Day Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 “The fact that he is fresh from his playing career means he is still in touch with the modern game and his punditry stuff means he has been watching a lot of games and people play,” said Davies. “I think he is well in touch and a good addition to this football club. It’s going to be Frank’s first job managing football but he brings a winning mentality from his playing days. “It’s going to be exciting times and I’m looking forward to getting going and seeing what the manager’s plans are.” Full interview: https://www.dcfc.co.uk/amp/news/2018/06/davies-excited-to-start-work-with-lampard?__twitter_impression=true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HariboWest Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 If the offer did get tabled from Stoke, I know which manager I'd be more inspired by. Curtis ain't going anywhere, and we are moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaspode Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Issue is whether Stoke (or anyone else) comes in with a bid that's big enough to tempt us - Davies obviously had a great season with us last year so there's no reason for him to want to go to the armpit known as Stoke (other than a huge payrise), but I suspect it will all be down to finances (same as with Carson and Vyds). As far a Stoke go, I read that Rowett is now back from is Hols and talking to their chairman regarding transfer targets, so they won't have bid yet, but may do soon if he considers Davies as an upgrade on their current centre-halves....

Alph Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Find interviews in football quite tedious most the time. In most sports it's tedious but at least in boxing an F1 they can be amateurish and diva-ish respectively. Ask any question to any player/manager and you get like a 3 variations in the answer.

minesahartington Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 i got the impression (rightly or wrongly) over the past few months of the season that Davies was frustrated, not just with the results but also with the style of play. I just don`t see him wanting to experience more of the same at this stage of his career. Bringing on pressure at his age is not healthy. Hes a family guy. Stoke?? Really??

He ended the season as captain, Lampard has not said who is captain will be for the new season. Ergo Davies remains captain by default until Lampard says otherwise or he is sold.
