Player Ben Davies

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

First class individual who has served the club well in multiple positions for many years, but as an Angeball CB at this stage of his career he's absolutely hopeless and we'd be mad to sign him to a new deal if indeed Ange is here to stay (or if any manager wants to play comparable high line tactics)
I agree.

Just a bit sad that after 10 years he may just disappear. Perhaps something can be done in the pre season games.

Totally undervalued by so many fans. You can't have 20 odd superstars, just doesn't work like that. It's men like Ben Davies that keep everything going in the background. I'd say he's been fantastic in the dressing room in the tough times and a large part of why the kids like Archie and Lucas have settled well.
As well as being ultra dependable when called on and very rarely injured.

Agree you don't need 20 superstars but you can't have someone taking up a squad place because he's a good lad around the dressing room.

The likes of Milner and Henderson were similar characters but ALSO key figures in their respective successful teams.

"Ultra dependable" is very dubious at this stage. Sure, he's be okay against early FA Cup/ Europa League dross but next season we are in the Champions League. I don't want to see Ben Davies starting against any top 15 PL side or any CL side.
 
Has to go to a club that plays with a back three. It's basically the only formation where he could do a job, even in the prem. Good luck to him. Always a reliable servant.
