Davis will be a solid replacement for Rose, we are fortunate to have a good replacement ready to step in.

I just hope he will offer a little more on the offensive side, which he is more than capable of, having scored a good goal recently.

I hope the fans give him a good cheer and support him on Saturday.

I'm not sure we are a top 4 side without Rose and Vertonghen,

If we are playing 3-4-2-1 then gkn could be an option on the left

The injuries seem to be coming thick and fast now, I hope they dont derail our season.

We're really unlucky with injuries this season. I don't care what anyone says, it will ruin our season at this rate. Rose has been one of, or even the best performing player. Davies is nowhere near good enough cover for him in my opinion. Away at Liverpool will be much harder without him and Verts

Know what you mean. We aren't without Kane or Toby either, yet we've managed to keep it together. Mane and Matip disappearing did the same to Liverpool. Kante and Hazard? Wimmer and Davies both played really well last year after being thrown in the deep end, I hope they can step up in the next month. The other kids aren't ready.

It's a pity to lose both at once, hoping we'll get both back soon. Davies is good cover but we don't quite have the depth of some of our rivals.

They are mounting up. Our already thin squad is going to be stretched to the limit. We now have the most players out injured of the top 6 with 6 (Liverpool next with 4); Chelsea have the least with a big fat zero.

We also have the second most potential games left this season with 29 (Utd have 30). Both Liverpool and Chelsea have a maximum of 20 games left

I truly believe that some of the lads will see this as an opportunity to shine. They don't rain in a vacuum, and are well aware of what's expected of them. We'll be fine.
Or thereabouts :unsure:

I want whatever you're on.

I'm not sure I appreciate that comment, just disagree mate if that's how you feel.

I just thought it's an option if Davies is playing on the left of defence to have a pacey left sided midfielder in that position.

He's injured anyway reading the team news

I think the fact that he will be seeing a knee specialist on Monday will mean that Rose may end up with an arthroscopy. He may have torn a knee cartilage. If he has arthroscopy, then I doubt he'll be back until mid-April. I hope I'm wrong.

Must have done it when scrolling, sorry.
For a moment, I thought you were an orthopaedic surgeon! I'm basing my assumptions on what happened to me, but clearly Rose would have much more intensive physiotherapy.
