Player Watch Player Watch: Ben Davies

[Bluto Blutarsky]

Love this guy. No mess, no fuss, just does his thing. Absolute pro.

Of the old guard - he seems most likely to stick around as a squad player.

A real pro.

 

[easley91]

Another solid performance from him, including a goal saving touch first half. He has deputised well in VDV's absence and in an unnatural position. Deserves respect does Ben.

Of the old guard - he seems most likely to stick around as a squad player.

A real pro.

Was really good today, won loads of headers and played out really well. I make you right above. Calm head needed next to Romero in the same way VDV is.

 

[RuskyM]

Gentle Ben <3

 

[Tucker]

Thought he was very good again today.

 

[HildoSpur]

Unsung hero of the team. Doing a fine job at the back.

 

[Joe Bjorn Hotspur]

Nearly a decade at the club and the pace he showed getting back to deny Isak was immense. He has adapted well especially as VDV’s role is a huge one to fill. Solid performance from steady Ben today.

 

[SlotBadger]

One of his best performances in years.

Without his interception at 0-0, we could be looking at another disappointing result.

On top of that, some of his forward passes from the left side playing the ball inside were lovely.

 

[Erm33]

Top professional and a good performance today. Very important touch at 0-0 that could have made it a very different game.

 

[FinnYid]

Love this guy. No mess, no fuss, just does his thing. Absolute pro.

Can play under any regime and on various positions. Had even good game as wing back under Conte.

 

[bubble07]

Solid. You can see it means a lot to him. Was fuming at FT for no clean sheet

 

[E17yid]

Davies isn’t just a real pro or whatever, he’s actually a good football player believe it or not.

 

[Teemu]

That interception. Love Ben Davies

 

[Crow]

Great shift from Ben today. That touch almost on his own goal line to deny Newcastle a certain goal was brilliant. Good recovery pace too.

 

[delawarespur]

Hi passing has always been my favorite part of his game. All angles and distances. So accurate and secure.

 

[bigfrooj]

What a great game he had today. Bravo sir.

 

[Tucker]

Davies isn’t just a real pro or whatever, he’s actually a good football player believe it or not.

Doesn’t get anywhere near the respect he deserves.

 

[branchie]

Doesn’t get anywhere near the respect he deserves.

Agreed. Especially on here

 

[sparx100]

Played well today albeit against a really blunt Newcastle attack however his intervention in the first half was class.

He has his limitations but he is the consummate professional and deservedly still has a role in this squad.

 

[Cambridge Spur]

Excellent game again. He’s been a brilliant servant to our club.
