Very good player at this level - good luck Tom. Really hope he can get back to full fitness and there is room in the squad to have him back next season.

Will he stay or go? I think I'd like him to stay. Again his injury record is the worrying thing.. It's a tough one.

With him last season before his injury we looked solid in defence and he scored the winner v MKDons at the Mem. If he could avoid injury and if he’s clear then I’d say stay. But with JB looking for this “reset” I think he’ll be released. In League 2 Tom D would be very good. It’s why I’ve said elsewhere, we need calm heads atm, be careful what we do and don’t think we’ve got to clear out everything. Some of our players will be excellent in League 2, esp a fit TD. I’m not confident that we have those calm heads currently. UTG!

However, because of his recent injury record, I am not sure if its worth the gamble. He managed to get a run of games for Barrow before getting injured again. I do wonder if it would have made a difference if he had stayed and got 10 or so games? If he doesn't get any other offers, we could offer him a month by month deal with a view for a full year if he gets through pre season.

He’d be class in league 2 if fit imo.

I think he’ll join Barrow full time.
Shame as under GC he was a key player in our success.

A fit Tom Davies would be in the team, we cannot afford any gambles on potentially unfit or injured players, he has had ops on both knees, we have to be ruthless.

As others have said, Davies would be excellent in L2 if fit - exactly the type of no nonsense head it & kick it CB we’ll need next season (and have lacked this season).
But unfortunately the bloke seems very injury prone and probably isn’t worth the risk when there’ll be similar CBs out there who we can rely upon a lot more.

I think Tom is an outstanding centre back, especially at L2 level. However, there are huge question marks over his fitness and it's not a risk worth taking. There will be loads of competent centre backs available this summer and Barton will have plenty to choose from. We need players who the manager has every confidence in regarding fitness and I don't think, sadly, that Tom falls into that category.

Yes, according to Wiki he has only played 171 league games in the last 8 seasons.

I’m tempted to say keep him now, he’s shown he can keep himself fit and play a run of games, he’s evidently performed well out on loan at Barrow at the level we will be playing at next season, he’s been in a very similar situation to this before at Coventry where they were relegated to L2 and subsequently went back up.
It would be a gamble but as others have said, he could be class in league two if fully fit.

What with JB saying that all of our players are unfit and the whole playing side of things need turning on its head I am 100% sure that players like Tom who are not currently in the squad will have every opportunity to show their worth moving forwards. Even more so than the shower that have been playing during JB’s reign thus far

Even more so than the shower that have been playing during JB’s reign thus far It's not simply a case of Tom not being in the squad he's also of contract in the summer, so JB will have to decide whether it's worthwhile taking the risk on offering him a new contract, or just signing an alternative CH who's 100% fit.
