2020/21 Lucas Digne

[Toffe3m4n]

Struggled on Saturday. Natural given his injury like, of course, but he'll be up against Adama Traore on Tuesday night and if he continues to get skinned as easily as he did then we'll have issues.

I think Carlo got it right - definitely wasn't up to scratch, but we won the game (as we should) and he got 65 competitive mins.

Will be better for the run. And didn't think the risk, and poor performance outweighed the fitness reward.

Wrong imo .....we had a left back in fact two who played better when he departed......

But you only get match fit by playing matches.

Do it in training matches .....

I'm not sure you're grasping my post.

Or the reality of how a player gets match fit.

We nearly got knocked out of the FA Cup......

Good, would have been a blessing.

Sick of false hope every year!!

I know it was his first game back but he definitely needs Richarlison in front of him to help with the defensive work. Have been critical of Richarlison this year but he puts a shift in defensively and is a big help to Digne.

But we never.

There's a couple of tough premier league games coming up. I can see why Carlo wanted to give him minutes on the pitch.

Great to see that assist. Definitely still very rusty, not doing Godfrey any favours atm.

 

[Amokachi1995]

He’s got there fullback on toast going forward. Hope he has the legs for the second half.

 

[sageyefc]

His crossing is as good as it gets

Such an important player. The difference when he isn't in the side is massive.

 

[Kantareller]

Oh how we've missed him

 

[atypicalusername]

Did great considering not his preferred position. Worked so hard to help Godfrey all game
