pete0 1,376 Report post Posted December 1 29 minutes ago, Bailey said: He seems very reluctant to pass the ball to anyone bar the winger in front of him. He needs to start whipping some early balls into the feet of the striker or an advanced midfield player and then get on his bike rather than lumping a lazy ball forward to the winger. He just looks like a player short on confidence, doing the easy thing rather than the type of play that got him to Bayern and Barca. Managers tactics are mostly play it safe or the wing. Digne is wasted at the moment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chicagoblue 280 Report post Posted December 2 Lucas got beaten by Ricardo at every attempt. Not sure what that was about, but if other teams can do the same we'll be in trouble on the left. 1 Palfy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He did and he was none existent going forward, which was meant to be the thing he was sent out there to do in his wingback role, but he managed achieve the sum of fuck all in any direction.

It's a strange one because before the last 5 or 6 games when the team was looking shite he was a real leader out there and played well for the most part. Maybe he's lost confidence in the manager but something isn't right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
badaids 372 Report post Posted Friday at 18:36 Big drop off in form of late, but no different to any other player... no doubt with the fresh air that a new manager will bring and we’ll see a return to form. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shukes 3,243 Report post Posted Friday at 22:10 Really don’t think he’s been bad at all. It’s more others haven’t made the most of his play. The assist business is a shit stay. It’s only an assist if the recipient can put it away. Has anyone noticed how much Shite fans rate Trent Alexandra? He’s a world beater at the moment. Well Digne isn't far behind with chances created. Yes he’s having a bad season. All it needs is a forward to put a few away and his assists (which are exactly the same) go up in numbers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heath 80 Report post Posted Saturday at 15:03 Hope his injury isn't serious; looked to be a groin strain. We have a full week until our next game, so hopefully that will be enough time for him to recover. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markjazzbassist 2,340 Report post Posted Saturday at 15:10 i hope they give him the United match off. Play Baines and then have him come back for the cup match. He needs a rest injury or not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Palfy 1,778 Report post Posted Saturday at 20:16 I thought he was well off the pace for most of the 1st half and started getting back into it near the end. Then came out in the 2nd and looked more like the Digne we’ve come to love. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
