Everton supporters have reacted to Tom Davies revealing that he has decided to become a vegetarian.
In a recent interview with the club, the midfielder explained that he is now a veggie and that the 21-year-old feels as though it is helping his game (as per Everton).
After the club shared the interview to Twitter, some of the Toffees’ fans aired their support of the Englishman and his lifestyle change.
What a fair choice, Tom

Don’t mind me, I’m just here to laugh at all the anti vegetarian comments.

However, Davies’ decision was not so popular with all of the Goodison Park faithful, with some disagreeing with his change in food-orientated direction.
Great quote until the vegetarian bit

What do we think?
While Davies has not gone the whole way to veganism, a number of the gargantuans in the footballing world have cut animal products out of their diet.
Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero and Hector Bellerin of Arsenal represent a Premier League contingent and, arguably, the greatest player of all time, Lionel Messi, is also vegan (as per BBC).
The lifestyle has undoubted health benefits (per The Standard) and as it is Davies’ personal choice, he should be left to do what he feels is best.
