2021/22 Lucas Digne

He’s not in the squad today so its already two . Its ultimately about results , that’ll almost certainly influence whose side we take , that’s football .
it is also about already a weak area in our squad, many games coming up until we have another left back in ,a normally model profiessional who was a certain starter under recently and a transfer fee that is getting lower the longer this spat continues
.
If they had a fall out you leave it for a few days and try to solve it as adults.
If it is beyond repair you agree to part ways in January but for the short term he should be back in the squad at least.
 

Yet is still being selected for games - maybe Digne overstepped the mark?

You dont know.
We know there was a bit of a row, yes.

Digne clearly did overstep the mark in Benitez's opinion.

he dropped him for the Arsenal game to make that point. However, Digne has been in training all week, with the first team. It's not like whatever he said has resulted in him going into the U23s has it - which is what Moyes used to do.

We're one defensive injury or suspension today away from Kenny having to cover.
 
Why aren’t players allowed to challenge a manager anyway? You shouldn’t just sit there and remain quiet if you have something to say.
This 100%

Everton fans love to lay into these players for not caring, yet when they actually do show they care - whether just for professional pride or whatever - they're seen as in the wrong.

Bentiez has won one game in two months. His record is appalling. He's a crap manager. I want him challenged. I actually want him booted as far from the club as possible but unfortunately that's not going to happen.
 
Senior player, vice captain, dares to mention that he's not getting the best out of him due to his tactics having not won a game in 8.

Binned.

Jose school of management

Well Jose and Raffa are two of the most successful managers of our time so maybe there is something in that type of management.

Not everyone likes a hugger/modern type approach - and the players certainly were putting in effort against Arsenal.

Really wasting your time explaining logic here pal.

I think “our time” has a cut off point when it’s been a number of years since he won anything.
 
But why would you ostracise a player ffs?

That doesn't drive their price up.
It’s all smoke and mirrors. A “falling out sale” looks better than “we need to sell to buy”. No doubt digne hasn’t been happy, but it suits both parties.
My guess is that a sale is already agreed and not playing him prevents him from getting injured.
Can you imagine the uproar if they came out and said we are selling Digne, we can’t afford for him to be injured, so he isn’t available for selection.

I mean I personally would appreciate the honesty in that situation. If this was the case, I can’t imagine the club choosing to add more fan pressure onto an unlikeable manager after just giving him control of the club.

Me too, most fans are pitch fork savages though… ?
