Excited to see them turn him loose in attack. Is it confirmed he'll be on the wing? Looking at the lineup i'm not so sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebdeserio Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Yeah it looks like Alaba is in the mid, Hernandez at centre back and Davies at left back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnamed Trialist Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 (edited) Lively today, active holding Diaby and Bailey on his side and moving forward nicely. And in the 2nd half going forward with a lot of energy and with participation in the attack--he just drew a yellow on Bailey. I could see him scoring today. I also like that he works well with Lucas Hernández, who he has basically stopped from playing in many games. All told, Bayern not really better than Bayer and not really deserving any ore than a draw, at least so far.

cronaldo7 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Davies looked solid throughout the entire match. Very lively and hardly put a foot wrong. Had a small moment of lack of concentration near the end there when he was pretty lackadaisical against Diaby who got by him too easily and Bayer almost converted. Other than that, really liked his game. N1ckbr0wn, dyslexic nam, Bdog and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red card Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Davies ranked 23 in Guardian's top 100. Top 10 yet to be released at the time of this post. Davies is top Concacaf player.

TOcanadafan Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Listened to a year-end “Euro Leagues” podcast from BBC, renowned journalist Guillem Balague mentioned the Davies vs. Barca sequence as a highlight of the year for him... Amazingly made #72 on TSN’s Top 100 plays of the year behind a random hockey highlight and a baseball highlight (throw to first base) that you might see any given night.

BearcatSA Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 If Herdman is going to use Davies at LB, he needs to have the right guy in front of him to allow our Bayern ace to do his thing and be a danger man down that flank. Right now, I think it's either Osorio or Arfield, natural right footers used to playing that inverted role wider on the left but are good, two way guys who can maintain the team shape.

Craig11rm Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 What do you guys think about putting Layrea and Davies on the left side. They could interchange positions at any time and Layrea could cut in on his right and have Davies overlapping him. If we play with with a back 5 with wingbacks I think having them on opposite sides is better though.

I've advocated on here that Laryea would be a good guy to have as "inverted" player on the left of midfield and I think he might also be a good fit for that kind of role.

I’ve always thought Junior was good at drawing the defender and finding the overlap or playing it inside Mikmacdo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig11rm Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 I like the idea of Junior on the left too but I don’t think Junior is as committed defensively. I think if Davies and Layrea are interchangeable on the left then we don’t have to debate about having Davies as a LB or LW. On the right I like Junior and Buchanan but you could easily do Layrea and Buchanan on the right with Junior and Davies on the left. Cant wait to see or full strength squad play together again....
