I'd be hugely surprised if that happens. Cash's delivery isn't quite as good, but then he brings other attributes such as athleticism and the ability to get up and down the pitch at speed. Personally I think he'll be one of the last players to be upgraded.

Reading the match thread on RAWK, in between moaning about Jon Moss (I know) and how much we hate them, Cash was the one player they said they wouldn't mind signing from us.

Settling in now and although there was some debate of Target not being lesser quality than him what LD offers in attack, delivery and shooting think he will impress next season with right midfielders around him.
Plays the left back role Gerrard wants and did well enough today v tricky Palace team.

I get it with Digne now.

I was worried that he didn't really offer much more than we already had, as he took a while to get going, but the last week or so he has been very good. He's not as quick as I'd like, but he has real quality on the ball and his first touch is excellent, which gives him that split second extra.

A full pre-season and I'm sure he will be a very important player for us next year.

I said pretty much the same to my mate yesterday, without any disrespect to Targett who I rate, he's clearly a significant upgrade. More of this sort of thing please.

Digne 3 assists in 14 games shows his abilities and what he offers.

That's the same number of assists as Cash (36 matches), McGinn (33 matches) and Luiz (29 matches ,2 sub)who have all made 3 assists but in lot more game time.

How many did Targett get in his time at Villa? I remember a most satisfying last-gasp winner against Brighton at VP in autumn 2019.

Tigs also got the important first goal against Leicester in the cup semi-final.

He also notched one in Gerrard's first away game.

Digne is likely to be starting for France against Croatia. Deschamps is having a shuffle of the pack after losing to Denmark.

Any sign of Boubbaca getting a look in?

Am I right in thinking this player had to leave the pitch to remove his ear-rings at the time we conceded the first goal? Unprofessional if that's the case and embarrassing!

Having to go off to get your cock ring off and seeing us concede while it is happening is grotesquely unprofessional.

I like Digne but I hope Gerrard fines him to the hilt for this, absolutely laughable

He'll probably fine Mings.
