Bayern are firing on all cylinders right now and I don’t see the stopping until they lift the trophy. *cough* BearcatSA and El Hombre 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VinceA Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I've always been on the LW Davies train but I agree with Rio Ferdinand's post-game assessment of Davies, he's the best attacking LB in the world just let him keep doing that. johnyb, Obinna and Free kick 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nice to see praise from Robertson. I do tend to twitter search Davies (like many of our players, to try to find some real fan opinions) but the most frustrating thing is sorting through all the “OMG Robertson > Davies”, “noooo Davies>Robertson” tweets.. which I’m assuming are just 17 year old boys that are Bayern/Liverpool/FIFA2020 fans. Although it is quite nice to see the appreciation of our boy Alphonso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrennanFan Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 This one is my fav. "Alphonso Davies. What he's just done to Semedo here, he could have just finished off Semedo's career at Barcelona what he's done to him. Stood him up, gone by him like he wasn't even there, picked out his man." https://twitter.com/CBSSports/status/1294371523747287041?s=19 johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertuzzi44 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Who can stop Bayern now? City? A Canadian winning the Champions League would be amazing! Before Phonzie, who would have come the closest? We've had a few Canadians (CMNT players) play in the group stages; any in the knockout rounds or round of 16?

I think Atiba played in the R16 a few years ago with Besiktas. Radzinski went deep with Anderlecht, as well, about 20 years ago. Can't think of any others.

Atiba went 90 in the first leg, away loss, 5-nil. He played the last 30 in the home leg, another loss, 1-3. In 2000-01 season Radzinski's Anderlecht won their first stage group, but finished 3rd in their second stage group. There was no R16, as the teams progressing from the second group stage advanced to the QFs. cronaldo7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s hope Phonzie can carry his club form into the national game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
