JFL19 Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Meister of the Match: Alphonso Davies The Roadrunner is back! Davies capped his second start since his injury with an absolutely brilliant performance. He constantly terrorized Bielefeld’s defense with his galloping runs, and also didn’t do a half bad job in his own defensive area either. He latched onto Kimmich’s long ball to create Bielefeld’s own goal, and he was just busy and diligent throughout the whole 90 minutes. Davies had a stellar season up until his bout with myocarditis, and it’s good to see that he’s picking up from where he left off. The only gripe I have with his performance today was his skyward pass? shot? in the final seconds of the game, but hey, no one’s perfect. All in all, Davies was Bayern’s best player today, and it’s so good to see him back doing what he does best.

Joe MacCarthy Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Canada's 2026 World Cup Bid 11 hours ago, Free kick said: Exclusive: Alphonso Davies opens a window on Edmonton and a World Cup 2026 dream - Inside World Football You beat me to it I was just about to post that article here. Aside from the part about Phonsie waxing poetic about his hometown Edmonton being a host city (which I posted in the Canada's 2026 World Cup Bid thread) what caught my eye was the info about his agent which I will post here for future information archival reference. What I find interesting, is that his agent is his old coach from Edmonton. Not only that, but based in Edmonton they have an agent (and his agency) of one of the best players in the world. I think it can't be underestimated the importance of that, of having that knowledge and experience at the highest level going forward for our up and coming players. " I do have strong connections in Edmonton. My family lives there so I visit them whenever I have time off. My management team, ATG Sports Management, is also based out of Edmonton. My agent, Nick Huoseh, who is also my neighbour, he is born and raised in Edmonton, and the entire staff of the agency is either born and raised in Edmonton, or lived in Edmonton for many years at one point. I have a lot of great memories playing with the Edmonton Strikers. My coach at the time Nick is still with me as my agent, so we often share stories about those days with each other.

The brains at Sportsnet have put it on World but you can easily watch it in ABC instead ‘Make ‘‘em pay to watch Phonzie!!’ - It’s like the ghost of Bill Wirtz (the greedy old fart who refused to put Chicago Blackhawks home games on TV when the game wasn’t sold out) is making these decisions. Every Phonzie game should be prime billing on the network leading up to the World Cup. In any case, I’m sure these decisions are made by conservative out of touch old suits in the same demographic as Wirtz. Although, wouldn’t be out of the question Sportsnet wants to sabotage any hype to hurt TSN numbers during the Cup. Stupid, cuz it’s a win-win situation to hype up this team, but the way these 2 war with each other it wouldn’t be out of the question.

But as someone not subscribed to SN World I have noticed this many, many times. It's gotten to the point where I don't even bother to see if Bayern is on the regular SN channels anymore.

TGAA_Star Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Davies wins yet another Bundesliga title with Bayern. I mean he's in the perfect situation at Bayern and honestly if his contract situation does come up at Bayern, I wouldn't be surprised if he were to stay at Bayern either. He is one of their main constants at that club ever since he arrived there. Onelessstar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm one of his biggest fans, but he continues to make basic defensive read errors (such was the case here by failing to track his man on an obvious give-and-go). Unacceptable.
