing-back system and their manager actively encourages the wing-backs to get into the box. Our manager and Digne are both on record as saying Benitez's first priority is for his full-backs to defend.

As I said, weird comment.

I know mate but there they are.

Now he's not been in form. I agree with that. He's not been used fully right IMO but that doesn't excuse him - he's been poor.

But I think playing Godfrey or Holgate instead of one of Digne and Coleman is the way forward regardless of if Mina is fit or not. We need solidity. Personally I'd ditch Coleman for the time being as he is worse than Digne

he signed a new long-term deal last season because he was convinced of the direction the club were going in

He's under the deal until 2025 and doesn't want out. He's also a very good player. He's been poor lately, but the system has been all, all wrong.
