2020/21 Lucas Digne

[navidson]

Ah well - Season doesn't really mean much anyway

 

[riddick]

I guess the one possible good thing here is that we have Niels as an actual backup instead of nothing for Coleman? Talk about being thrown right into the fray tho...

 

[DaChunk]

We'll be fine mate don't worry

We really wont sadly mate. Dignes role is vital to creating chances.

 

[superkeeper]

What is it with us and long term training ground injuries?

At least we've got cover in Nkounkou

 

[BlueToff]

We'll be fine mate don't worry

Well, it's more that our entire attack is half-based on Digne.

Nkounkou has played well but I get the feeling Carlo doesn't trust him fully yet.

It's a massive knock to us.

'Kin disaster if true

 

[maccavennie]

Oh well, injuries happen.

Nkounkou will now get a chance and I think he'll excel if we continue with the wingback formation.

Small might even find himself on the bench at this rate.

A great chance for Nkounkou though to stake his claim. Opportunities like this very rarely happen.

Its either him or Delph either way.

 

[Bullens Rd]

Kunx got dis.

I bet it was Delph who did Digne in, n'all.

Nkounkou has played well but I get the feeling Carlo doesn't trust him fully yet.

It's a massive knock to us.

He will have to trust him now. I suppose 3 at back will stay for now. Should help Nkounkou and give him
A bit of freedom. Carlo will probably play Delph

Amazing how over rated Nkounkou is on here

Looked good against farmers from the lower league but poor against Newcastle.

Lads got big potential but he's not on the level of Digne and this is a massive blow

But that's not over rating him is it? He's next in line to play left back so that's just how it is.

He's played 1 premier league match where the lot of them were poor. He looked absolutely fine against West Ham in the league cup.

 

[AussieToffee11]

Digne is a massive, massive blow. Significant reason as to why DCL is enjoying his recent form.

The way he links with Richarlison and James is crucial to our attacking play.

Nkonkou is adequate cover, but he couldn't do up Lucas shoelaces.

He was poor against Newcastle, but the team was terrible that day, he made himself available several times and no one had the temerity to thread the pass.

Not sure he looked poor - we just played him really high up but then had nobody getting the ball to him.

But yeah, Digne's a huge miss

No one gets as many injuries on the training ground as we do.

I've not researched this but it feels true.
