How you treat players after a decade service is important - if you want any loyalty from younger players they'll definitely notice if you disrespect a senior player who has stuck by you.

How you treat players after a decade service is important - if you want any loyalty from younger players they'll definitely notice if you disrespect a senior player who has stuck by you.
There are only twenty days a season when the stadium is not used.
I think the club has a big opportunity to employ Davies (if he does not want a coaching role) to become some kind of Ambassador not unlike some of the ex- Spurs pros, after all isn't Ledley the next youngest ex-player club representative?
His dedication and loyalty should be rewarded.
In this particular match I think it was. He was getting reckless and was already on a yellow. We scored 3 goals, conceding none after that.
There's a lot to like about Romero, but we all know he has cost us points at times this season.

Think people are going a bit OTT with Davies. Yes a decent cameo but doesn't change the fact that we need to upgrade.
We need to be aiming to get to a point where you are not worried if any of your squad are required to start PL games.
We saw what happened when Davies started against Woolwich last season.
I don't think there is a squad place for him next season if Vuskovic is being kept around.

Udogie had been overlapping all game. There was no tweak.
But he's been overlapping alot more this season. I first noticed it in our opening game against Leicester.
He's definitely mixed it up as opposed to constantly running that inside channel
...Thankfully.
I’d rather trust a proper centre back incoming than some kid who’s played in Belgium for one season at 17. He’s not going to be ready to play centre back in the PL.
On the contrary... That's the perfect scenario to KEEP him around.
...It'd be like what Werner is to Moore right now.
The need to churn that position would be more pressing if Vuskovic ISN'T being kept around next season.
Isn’t Vuskovic effectively a free prem squad place based on his age?
He’s also right footed.
Not initially in the PL but similar to Moore, Bergvall and Gray this season, I expect he will get the cup minutes (especially if we are in the EL again). No way of telling what happens if he impresses there, on paper he looks like being our most promising youngster.
So where does that leave Davies? He would be taking up a squad place and never playing.
His contract expires in the summer so I suspect it is 50/50 as to him staying, unless he has a year's extension like Sonny.
Just seen this. Yep I thought Onana was the best player in the first half. He’s fucking huge
Meant to be a generational player vuskovic. Looking forward to him joining us next seaaon. Hopefully phillips joins the first team as well. Would still like us to sign guehi though.
In the context of yesterdays match, I think it was a blessing and I’m the maniac hatchet man’s biggest admirer.
Neither him or Phillips are likely to make it for Spurs, let’s be honest. Low chance but both have shown massive promise at a young age so fingers crossed
Beautiful I am sure but full of pissrd up Europeans and fat gay blokes, not for us. Staying in the North, much more relaxed.
