Tomaszk Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 Nice touches late on when we actually got it into his feet. Not sure what the answer is, but we aren't getting him into the game enough, and when he's quiet, he also isn't making enough happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 He had a bit of a shocker. Nothjng stuck and wasn’t strong enough. I thought Davis looked a lot better when he came on and might be in contention to start the next game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 It will be forgotten now but he got in to a great position in the first minute but got caught in two minds whether to cross or shoot and ended up doing neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Looks a bit nothing. Can't say a single thing he looks competent at. Confidence is king for strikers but early signs looks like a dud. Some pretty pathetic dive attempts. Room for improvements, sure our scouting team saw something to make them spend such huge money on him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Car crash display. Missed a sitter, wasn't involved much, positioning in the box abysmal, lacking effort and aggression, generally all over the place. 5 games in is enough to pass provisional judgement, so far alarm bells starting to ring. He's not lacking ability, as the Everton game showed, but very concerned at his finishing and positioning. We need goals and whilst he's getting horrific supply from the flanks he needs to do a lot more. Must do better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condimentalist Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Very poor. Lack of movement, didn't work hard enough, couldn't finish. I'm sure he can be a useful part of our squad but we should never have started the season with so much on his shoulders. Kodj could have a big role before January at this rate.

bobzy Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 It’s his hold up play that needs to be better IMO. He seems to go down way too easily. There isn’t much around him generally, but he doesn’t allow us to get up the pitch much. Early days, but he’s got to improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got great options in defence and midfield and nothing to change upfront. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Embarrassing dive at the end. Would rather Kodjia's unpredictability than Wesley's predictable nothing at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaAlex Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Have to agree, Everton aside he has been very poor in every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Yes he was very poor unfortunately. That dive was pretty disgusting at the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 He's not a hold up striker. Expecting him to play like one is pointless. Every average joe fan knows he is a link player and not an out and out forward yet the club decided not to invest in another striker. Mind boggling.

I actually think at this stage Davis would at least put himself about a lot more and do a better job holding it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted September 16, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) Think that was his worst performance by some distance. We can't get him into the game. Frustrating. Still think there is a player there though, I don't think we should be relying on him scoring all our goals though we have little option. Not buying Maupay will cost us big time.
