omariqy Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I 100% think him and Kodjia can play together with Kodjia playing from the left. In fact, I think that's his best position. The best thing about Davis is his control. It's so difficult to control the ball, keep hold of it and then find a pass when you have big lumps of defenders taking chunks out of you. He should've scored tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyAnty Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Its good to see a player making it who had to do it the hard way. Young players now a days think they have made it and think they dont have to keep putting in the effort and hard work. Grealish for example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is however more vital to our team right now in the way we play the game. He is, he has more fundamentals and a much more rounded game, this lad is going places whilst there's a reason Kodjia is in the second tier of English football at the age of 28.

That's different. He has the potential to be better. Yes. But Kodjia has scored nearly 40 goals in the last two seasons at this level. Right now Kodjia is better. Kodjia is more skilful and scores more. Right now that is. Davis could be much much better but that's not right now. EDIT: In addition to all that he has 5 goals in 10 games for the Ivory Coast.

I'll change the title later if it turns out the club who pay his wages don't know his name. And it wouldn't be a surprise. #TBT Edited November 2, 2017 by omariqy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carewjust4u Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Fast becoming my favorite villa player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 One thing I noticed and I liked was that everytime he held the ball up and knocked it to a Villa shirt. He went straight for the box which leaves gaps for other players to move into Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted November 2, 2017 Visiting Supporter Share Posted November 2, 2017 Not too many of his ilk around at the moment and no doubt Premiership scouts are already watching so Villa need to sign him up long term especially if promotion isn't achieved this season. Love watching him play and when he learns to finish better Villa will have another Benteke on their hands. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is this guy”. To which his mate replied with “some kid from the youth team”. Mind blown. Why lie, that was you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Willard Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 People are picking who’s more vital or who’s the better footballer. Personally, I’d rather see Kodija and Davis playing together and drop Onomah.... I think that’s our best formation too. 4-4-2 > 4-5-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were already on the case early on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
