Do not sell him to a rival. Full stop .......
Its already been said but Davies was superb with Laursen alongside him, hence starting 34 times that season.
Its already been said but Davies was superb with Laursen alongside him, hence starting 34 times that season. Alongside anyone else, he felt he had to cover them too and his own game suffered. I have a really bad feeling, again, that this one will come back to ahunt us. He played 49 League games for us, and we will never oficially know the reson he never made it to 50, but i suspect it was a huge payment to Albion and a bigger percentage increase in salary.
I seem to remember that before he signed for us he was being touted as the next Ferdinand and future England defender and captain.
