No guarantee Chilwell comes back the same player.

I personally avoid Dest, decent going forward but an absolute disaster when defending.

And yet this system demands attacking fullbacks over defensive ones. Makes no sense we spent the majority of last summer going after Hakimi when he is bang average defensively. 

I'd prefer Dest for the simple fact he has a good attacking output and can play either LWB or RWB.

Everton who are historically a nightmare to deal with are happy to hand him to us on loan?

Red flag right there.

Yes, apparently according to few Everton fans Digne hasn't been the same since his last injury.

Everton still need to comply with FFP. Digne is their joint highest earner on 120kpw.

Dest won't be bad if he isn't a starter, but now with Chilwell out we need a starter material or our season could be over.

After the nightmares we endured with an injured Essien getting injured again following surgery., I'm inclined to agree.

Club should probably consider going all out on a good left back sooner rather than later. Else we'll be taking next season for a gamble as well just hoping he returns to good physical form as well as good footballing form.

Who available in January is starter material? If the club does have someone in mind then we are best recalling either Maatsen or Emerson for the rest of the season.
