Not just a killer goal from the Welshman, but, as with Doherty, another excellent performance, that beat the mean averages in multiple disciplines. Yet Ben Davies is a player that still comes in for casual abuse.
12 Recoveries, 3 in the Stoke half
Aerial duels success 67%
That goal
So when we look at Ben Davies’ net worth to the team against Stoke, the message is a simple one, if we add up the good bits, the outweigh the bad bits. Which makes me feel like I am actually explaining to people what they saw, for them. Which is depressing. I guess the moral of the story is, some folk don’t let the facts get in the way of their feelings. Bless ’em.
