2020/21 Tom Davies

[Lloydystark]

He's really tried in the last couple of games, but it is evident that he offers very little in terms of creativity or goals from midfield.

Tom's first instinct is to always go sideways or backwards.

He's a boring, average player, and won't get near our starting 11, when all are fit.

His job is more of a defensive midfielder, he always offers a pass when the defence have the ball and gets stuck in, he ain’t going to set the world alight

If we play him on Saturday he is cup tied, that might knock a few million of his value for the end of the window panic buyers

Understatement of 2021 thus far.

 

[sageyefc]

He is Sheffield United, Crystal Palace, West Ham, Brighton quality.

Yes he can compete in the league, but he will never, ever, turn us into a permanent European side.

And for that reason alone, I'd be happy to move him on at the earliest convenience.

We don't have the time to carry passengers who can put in a 5/10 shift every now and then.

Sadly he gets nowhere near the palace or West Ham midfields which says it all

But, he does get in the Everton team and we are ahead of all of them in the league.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Absolutely should not be sold in the January window. He gets in our strongest first 11 until Allan is fit.

That is only because of injuries.
Before that there where games he never even made the bench.

So he'll be worth -1million quid?

 

[AussieToffee11]

Absolutely should not be sold in the January window. He gets in our strongest first 11 until Allan is fit.

And if that is the case, and we don't get another body in during the January window, then we don't have the quality to finish in the Top 6.

He is a ripping bloke and he tries, but he is not a player, starter or depth, that will ever allow us to achieve European qualification.

What an ironic quandry. No team that finds itself needing Tom Davies can afford to sell Tom Davies. Evaluations of him, positive and negative, are the definition of confirmation bias.

I'm Team Tom simply because his dress sense seems to infuriate people who've spent the last 5 years taking style tips from Peaky Blinders. The sort of horrors who have their side parting shaved in.

surely that's going to be the job of Stickle Bricks Legs Gbamin when fit?? so we look to sell sometime in 2025

 

[witchdoc187]

thought he played well against someone recently.

 

[banno]

When a player is at the correct level you remember his stinkers and when a player is not up to the level you remember his good games. For me Davies had good games against Man City and Sheff utd a good few meh games and the rest stinkers

 

[ArtetaMoney]

imagine if it was tom with those stats he'd be hung literally

TAA has won the league and champions league while providing double figures assists, if Davies had helped us do the same we’d forgive him for his poor performances.

Tom Davies is part of the core of players that are not for sale.
The squad that we have of players the manager wants to keep is not that big and we have seen with injuries how easily that squad can be stretched.

I think we would listen to offers for Kenny, Delph, Bolasie, Besic, Tosun, Kean but I doubt we are open to selling anybody else unless silly money is offered.
