Confirmed Signing Lucas Digne

[andy4efc]

It's preseason, just getting the fitness levels up.

As evidenced by Everton, it's easy to stink the place out during pre-season even though its only pre-season. A strong pre-season campaign for you sir.

I think if for example Danny Rose played for Barca he’d be ripped to shreds by their fans aswel, and he’d have cost us double what Digne did.

So by that logic I’m in.

Buy back clause?

Please please please don't hate me but first player that came to my mind when i saw the handshake was Beresford the old Newcastle full back.

A welcome addition to the club, hopefully showing that M & M are well aware of the areas needing improvement......I still think it may be some time before we see the other parts of the strategy being implemented ie getting rid of Dead wood and replacing them with quality players...Richarlison and Digne is a good start imo

 

[technojoe]

He seems really bright and intelligent. The fact he speaks english too is a huge plus! UTFT

 

[ijjysmith]

Dani Alves is probably the greatest RB ever to play the game and clearly you watched precious little of the player to make an outlandish statement about his defensive contributions

My good god

Just thinking there...

Do you reckon there's potentially a chance that Digne would play LCB with Baines staying put at LB? Obviously depends on what happens with the CB situation in general.

Except that he didn't say that at all though. He never mentioned Walsh and he said that his agent was contacted 2 months ago. Brands was officially appointed just over 2 months ago.
But hey, don't let the facts spoil a good conspiracy

This indicates that transfers is taking time, must be one of the first thing Brand actually took lead on after he started.

Actual left back. Wowzers.

No mate.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

No mate.

Just I keep hearing from Barca fans that he's good at CB as well... maybe part of the reason why we got him was for that flexibility?

Was thinking this the other day. If rumours are right, Silva wants to play 3 at the back. Don’t think that is happening now tho, we didn’t even try it in pre season.
