Another game closer to the dismissal of Negative Gravyman. Liverpool basically play with wingbacks yet we offered nothing on the flanks, with Walcott not getting a sniff due to the negative midfield and Bolasie being a show pony. Tom Davies has been out of form for weeks yet again he started, don't know what Davy Klassen has to do to get a start! Today was another chance missed to end the run of not beating them but with his tactics of do nothing for 80 minutes and then hope they tire and make mistakes we were never going to win. All in all, same stuff, different day.

i have to stick up for Tom Davies who i thought had a good game today he pressed and used the ball well I'm not sure what else you want a 19 year old to do.

bluey79 I have a 11 year old Grand Son who not only closes players down but can pass the ball through the eye of a needle whether that is into space for the runner or to feet. No magic about it just practice, practice, practice. Young Tom's passing stats today were down around the 50 percent mark, that is quite frankly appalling. The lad is a dynamo but he needs nurturing.

{Ed025's Note - he is young and we have to be patient DFS, not the brightest star in the sky by any means but i still see him as one for the future mate..

Your grandson isn't playing in the prem though is he, against men who are professional footballers. No idea what your comparison is meant to prove.

I want him to merit his place and be in the team due to being in form and deserving that place. Fans are all for the oh he's a young lad and local so let's get behind him even when he's not playing well, but then jump on Martina for every misplaced pass. I like Tom as a player and he is going to be a decent player but ATM he doesn't warrant a first team place, he goes backwards and sideways and gives the ball away too much, its clear his confidence is shot so take him out the firing line. He didn't really have a break in the summer either so maybe that has hindered him too.
