I don't think we under valued joe allen? |
Lallana at £25M suggests otherwise |  |

Never has a good game but never has a bad game, not much of an attacking threat cant really cross or play a killer ball. Pretty solid defensively and an excellent player for us but not good enough for a progressive club like Spurs.
Its not going to happen.
I think Ben will stay with us his whole career and go on to be a club legend. |
Can't agree with that on so many levels. He's certainly had good games and bad games for us last season. Goes forward at most opportunities and has proved a threat when cutting inside, with a shot or a pass. Crossing the ball is not the only way to set up an attack after all and I agree, that is not his strength. Pushing forward, he has on numerous occasions been left exposed defensively if we lose possession and has to track back. Overall though I agree he is an excellent player and still improving, in what is after all such a short time at the top level. As for him staying at Swansea for his whole career ......... hmm, that seldom happens to be honest and probably won't for Ben either. |  |

I'd keep Taylor before Davies every day, no brained in my eyes. |
You probably meant to say.....no brain between my eyes. | | | |

I think you've got Ben confused with Neil Taylor, mate. Completely disagree with most of that. |  |

"we" were very excited at the time by all accounts..now I really regret letting JA go but he almost won a title so he made the right decision and supported Utd as a kid so is not perfect
Ben to Spurs? With a bigger better midfield and better CBs he will gave a field day. Would be a good move for him. |  | | |

Given it's looking as though Vorm's off, the rumours surrounding Ash's departure, the uncertainty of the 2nd CB position next to Ash and the need to find an eventual replacement for Rangel, our defence could suffer with too many changes and so I can't see us allowing him to leave this transfer window. |  | | |

quicker, stronger, better both defensively and offensively and is 2 yrs younger. |
Again, quicker and stronger are debatable but I look forward to seeing the stats that prove Shaw is bettee both "offensively and defensively". |  | | |

I haven't seen enough of Shaw to compare him to Ben properly. Having said that, nothing I saw from him at the Liberty last season suggested he was worth much more than Ben, let alone double or triple. A few million for being a bit younger and of course the usual nonsense premium because he's English, but not a lot to do with talent levels.
Surprised at how some of our own fans don't rate Ben. Taylor a better player? Good grief.
Ben is constantly being tipped by football commentators as primed for a move to a bigger club and I've seen him identified as the most promising player at the Swans bar none. He'd thrive at Spurs in my opinion.
I hope Ben plays here for many years to come, but if he does go, I predict there will be many naysayers here eating their words. |  |

So let me get this right...Pochettino as Southampton manager wanted Neil Taylor but Pochettino as Spurs manager wants Ben Davies. This presumably means that:-
(1) Spurs have greater spending power than Southampton (probable).
(2) Pochettino feels that Davies is a better left back than Taylor (very debatable). |  |

Ben can go if the money is right, never rated him highly. I would rather have a fit Taylor. |  |

I think it's fair to say that Monk and Laudrup probably don't agree on a lot of things.
One thing they obviously both agree on (given their team selections) is that Ben is a better player than Taylor.
Everyone who thinks otherwise, you're wrong. According to Monk, Laudrup and me, the three most important people.  | |

Please go and wash your mouth out with soapy water!
How dare you say that about a player who went to the same school as me, albeit Ben was there 5yrs ago and I was there many moons ago  | | | |

He is a good player and IMO spurs could be a backward step, not that I actually think he'll end up there, well not next season anyway. |
Spurs a backward step, from us? You are on drugs.
And Pocchetino is very good at bringing young players through and getting the best out of them too.
Spurs would be a very good club for him, I reckon. And if he has it in him to be that much better, Spurs will find it and develop it. |  |

Thing is Dansan, loads of our fans are thick. Not saying I agree with you 100% but Ben had his fair share of poor games and mad moments last year and many have forgotten just how good an in form and fit Taylor is. Maybe they're new money - the same one's that would rather have Gerry than Vorm between the sticks because he did his job and had a couple of good games here and there. |  |

Has shaw scored yet in the PL, I don't think he has. Davies has twice |  |

Even though Ben has scored a couple, I'd say Shaw is better offensively but I think Ben is better defensively. |  |
