I think he should be starting most games. To me, the best midfield trio is one consisting of Davies & Gana with Rooney/Gylfi in front of them. Davies is the box-to-box; Gana sits more; and Rooney/Gylfi are the creative outlet.

It worries me a little that he can' see with his own eyes what Tom brings to the side and instead he needs to use the stats.

Well deserved... 19 years old and playing the most technically and mentally taxing role on the pitch.   Add to that he has a tremendous work rate and courage to always want the ball and I think we have a young Frank lampard type player on our hands.  

He's less likely to be prolific goal scorer like lampard but he has the energy and the drive to look and play forward at every opportunity.

I'm not sure he's doing himself any favours this pre-season in terms of showing he's worthy of a starting spot under Silva. I don't see him getting much playing time with no Europe, and that won't help his progression at all.

Besic and Sandro however... been impressed with both over the past 2 nights. Final descision making seems to be the problem with both but the energy they’ve both shown - at least they’re trying to impress.

Those two certainly look like they want to fight to be at Everton.

He was half and half for me today. He wasnt far off making a big impact but ultimately what he tried didnt come off which is what he is paid to do. 

I am worried about our midfield because I dont see them fitting well together. I see it as the following fighting each other for places:

DM - Schneiderlin / Gana / Besic

CM - Davies / Klaassen

AM - Dowell / Siggy / Vlasic

Obviously the AM/CM/DM simplifies things but I dont want the DM list having to have pressure to contribute in the final third and I dont want the AM to have to a lot of defensive responsibility. The CM also has to have the engine to go forward and back, link the play with the aim of getting us move forward.

I am too. I really want us to sign Aaron Moy from Huddersfield and maybe loan Davies back out to them in return.

at this point i would loan him out, it's obvious he needs playing time but he's just not up to the standard we need at the moment.  send him to cardiff or huddersfield or brighton.  let him play week in/out and hone his craft.  his missed header for the goal was shocking, his passes to the opposition and general positioning was not ok.

He needs to refine his game to be able to cut it at this level, I've been a critic of his in the past but I feel sorry for the lad as for no fault of his own he was thrown in at the deep end due to inept managers and purchase's whereas if he'd gone out on loan back then we'd likely be seeing a different player 

I don't think he did badly when he came on his movement looked good tbh you can tell Silva is rubbing off, few sloppy passes etc but in general did quite well tbh
