2022/23 Tom Davies

[PhilRegan]

Personally I’d place him above Doucoure who I think is very overrated.

I agree I think he will look even worse this year.

 

[Ray Purchase]

I don't rate him, but put in a solid performance today.

Well done Tom.

 

[Clarky cat]

Checks in to see if people are hating on Tom today and sees it’s the same footballing genius who immediately announced to everyone on the forum that Anthony Gordon “looks like he’s running in treacle and is league one standard at best”…. Imagine that being your first thought on possibly the quickest player at the club. What a buffoon92 he is.

Another good performance from Tom, so unlucky with his shot.

 

[ArtetaMoney]

Was gutted when I seen him in the starting line up, played well though.

 

[Dixie1sixty]

Played well first half but second his lack of physicality harmed us.

Was absolutely the right sub to switch him with Gana.

 

[Librarian]

Well done, slowly getting his confidence back and oh how the net bulging would have helped him in that respect today

 

[PhilM]

A very good game.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Talent always rises above the naysayers...

 

[roy vernon]

Solid again today Tommy D. He let nobody down.

 

[Mr Happy]

And he's still only young remember. Looked confident like when he burst on scene under Koeman.

 

[buskwhi2]

….he was very decent today, but I got the impression Lampard was very keen to introduce Gueye.

looking at the CM situation, the pecking order is probably;

Onana
Iwobi
Gueye
Garner
Doucoure
Davies
Allan

I doubt we’ll see much of Davies this season.

As a starter, no. But as someone who can inject some energy into the team in the last 15 minutes when others are tiring he’ll more than play a part.
I doubt Allan will be used much so 6 to cover 3 positions seems like a good number.

He should never have been subbed there today. He was our best outfield player up until he was taken off.

 

[Paul Rideout]

100%

actually thought Onana on a yellow was the one going off!

Tom offered so much in offensive pressing in the first half, always playing one touch and finding good pockets of space.

 

[blueblood]

Much better today. Was surprised when he was taken off.

Absolutrely loved the

I did. He should have taken Onana off too. First derby and he looked willing but spent a few minutes after the sub.
