He always was before (AML) - it's almost like he's been told by the coaches to be a LB/WB, but wants to be a LW regardless
So what you are saying is Rose will play on the wing with davies behind him....

As opposed to a non-attacking wing back?almost an attacking wing back
I think Wolf hit the nail on the head. It's Rose's off the ball play that is his biggest weakness, and the easiest to put right. The comparison with Walker when they lose possession is quite striking.I know its fashionable to hate on Rose these days but I'm glad. If he could just work on not fouling as much he'd be fine. He's made a few costly mistakes but no more than Vertonghen made last season.

Whatever you called the wing backs we had under Sherwood/AVB

Oh that pissed me off so much, the sending off not the fans, I was too annoyed to even touch anything football for days after that so fortunately for me I missed the Rose hate. If that's true it's just more proof people like to pick scape goats and protect their favourite players by blaming them.That world class tackle when the ref sent him off made me sick.....even more sickened when I had to put up with Spurs fans blaming Rose for being wrongly sent off, and us wrongly having a penalty given against us.
When your own fans acknowledge the ref was wrong, but still blame you for making the (perfectly timed) tackle....well, what chance is there to ever get credit..
Whilst it's certainly possible, he's shown some good performances in defence under Poch.
I expect they'll compete, but the role Poch seems to play seems to be a hybrid of left winger and defender, almost an attacking wing back, so it makes little odds.
I've said previously that it wouldn't surprise me to see davies as a left sided CB of a back three, walker being on the flanks with rose, complimented by two more at the back and a covering midfielder (like Schniederlin's position last season maybe)
He can't cross and he can't defend. I think a lot of fans still rate him purely for that goal against the scum.

I'm not at all convinced Davies will be the nailed on starter people expect.Whatever your opinion of Rose. I find it encouraging that players want to remain at the club. Especially as with Rose, its pretty nailed on he is gonna be second choice. And I sure he could have got regular first team football elsewhere for a very similar wage.
