His choice of pass, composure in waiting for players and timing of playing the ball is excellent for someone his age. Factor in his education so far at a lower level, I think this kid can go really far. How was he playing at the level he was??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't a criticism of the kid, far from it, hes been absolutely fantastic since coming into the side. He is still very, very raw though, he'd be absolutely brain dead to want to sit on a bench somewhere at this stage of his career. I'm not worried at all about him leaving atm. Get promoted and i don't think the clubs that are considered "bigger than villa" would be interested so there wouldn't be many appealing options anyway. A prolonged spell in the championship would obviously alter my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't seem to out clubbing and doesn't get in the papers in the papers for the wrong reasons. Works his socks off and wears them in the right place. Mr. Davis is he's a talented young man & I wish him the best career possible. Hopefully with Aston Villa. I think the fact he worked his way up the leagues from Biggleswade that he probably realises he got a lucky break and doesnt want go back to that level and has a good attitude. Lucky break in terms of a villa scout seeing him not because of his ability 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't watch the u23's so can't make comment myself, but i do remember last year that even some of our members that watch the youth religiously questioned whether he was ready for the first team. The general consensus was that RHM was way ahead of him in terms of first team readiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I think a lot of his success so fa has been down to his sheer hard work and desire. No doubt he is a talent and a massive physical presence but boy does he put a shift in. It is good to see Bruce is protecting him and taking him off when the time is right. We must not forget his is only 19. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Above all else, coming from the youth set-up (i know we've only had him a couple of years) and working your socks off is money in the bank with the fans.

Popular Post lapal_fan Posted September 27, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2017 Oh look, the lad who's come from nothing is working his arse off, getting games, getting heavily involved and scoring goals. Compare that to the lads we pick up as 10 year olds, demanding and holding out for large contracts despite achieving nothing. Go Davis, Go! Absolutely love it. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he keeps this up the large contracts will come, hopefully his attitude stays the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge breath of fresh air, great attitude and an apparent willingness to actually work on his game. Davis has been so impressive this season - great to see him adding some goals too.

screwdriver Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Pleased he's grabbed a couple of goals as when I first saw him I likened his play to the non scoring threat of danny wellbeck. Great touch back to goal holds it up and has a bit of a dwight yorke drag and go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummybloke Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 It's already been said and it's not an insult, he's our young emile Heskey. Will score a regular 12 to 15 goals per season with the odd 18 goal season thrown in. If he can keep the attitude of heskey throughout his career it will serve him well.
