QldVilla Posted June 2, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted June 2, 2022 I wish he was good enough, but he just isn’t. He’s a quality championship player and will do a job for a team looking at promotion, but not a PL player. If Forrest have ambitions of staying in the PL I can’t see them wanting him on the books. Maybe another loan if he proves the doubters wrong then a buy clause at the end of the season, but that’s a stretch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sir_gary_cahill Posted June 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) He creates such debate, for me, he is a fantastic player. If he does leave us permanently for Nottingham Forest or someone else, he will do well wherever he goes. He is at an age where he needs regular first team and an opportunity to showcase his talents. He has a very unique skill set, a great ability to hold up the ball, he’s so close to being a top Premier League striker but he just can’t do the hardest thing to do in football and that is to score goals regularly in the Premier League. This season for Nottingham Forest, he has scored 5 goals in 15 Championship matches and in all competitions, he has scored 5 goals in 21 matches for Forest, he will go on to have a great career Edited June 3, 2022 by sir_gary_cahill 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 If your Forest or any team going up Davis would probably be one of my first signings. Good age. Untapped potential. £10m probably. Get it done and get it done fast. He could be everything Toney was for Brentford this year. His skillset isn't going to change much in the PL. He's an absolutely menace whether it's league 2 or PL. If he stays fit he's a nausance to everyone. Forest are ready to go up. They dont have the structure or the team building. If they stay up they need to play shithouse football. He'd be the absolute first player I'd buy . There isn't anyone close to him you can just get done fast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's necessary. I don't think legally clubs can return players and seek refund if they don't perform as hoped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keinan is not as good as Ollie, and even Ollie has shortcomings to his game to be elite. I am not entering the debate on Suarez, but that was what a fantastic player was, in terms of striker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the hunger you get with Suarez and Vardy aligned with good finishing. Davis has got neither. Hes a decent player but will never be a great one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Him moving to Forest just suits all parties really. Villa get to move on a player that isn't at the level they're aspiring to get to for a relatively decent fee. Forest get a player that the fans have taken to, fits their style of play (particularly if they can get another decent forward player in to replace the distinctly average Zinkernagel and join him and Brennan Johnson up front) and is more suited to being able to help a side whose aspirations don't extend further beyond just avoiding relegation for now. Davis - injury permitting - gets the opportunity to get some first team minutes in the Premier League for a side that really value him and want to build around him. Even purely on a human level I'd be happy for that move to happen. Really seems a good fit for all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 From about 12 mins on with a Forest fan. Haters may as well look away now because the bloke thinks he: - Has brilliant feet, pace and strength. - Has a brilliant finish on him. - Is well worth 15 mill in this modern market. Only thing he thinks he might need to work on, is knowing WHEN to be in the box. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
