2017/18 Tom Davies

Proper player this lad, he will have his bad spells, he is still learning his trade, but, he is going to be a fabulous player. We really need to tie him and Calvert Lewin to very long contracts and build around them and Pickford.

They're both in 1st year of new 5 yr contracts

Has to play in all the prem games when fit. Drives the tempo of the whole team.

He's going to lack consistency given his age, but he is a great prospect but I wouldn't want to see him starting every week, too young.

No he doesn't and shouldn't. He started a game a few weeks ago and was rubbish. He is a kid, will have massive fluctuations in form and frustrate the hell out of us. He is a gem but lets leave him to develop in his own time without piling the pressure on him by demanding he starts every week.

 

[Bagpuss]

What I was trying to say is that he is the one who gets the team playing at the pace we should be playing at and think it's a waste to have him playing in Europe where we have enough plodders. I think he should be playing in the prem games where tempo is more important. I agree he will suffer lapses in form and when he does should be protected. Didn't phrase my initial post as it sounded in my head.

3 assists for Niasse in 2 games, if they're both in form they have to start

This. There are some right stupid shouts going on on twitter right now. Well, there always is, but more then usual.

Brilliant assist for Niasse yesterday.

Still needs experience to become more consistent, which is why it's great we're in three competitions.

 

[GwladysBlue]

He makes us tick.

 

[leslad]

Fabregas-esque yesterday. Superb through ball, it was in Niasse's path almost before anyone else even saw the pass was an option.

 

[thirdmantackle]

I loved the little fake 'show' he did on the pass to Niasse - as if he was going to pass it out wide, then just threaded the ball through
well played sir, well played

Shut up Tom.

Great pass for Oumar's first btw.

I'm from a long line of evertonians and over very many years I've heard lots of guff and loads of sensible ideas.
I've found tonight somewhere in my house the old Rotherams football book from 1968 (could be wrong on the year) but they promoted a feature on big joe role at the time , i think it was named. ...... " If your good enough, your old enough"

That's the way it should happen, just look at Kane, Ali, Ronaldo, Rooney in their youth.. it's time to have Davis, Kenny, Niasse and to be honest anyone who makes us play better right into the team.
No passengers anymore Ronald, time to grow up and go with what's gonna work....


Do us well ya crazy dutchman

Earned his place as a starter in this team now.

Football is really is a simple game. Passing the ball forwards and running with the ball seem such obvious qualities but have been neglected by RK. Tom does both.
