i think he is a blue, would have stayed here but for family / love life.

i always said he was like raheem sterling but could play football and has hell of a shot on him !

come back leroy leroy leroy
I thought his missus wanted to stay.
 
Did that at 4-0 down. Got cooked by bernardo in the first leg when it mattered and got himself hauled off and dropped. He’d be the same as cancelo. Helps us win games we’d win anyway but then when under pressure from a quality winger cant lock it down
Mate, that's doing City & Bernardo a disservice. We were simply brilliant in that match, Bernardo especially so.

However, as someone pointed out yesterday, whilst Bernardo megged him & took the piss, rarely did it ever result in Bernardo making a killer pass or a telling shot, as Davies always recovered forcing Bernardo back.

He showed examples & pointed out something we all missed. Yes Bernardo dealt with him in the first instance, but Davies kept coming back & rectifying the situation.

Look at the difference he made when he replaced Cancelo? We know what Cancelo can do, but Davies has a different skill set which is what we're seriously lacking in as Pep said a few weeks ago.

I'd love a straight swap with Davies & Cancelo.
 
He made an immediate impact replacing Cancelo. I've never seen anyone burn Akanji off for pace the way Davies did last night.

Then Grealish was favourite for a late ball played into the area, & I've no idea how Davies made up the metres to beat Jack, who's no slouch himself.

Apparently he's entering the final year of his contract & we're in need of a top level left back. I'd swap him for Cancelo in a heartbeat.

Plus, as great as he's been this season, Ake was getting totally done for pace by Coman in the first half. Not a chance he does that against Davies.

Ake's lack of pace at the very top end of football was exposed last night. Coman had him on toast. It wouldn't surprise me if Aké's injury was twisted blood, it was that bad at times. HOWEVER Aké stood strong, albeit was a Hurculean struggle for him.

Agreed, I couldn't see Coman so easily twisting Davies inside out, & with a player like him in our squad, Aké could return to his best position as a Centre Back. Getting a specialist Left Back must be a priority for City this summer.

Just imagine a defence with Walker & Davies as full backs? We saw the damage Real did to us last season after Walker went off.

Rodrygo & Vini Jnr tortured Cancelo & Zinchenko especially. That ain't happening if we had those two as our full backs...
