He's not even a DM, Gomes, Schneiderlin, and Barry all sat more. If anything he's in the role of the CM and possibly the worst one in the league at that. You come up with some belting comments Pete but you just sound fucking stupid now. All the facts and expert opinion fly in the face of the drivel you are spouting yet you still come out with bollocks like this There are plenty of people who don’t rate Gana, such as Palfy, but none come out with this kind of rubbish Everyone is in agreement that he is limited when on the ball but you can’t even acknowledge that he is great at winning possession , be it by intercepting or tackling. How the flying fuck can he have the stats he does and play in the role he does and not be considered a DM?

Palfy Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 I hope Tom isn’t dropped to the bench on Saturday for Gana to return not because of any views of Gana positive or negative, but because of how he played against Huddersfield, and also because of Gana’s desire to leave. It would surely be a massive kick in the teeth for the lad which he doesn’t deserve after his performance, and even more so be dropped for someone who wanted out that would be hard to take on the chin. And if Silva doesn’t play this right he could cause a split in the dressing room with players feeling Davies has been quite frankly shit on, and the manager has bottled a tough decision in favour of the senior man.

Thought of that option, too. Gomes was pretty useless in the Huddersfield match minus the first 10 minutes or so of the second half. Still think the weekend might be too soon for Gana, but I’m in agreement with you that I don’t think the saga will affect his mentality much for the rest of the season past a week or two.

EFC-Paul Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Gana Davies Bernard Lookman Richarlison Tosun Bernard floating through the middle behind Tosun and Davies sitting deeper, did well enough last time to warrant another start plus Gomes and Sigurdsson haven't been upto scratch lately so a rest may be needed Matt, nyblue23 and Palfy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth looking at we need to try to find something that works on paper our midfield should be good but in reality it’s not working, so keep trying different combinations till something clicks. nyblue23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing good will come out of that. Ganas energitic moves, forward and backwards and to the sides has never been any good to his dm/m partner in our club. If anything, let Gana play that position alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btay Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 Really hope Davies puts in another good, tidy performance. Started thinking he was a bit boring as some mentioned here, average at most things and not spectacular at anything. To his credit he showed some good range of passing and was pushing forward at the right times offering support and runs into the box. Good defensive stats as well. Regardless hes coming up against 2 midfielders who I see him as a similar player in the likes of Neves and Moutinho and I hope Davies and Gomes win the midfield. pete0 and London Blue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 I actually thought he played alright but those 3 in midfield together at the same time, especially with Siggy back to playing off the striker just isnt ideal!

EFC-Paul Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 I don't think he did to badly tbh a fair few wayward passes but he wasn't any worse than the majority out there today The one thing he doesn't suit is being in that midfield with Gomes he's needs to either sit deeper or be paired with Bernard with Gana behind them to see how he fairs Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nogs Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 We have far bigger problems than a 20 year old who should really only be playing off the bench at this stage of his career. EFC-Paul, Matt and Btay 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 Thought he played ok, in a team devoid of confidence. He tried to get us going forward and made some good probing passes. Not the finished article, but did ok in the circumstances. I am beginning to think Siggy is the weak link in terms of his speed of passing and play. pete0, Matt and Blueherts 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
