Every time Gana and Schneiderlin play in the same team together we get smoked because neither of them wants to run forward with the ball and be positive. Davies, despite how good or bad you think he is as an individual, makes the midfield work so he starts every game with Gana if fit. The only players who should get in that team ahead of him are a fit Gomes or Sigurdsson if we are playing a more attacking formation. Otherwise Davies starts every game, and preferably with the armband so it winds the clueless people up.
