Isaak Davies...

Re: Isaak Davies...

The cross Davies made was an absolute peach in every respect. Weighted and sat up beautifully, perfect. Let's not get too carried away though. These lads are just starting out and have been put in a difficult position. Some will thrive, some wont. Colwill is great facing the opposition goal in the final third, but shows his lack of experience when he has to defend or play a simple ball. It'll come, but they need time and patience.

They'll have star performances and some stinkers, it's all about how we as fans let them make the inevitable errors (that established pros make) and let them grow. Let's give them a chance and not hound them over silly mistakes. Obviously people are entitled to their opinions but it would be nice to see them given some space to grow.

Re: Isaak Davies...

Just been looking at the last 10 minutes of Huddersfield game and wondering if young Davies is destined to become the best of the youngsters to emerge this season.

In the two critical pieces of action he was involved in, he showed the confidence, determination, pace and composure to create what hasn't happened to the team in the previous two months.

He did it again, today - produced the only get-off-your-seat action in the time City had 11 on the field.

His old man is from Aberfan. Top fella. Couldn’t meet a more down to earth guy.

Re: Isaak Davies...

Really like the look of him.
That first half run and shot yesterday was sublime.
If that goes in he is a crowd hero overnight.

He's a bit lightweight and may get bullied a bit in this league but he causes all kinds of problems with his pace and low centre of gravity.

Should be a shoe-in to start next game IMO.

He played a heavy touch at the start of the game, I thought he was going to get ballooned off the ball but he held his own.

He could definitely use some strength conditioning but I think he will find a way to play in this league too, more games he plays the less games will feel lightning pace to him and he will settle in.

Not sure if it was his Mother or Fathers old man but I used to sit next to his grandad in the family stand and he was the same, really nice fella from mountain Ash.

Agree.
The way we have been trying to play helps too. He wouldn't have got a kick under MM.

Yeah can definitely see why he didn't play more sooner!! I would much rather see a few too many passes than some would like to eventually see a moment like he produced, than see us hoof it aimlessly upfield. We lost yesterday but I've enjoyed every game under the new manager.

Re: Isaak Davies...

Has he been called up to train with the Senior Wales Squad yet?

He looks class.

What’s the old man name?

His old mans name is Andrew but they call him Dai.

His grandfather is Colin Davies.

In fairness wasn't Mick going to give him his debut last season but he got injured?

But you're right, I doubt he'd have made much impact with the ball being hoofed 10ft above his head!
