Yes Digne does. Emery seemed keen to get rid of Digne last season, but to Digne's credit, he's impressed Emery enough. Some real competition at left back for us, same can't be said at right back currently.

The BBC have produced a list of players who are probably on the move before the end of the month:

In terms of Aston Villa, it seems almost certain that Alex Moreno is leaving.
I thought Moreno had already joined Como to join their set of veterans (Varane, Belotti, Pepe Reina). The coach is Fabregas so will be interesting to see how they get on back in Serie A.
OK I got the wrong Moreno! The Como Moreno is Alberto who used to play for Liverpool

Soooo what happens now with Sterling and Chilwell? I can see them both spending considerable amounts of time twiddling their thumbs.

Ilkay Gundogan has moved back to Man City from Barcelona.

What a miss by Watkins. What a save by Raya.
Watkins had a shocker out there. He's had an awful start to the season.

Liverpool have bought the Georgina keeper, Mamardashvili from Valencia. Not sure he'll play ahead of Allison though.

was meant to come to Bournemouth on loan via Liverpool when this transfer was mooted months ago but problems with his manager meant that didn't happen..so as they do, Bournemouth have pivoted
and will announce Kepa on loan officially from today, probably would have preferred Mamardashvili, but its still a big name get for a smaller club. Neto will certainly be challenged for number 1 spot now

@bayimports There is something not quite right about bringing in a goalkeeper on loan when they have Alex Paulsen, one of their own contracted keepers, out on loan at Auckland FC.

It's looking more and more like a scam to take one of the Nix's best players and move him to Auckland

Federico Chiesa is joining Liverpool from Juventus.

Paulsen was never a chance at keeper 1 or 2 this year, longer term possibly. EPL, La Liga and Champions League experience is considered a little higher.. Who would have thought a business would ever consider that?

The new champions league model strikes me as a load of crap. Not at all interested. Will watch once we are down to a small number of teams in knockout stages. Think this will not prove popular but we see.

I'll give it a chance but it looks like just an excuse to shoehorn more games in. 8 group games instead of 6 and then the climax to the group is at the end of January so weather could be a factor. Then another 2 extra games if you finish in positions 9-24 just to get to a last 16. At least the 8 groups of 4 led to a little drama for qualification.

Federico Chiesa is joining Liverpool from Juventus.
Thought he was gonna be one of the best players in the world when I first saw him play for Fiorentina. Now he's just always injured.
-
@Billy-Tell The main arguments for the change seem to be more games between big teams from the start and more teams involved.
The down side is that the new format is confusing and there will be lots of games between teams well down the league.
I suspect we will see a version of the old format restored in a year or two.
