Has he gone yet? You could apply the same question to so many. What a mess we are in. And there is the hard faced Koeman in line for a top job at Barcelona having failed with us.
 

He's shown that he isn't good enough or improving, but the fact that some of you even partially base your opinion on him playing football for Everton on how he dresses is dead weird. "I think he focuses too much on fashion" is such a dumb statement. I like the guy just don't think he's good enough, that has nothing to do with what he is wearing.

think cos it can come across like he’s more arsed playing dress up than trying to correct his obvious flaws, Really he should've took a leaf outve his mate Lewins book and bulked up a bit to at least make himself somewhat useful, im not lewins biggest fan but can’t deny he obviously puts in the extra effort in his spare time and it’s paid dividends, few of the other younger more slight players seem to have done the same, meanwhile Davies bounces round looking like a feeble willy wonker

Two midfield signings coming in and Carlo likes Gomes and (apparently) Gbamin :coffee:
 
I'm sorry but I really don't understand why his off-field dressing and spending his money equate to his poor performances? Is it better to stay at home and play FIFA? or are you definitely a better player if you only hang out in Cheshire with other players in their mansions? Or maybe do NOT have social media and therefore never let any fans find out what you're like in private?

I just think that if he's crap, or hasn't kicked on, that's fine, that's different, but surely nothing to do with his off-field behaviour. We have no idea how he trains, how much he trains, and surely his managers and coaches can be the judge of that? Or we dont' trust them with that any more?

Don't like his fashion sense, don't like the way he dresses, where he goes on holiday, his instagram feed - fine, but that shouldn't dictate how we judge him as a footballer.

In his first games he looked fantastic. Clearing balls off the line, getting goals, tackling, skinning people, playing balls behind. One of his coaches came out and said 'Yep, that's a Tom Davies performance.' An all action midfielder, it was like he came from a distant era.

I wonder if it partially has to do with coaching. Central midfielders these days almost always seem to get coached into being varying degrees of Tom Cleverly. Tepid as anything. Shame how he's turned out.

I agree with this more, that his development has coincided with Martinez, Koeman, Allardyce, Unsworth, Silva and now only for one year, Ancelotti, so we have crapped on his development, and its hard luck, but if someone at the club, like Unsworth, or Brands, thinks of how he SHOULD Play to suit his natural style, that is much better. Don't make him a modern day identikit midfielder please,
