Lord Lockin 3,900 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Said last season when Steve Davis got up to speed he was outstanding, made the players round about him play better and that he would run the show this season, seen nothing to change my mind - outstanding today Bearsden bear, Cedrick and Blumhoilann 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jela 20,016 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Need to rap him in bubble rap because there’s nobody there that can do what he can imo. Definitely looks better than he did first time around, so far. Cedrick 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OR it does.... and he’s realised he needs an old head in amongst promising young talent. You don’t need to run around like a headless chicken to make a team tick.

Shows you what a hell of a lot of RM posters know about football. This is a common theme on forums do not look too deep into it Davis imo should be captain he is excellent and born leader.

livibear101 247 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 Kept saying it to my dad towards the end of last season that we are a completely different team with Davis and he wouldn’t believe me seen it again today as soon as he goes off we lost the midfield battle massive player for us this season Cedrick 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears r us 30,560 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 I will wait a bit longer until I agree with what seems the majority opinion, it seems even when he gives the ball away or any other mistake it is ignored, but Jack or other players are savaged for the same thing. Having said that the only thing I am concerned about is 55 and if he contributes to that then that will be great. AlbertzLoyalRSC 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Kamara is better than Arfield but Arfield is the most different to the other players in terms of attacking threat. Aribo looks in a similar vein to Kamara in terms of dribbling ability and turning in tight spaces but possibly offers a better attacking threat. Then there's Jack who I think should be 5th choice but Gerrard likes him and he's been improving lately. It's an absolute headache but a welcome one and it's going to be totally down to form. Personally I would rather a midfield 3 of Davis, Kamara and Aribo with Arfield playing in a wider role until/if Kent comes back. Think Arfield offers more than Jones, Hastie etc and it allows him to drop inside and pack the midfield and play off the striker when need be.
