Leigh and Ball etc. 15:29 - Sep 25 with 889 viewsFrimleyBlue

Really going to miss him imo these next few months, today showed how we missed his appearence, Davis took the comfort of knowing he;s the only left back available to heart and imo just didn't do anything today.

Ball - think we need to start seeing him, i'm surpised we left both Evans and Morsy on with cards, and think we need to start giving Ball some league time.. I can't imagine it would disturb the flow of the team with his experience.

Davis seemed fine to me. Did he do much wrong?

Imo it's not about what he did wrong, it's more of what he just didn't do.

No backpost runs, no taking on his man to drill crosses in, the one chance he had to float a backpost cross for ladapo he just smashed it.

He's just a different type of LWB to Leigh and he'll rightly have his fans, and that's also why we paid so much money for him, but in our system, imo we need much more of an attacking intent.

I think you have to take into consideration we are playing one of the best teams on their home ground.

First half I thought he did play fairly high up and linked well with the front players.

Thats a big assumption re Davis.

I actually think he'll improve by playing 90 mins most weeks.

I thought he played well, think some maybe expecting too much of him.

I wouldn't say it's expecting to much, I think it's having 2 very different LWB's that he's just such a different type to Leigh you miss what Leigh could bring you that Davis doesn't.

I find Davis an almost perfect Left Back, defensively solid ( albeit a few mishaps) but copes well and support well, he's just not for me a LWB, and today he just didn't bust a gut to get forwards imo.

I think he'll come on leaps and bounds knowing he's not going to be replaced on 60 mins.

...although it looks like KM might do that with KVY.

I thought Davis looked good today. Would’ve liked to see Leigh take over from Edmondson in the LCB role.
