Let's be honest, Curtis Davies has always been a gobshite. If he played half as good a game as he talked he wouldn't be playing in the fizzy pop league with dog shite fc
Always liked Curtis and, whilst admitting he had the odd nightmare, never understood why people dislike him so much. Some of his performances were way better than anything Clarke has so far produced at centre back, yet the latter is strangely revered by some. However I agree he should talk less.
My lasting memory of Curtis Davies was in that first game of the season against Wigan, where he went to head a long ball from one of their players, and just completely misjudged it and let it sail over his head. When he partnered Carlos Cuellar at centre back, we averaged three goals against for a good dozen or so games.
Big players? Mediocre players for big transfers and big wages. I don't remember us signing players like Henry, Van Persie or Rooney.
