We need to make the defence less leaky. I don't even think a LB is the problem personally I think it is centre mid but this thread is about Ben Davies and with regards to him I'd say yes sign him he's better than Papa and he's better than Ward so he'd be our best full back. Simple. Edited by Hudsoneagle (08 Jan 2017 9.15pm)

I would, based on what I've seen for Swansea and Wales. As I said much earlier, defensively much better than Souare and overall an upgrade.

1. Konstantin Rausch Probably in this order, not necessarily of value, but because of price-quality ratio. You've been playing too much Football Manager mate. Although maybe Augustinsson...I do wonder if he'd do well in the Prem. That's a good shout for us. Edited by Hudsoneagle (08 Jan 2017 9.26pm)

Edited by Hudsoneagle (08 Jan 2017 9.26pm) Please don't try to be smart. I just know much about football players. Accept it or ignore me, your choice.

Since you have now resorted to abuse, you presumably now agree. The only one who looks like a ***** is you. HTH. Edited by chateauferret (09 Jan 2017 1.37am)

Tell me what do you prefer from a fullback in 1 season: to make 5 BIG mistakes and to contribute to 10-12 goals? Or to make NO mistakes but contribute to NO goals? Since the 3 point for victory rule exists, I think it's better to win 5 games and to lose 5, than to draw 10. Ben Davies might get you to draw 10 (actually he's not rock solid in the defensive either). How many full backs can you name who have had 10-12 goals/assists in a season? Unless you're the penalty taker (Baines/Unsworth/Irwin) it's not easy. Good player in my opinion, still young and will improve with more games. Would be an ideal sighing for us

Think the whole defense is leaking because of our use of a right footed player on the left and CD (Kelly) on the right. A proven leftie on the left, Wardy on right and defense probably get their confidence back. I hope...

What's going to happen after Zaha leaves/is sold? You have to build to make this team a better team. Yes, I understand. You want to escape relegation. But it makes you scared and illogical. You're not getting a player for these 17 games. Ben Davies MIGHT or MIGHT NOT be good defensively in those 17 games and help save Palace from relegation. But what after? He'll CERTAINLY be of no contribution in attack in the next seasons. When Zaha leaves, if another player doesn't fill in well, you'll still be playing with Ward and Ben Davies as fullbacks and eventually, in another year or 2, EVENTUALLY, the team will still go down. It's not just about keeping the team up this year. You have to think of the future. This team has to progress, to bring players that can make it progress. To make the team a traditional contender to the top 7 in the next 5 years. Palace needs to get an all-round good player, not just one good defensively. Edited by mattteo (09 Jan 2017 12.55pm)
