Sheffield Utd boss Wilder: Davies can be huge for us

Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder has described Tom Davies as a key player this week.

The former Everton man is back in action, playing in the 5-0 loss to Aston Villa at the weekend.

While Davies did not put in his best of performances, Wilder knows he has to get more out of the talent to ensure his side avoid relegation.

"Absolutely huge," said Wilder, when asked to describe Davies' role at the club this term.

"With his influence on his teammates, on the younger players, and the calmness he can give us because he's been through this journey himself and has that experience.

And it's been earned at a good club as well. He's one that we thought we'd really enjoy working with him because we know his personality and character.

But most importantly, what a really good player we've been missing for quite a while."
