Ben Davies

IMO he's our Denis Irwin - unfashionable player as he's not at all flashy but is generally very solid and just gets on with his job.

Diolch, Ben!!

I feel the same way. But what is it that makes him seem not flashy I wonder? He does have 2 goals and 6 assists in 25 starts this season, after all!

Guess it's just that he doesn't really dribble or try and use skill? And is a little slow for a full-back?

I love him - he needs and deserves a song.

I totally agree.
But one of the things that irks me nowadays is that a player either has a song of their own or they have nothing.
And it can take ages for a specific song to take off ( look at Son and ‘Nice one Sonny’. It’s not even original but it’s taken 3 seasons).
What’s wrong with a simple round of “There’s only one <player name> ? Ok, it’s not inventive but it’s still singing a player’s name and has to be better than nothing.

(Which also makes me a bit nostalgic for those down times in games (usually while an injury was being treated) when the crowd would sing for player x to ‘give us a wave’).

I would love to see Jurgen's old chant revived for Trippier.
