# Everton: Fans react to club’s tweet hailing Tom Davies

**Tom Davies put in a solid performance as Everton won away to West Ham United on Sunday.**

Having played just [four minutes](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tom-davies/leistungsdaten/spieler/314210) in the win over Arsenal and then [watched on from the bench](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tom-davies/leistungsdaten/spieler/314210) as Everton lost to Aston Villa, Davies was recalled to the starting line-up at the weekend as Andre Gomes dropped to the bench.

### How did Davies fare at the London Stadium?

Davies earned a [SofaScore](https://www.sofascore.com/everton-west-ham-united/MY) rating of 7.0 for his display at the London Stadium, completing 23 of his 26 passes – an accuracy of 88% – and both of his long balls found their target. The 22-year-old won three of his six ground duels and pitched in with two clearances, two interceptions and one block.

The victory, secured by Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s first-half strike, moved Everton to within a point of seventh-placed Tottenham Hotspur with a game in hand, and Davies will be hopeful of keeping his place for their trip to Villa Park on Thursday evening.

Everton’s [official account](https://twitter.com/Everton/status/1391479986532536339) tweeted ‘VIVA TOM DAVIES’ on Monday morning, and here’s how supporters reacted, with many calling out Carlo Ancelotti for overlooking the 22-year-old in recent fixtures.

**“Baffling how he’s sat out for weeks while Delph was the midfielder of choice off the bench then Davies starts over him today. Makes no sense”**
