Curtis Davies

[Rip Van We Go Again]

As Karl says, he'd been putting it about previously about how shit MON was.
He was talking to a friend of mine in the Shakespeare and couldn't say enough bad things about him.

Look in the mirror time, Curtis.

[1958Villan]

Curtis Davies is a championship defensive player at best. He undoubtedly has some footballing skills, its a pity he doesn't have a footballing brain to go with them, at the highest level anyway. Championship football is the highest level he will attain where he will look good.
By the way that Rapid game isn't the only one where he  has done something like that. He has a habit, even at the lower levels, of doing the unexpectedly stupid thing.

[ktvillan]

You can hardly blame Curtis for not exactly being a fan of O'Neill, the way he was treated afer playing through injury for him.  His major fault if anything is to be too open and honest with his opinions, and probably not the best thing to do to be letting off steam in public.

As for only being a championship player, I think you will be proved wrong on that one 1958Villan.

When is Curtis due back ??

[jonzy85]

I think he showed in the season he was alongside Laursen, he has the capability of being a top defender. Whether he will reach those heights again remains to be seen and i am very sceptical about it being in a Villa shirt.

Curtis has just been pure unlucky. He got injured and we signed Collins and Dunne, who were so good last year he was never going to get a sniff.

When is Curtis due back ??

He is back from Leicester on 4th January, he has rejected an approach to sign permanently for them. Does that 50 match in the Premier league clause exist? He has been on 49 apps for ages.

[Clampy]

He was doing well until he got injured. I remember when we beat Arsenal down at the Emirates a couple of seasons back and he was absolutley superb that day. We've got a decent centre half there, he deserves another chance to win his place back me thinks.

[eastie]

He may have a way back in with the way dunne has been acting this season- I would have another look at him between now and may and see how Curtis does - the door should not be shut yet on him!

[Shrek]

Well if he has got a clause, let's ask him to remove it, if he says no sell him.

[Villa'Zawg]

Well if he has got a clause, let's ask him to remove it, if he says no sell him.

It is WBA that has a clause on the contract.

[Clampy]

Well if he has got a clause, let's ask him to remove it, if he says no sell him.

I disagree to be honest. If the club agreed to it in the first place, then why should'nt we honour it?

[TheSandman]

Why would a contract clause include games played during a loan spell? Also don't these clauses generally include appearances in all competitions?

[Clark W Griswold]

He's shite.

[LeeB]

He's shite.

I'd have to agree. Let's just move him and fatty on.

[villa1]

Keep him and give him a run in the side. He's shown in the past there's something there.
