Sounds good to me. I do like Digne and Moreno though.

I like them too but he's 22, and they're both the other side of 30.

This is it. Need to move one on, not both (and it'll be a shame). Tough decision too. Digne in better form, but on more money. Not sure what I'd do tbh.

Moreno's over 30? Ageing like a fine wine

Digne generally fitter though.

(not looks wise mind)

I'd be a bit sad seeing him saying "another one" in a Chelsea shirt.

I reckon Digne will be off to Saudi.

They could do with him, Chilwell seems to have had some kind of Stephen Warnock-like regression and Cucurella is utter Blues.

Good signing….Digne did well this season….Moreno on the odd occasion he was fit was pretty average for me

 A statement signing if true.

He will improve the first XI in my opinion and lowers the average age. If we can get onana too then I think we are better than last season even with Luiz, Duran and Tim leaving.

He was named in the CL team of the season. I'd say that's pretty decent.

Saw that on the Chelsea forum, I suppose he'll have to do.

Who do Chelsea have playing at LB that's so good they don't need a CL player of the season?
