# Jemson believes Ben Davies gained a lot of experience from his time at Liverpool

**Former professional footballer Nigel Jemson believes that Ben Davies will have learned a lot from his spell at Liverpool.**

The 26-year-old signed a [season-long loan deal](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58238197) with Sheffield United earlier this month and featured in the Blades’ most recent Championship outing against Huddersfield Town.

Davies has had plenty of Championship experience after featuring [145 times](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ben-davies/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/257097/plus/0?saison=&verein=466&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=)for Preston North End, scoring [two goals](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ben-davies/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/257097/plus/0?saison=&verein=466&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) and providing a further [three](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ben-davies/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/257097/plus/0?saison=&verein=466&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) assists.

The centre-back signed for [Liverpool](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/424460-liverpool-seal-signing-of-ben-davies-on-long-term-deal) from Preston in February but failed to make a senior [appearance](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ben-davies/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/257097/plus/0?saison=&verein=31&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) for the Reds, although Nigel Jemson believes that he will have learned a lot from his time at Anfield.

*“You know what it did do, it certainly gave Ben a good experience being around top, top professionals for a short time. So, I’m sure he gained a lot of experience in the short spell there to take with him to Sheffield United and see what happens from there,”* Jemson told Transfer Tavern.

It has not been the best start to life back in the Championship for Sheffield United and manager Slavisa Jokanovic so far, with Blades only collecting [one point](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/championship/table) from a possible 12.

Jokanovic has had previous success in the Championship, having guided Fulham to promotion to the Premier League after beating Aston Villa in the play-off final at Wembley in 2018.
