2020/21 Tom Davies

[BigDuncTributeBand]

Didn't offer much going forward yet put a goal on the plate for a team mate.

Yes, that was the one time he got in behind and put a ball across the box. Didn’t get close to repeating that threat again, hence didn’t offer much going forward other than that one opportunity. If we’re playing a back three then we need a bit more of a contribution than that from our wingbacks. I wasn’t having a go at him, out of position and was pretty solid. Would have preferred 4 at the back and Kenny given a go whether people think he’s good enough or not, square pegs in square holes.

Back 4, holgate RB, Keane, Godfrey, Niels LB.
Till we either get Coleman fit or bring in a RB in January.

Godfrey hasn’t looked convincing at all so far would rather Keane and Holgate centre back at the moment. Give Kenny a chance at right back until Seamus is fit.

Knew we’d lose when I saw him in the starting eleven.

 

[Lloydystark]

....too heavy legged to play in wide positions. Square peg, round hole.

Put it on a plate for Doucoure

 

[ToffeeTim]

Its no surprise we were far worse when he went off. He had done well at both ends of the pitch. Was solid going back and had created a clear cut chance which should have been a goal.

The decision to take him off is the worst call CA made yesterday.

Put it on a plate for Doucoure

...he did. I suspect that was the only time he got behind their back four, a terrific pass into him and he did well picking Doucoure out.

I’m just saying that position lends itself to mobility and pace, I don’t blame Tom Davies I just don’t understand the logic of playing him in a wide position when he’s likely to be impotent from an attacking perspective and vulnerable defensively.

Yeh I agree it’s a bizarre choice to play him there especially as Iwobi did well there the week before. I have no idea why kenny isn’t RWB and nkoukou at LWB

Get shut of him, but having said that he had a decent game yesterday.

 

[Cels]

I thought Tom Davies did well against Leeds considering our pick 'n' mix approach to the game. At one point, I'm almost certain I even saw him win a tackle.

Get a mop cut and do your back to school ad verts .

Usually does despite what the haters say. A valuable squad member and about 10 others should be punted before him

 

[Frenk]

A player who I had high hopes for at the beginning of his career, now it’s obvious he doesn’t fit, not good enough, get rid for the clubs sake and for the players benefit.

 

[Pat Butcher]

He's still 22 and I think he can do a decent job for us, as an emergency right back or just told to sit infront of defence

Id much rather keep.him in and around the squad than some of the guff we have, he is also club trained which is good to have

 

[Toffe3m4n]

What's his preferred position?

This many years on and I'm still not even 100% on that. If it's CM then is it attacking or defensive?
