On the season, Davies graded 6 for current form (age-blind), on 1 clean sheet and 2.033 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 4 → 6). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2024/25.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 25. At 31 Davies is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.2 reflects that trajectory.

2.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 6 appearances.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 23.5% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 25 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.03 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
