Everton fans react to Tom Davies’ display in Sheffield United win

Add as preferred source on Google

Everton fans have been raving about the performance of midfielder Tom Davies in this evening’s clash with Sheffield United. 

The Toffees won 1-0 against the Blades in what was a drab fixture in the rain at Bramall Lane. 

Not many players from either team impressed significantly but for Everton, midfielder Davies certainly looked the part. 

The 22-year-old slotted in nicely alongside Abdoulaye Doucoure and put in a fine display. Davies was smart with his passing, strong in the tackle, and rarely gave possession away in a strong display. 

Everton fans have often been critical of the England under-21 star. He was given considerable criticism after giving away a reckless penalty against Arsenal in his previous Premier League outing.

Davies often lets games pass him by but in the absence of Allan he stood tall before coming off for Andre Gomes with a quarter of the game remaining. 

It was a strong performance for a player who has often found himself the target of Evertonian ire. Hopefully, it is just the start of an extended period of good form for the midfield talent.
