His biggest flaw is he has zero-zilch pace. That is needed as a FB, moreso anything else.The stick Davies is gettting on here... If you go back a couple of years the same characters would have been giving it out to Danny Rose.
Davies is out of form, low on confidence, and didn't play very well, but there simply aren't many in the PL who have a better reserve LB.
The issue I have with him is that he's such a different type of player to Rose, especially since he started playing at CB for Wales. I really like it in a squad if you have players of similar characteristics to come in for your 1st choices, even if they aren't quite as good. So for Rose, I'd like his understudy to have some pace, be tenacious, and a good engine for getting up and down.
