CONFIRMED Tom Davies signs 3 year deal

[west_yorks_blade]

Journeyman?

Yeah wrong word really - how about 'meh'?

 

[ISZA ⚔️]

Is he any good?

Seems to be a bit of a journeyman, or is that unfair?

We are his second club. Ever. So yeah. The very definition of a journeyman.

 

[ISZA ⚔️]

Yeah read that. Doesn't want publicity for it either.

Just wants to fit in

 

[Houston_Blade]

Seems logical to me, free signing, midfielder, PL experience.

Get him in the u21’s for a few games and then get him in the first team asap.

 

[William Carey]

I’m personally not too keen on this signing, just feels like a gap filler in the midfield, he is championship level at best, if Everton are letting him go who nearly got relegated last season, that says enough. Had bright potential when he was younger but now i’m not too sure. Maybe Hecky and his good coaching team can bring him back to the level he should be at.

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Lots of charity and fashion work.

Bit like when Dele Ali started to do ‘side lines’ and look what happened to him

They tried to get him to sign a new contract but he wanted more playing time. He isn't a cast off.

Same point then. If he was that good then Everton surely would of given him more play time?

 

[blader]

If we continue to look beyond this season I do believe we are building a good foundation for next season in the championship. As negative as it sounds, this squad looks better than the one that went down last time, so it’s a good start for me! He will be a good championship player and hopefully a deputy for hamer this season

Eh??? He’s only EVER played for Everton.
And every youth level of international with England.
Welcome T.Davies

 

[djbaldken]

Wife’s uncle is an Everton season ticket holder. Says the signing could go either way. If his confidence returns, he’s a fine player - to quote him word for word

My Everton mate said more or less same thing.
When he first came in he was very impressive. Everton fans raved about him.Got injured. Crowd got on his back. Lost confidence.
If the initial player he was comes back he'll be a good signing. If not........

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Journeyman?

Hell of a journey from Everton to... Everton.

 

[Flatcap]

Happy with this but must say, I've never heard somebody say they are "full of enthusiasm" with less enthusiasm, before.

 

[secretchief]

Good to know we are signing all the players we wanted to sign when we were a championship team.

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Injured last season, never scores.

He'll fit right in.

Not followed his career at all, so if he honestly is injured at the moment or coming back from a longish injury then I’ll despair at our transfer policy.

 

[Cappy]

Is he only on a 1 year deal? Just picking up on what he said, but maybe I'm misinterpreting

 

[S40BLADE]

Is he only on a 1 year deal? Just picking up on what he said, but maybe I'm misinterpreting

3 year deal announced on twitter.

Sheffield United closing in on former Everton midfielder Tom Davies

The Blades are close to agreeing a deal with former Everton midfielder Tom Davies, who is a free agent after leaving Goodison Park

www.examinerlive.co.uk

wow this would be a great signing imo

 

[S64 Blade]

We know he's big mates with DCL, so I am guessing that may have helped influence his choice.

 

[Stegosaurus]

Hi Stegosaurus here,

Gonna call it---he'll be one of our best players this season and either move to a mid-level PL team (if we go down) or, if we somehow avoid the drop, hell stick with us and get a future England call-up.

 

[corner_flag]

Is he only on a 1 year deal? Just picking up on what he said, but maybe I'm misinterpreting

I think when he said "another year here" he was talking about the Premier League, rather than SUFC. So he's got a realistic view of what he's up against!

 

[MojoMuffin]

Love the part at 1:30 "Hopefully it's a great season for me and Sheff Unit--, erm, United, yeah."

 

[Need4speed]

We can debate the merits and strengths of Doyle, Davies & O Brien but lets for a moment just assume there is not a lot of difference overall then Davies is a no brainer - h he is available and free, Man City want too much for Doyle & Forest will fuck us about over O'Brien

 

[1987]

I think this is a really good signing for us.

Some people express an opinion then there are experts who know very little but like to come across as 'hey, listen to my , knowledgeable opinion '

 

[Scarebus]

Yeah, let's hope we get this one across the line and it doesn't drag on for weeks like always.

 

[Finn Keane o' Balmaqueen]

Is he only on a 1 year deal? Just picking up on what he said, but maybe I'm misinterpreting

1 year in the EPL.

 

[Need4speed]

I have just read the Daily Mail article about Tom Davies https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...g-former-Everton-sensation-Goodison-Park.html Seems to me a sound bloke and thoroughly professional footballer who has left Everton because he wants to play football.
Remember he has been at the Everton shit show, no consistency in management & a horrendous atmosphere & relations with supporters. I back Hecky to manage him properly and get his confidence back into his play.
