      Maybe the lad should be given a start alongside Phillips,ya never know he could be the answer at the mo. I know it's all up in the air with the problems of selection and you don't know until you try. just a thought?.

      Yeah, that seems to be the word on the street [backup to Kabak deal]

      Don’t buy that at all since Davies came the day before Kabak.

      Writing him off before he's kicked a ball for us? We can do better than this.

      Don't think anyone's doing that, but judging by the last few team sheets he's clearly the back up player and will sit on the bench while Kabak will start ahead of him.

      and the thing is, Davies' skillset seems to fit the way we play better, if, as reported, he is good at coming out with the ball and has pace.

      I've never seen him play, so not even going to judge.

      I have said a few times I would of played this lad with Philips against Brighton, got Hendo  back in the midfield and use Kabak in champs league games. He could be a player like Robbo that turns it on in the bigger league.

      This comes back to my gripe with Klopp's lack of vision tactically. I would be playing 3 CB's at the moment, Nat, Davies and Kabak, to give maximum protection, to take the pressure off each of the defenders and to get them all up to speed asap. Let them form our defensive unit for the time that remains. That also releases Hendo and Fab back into midfield whilst we can drop Bobby from the team to accommodate the extra CB. It also allows Robbo and Trent more freedom to attack.

      Maybe the Boss is using the same methods he did for Robbo & Fabinho to ease Davies into the team.. from what little I have seen of the lad he looks a quality cb..

      Problem is at the moment were not in the same position to be able to do that. Plus the way Kabak was put straight in blows that theory ;)

      I know Davies had a knock as well around the City game.

      He must be but not what Klopp said in his presser . My mate Preston and he says far better player than Phillips and Williams so baffled if he wasn't injured

      Should be playing now can't remember Kabak being bedded in absolutely no point in signing him Klopp said Williams would go back in U23s yet now in front of him . The lad is a CB 25 ish played all season should  be straight in if good enough

      The signings made in Jan should of been ready to go a CB does not need as much learning tactically as others does his games actual playing not tell us how he can play rather than training

      Kabak coming from the Bundasliga along with international expirience maybe ?

      Davies apparently has had a few niggles and been way off the pace in training

      Just seems a little odd that's all and frustrating especially with the good reports heard

      If he needs time then fair enough but it strikes me as a bit of an odd panic buy on deadline day when we're in March and he's not in the first team squad yet.
