PegCityCam Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 (edited) Must have been an honour to play with so many legends and various high profile athletes (and others lol). Looks like he was smiling ear to ear for most of it. Ronaldinho put one past him for the first goal and you could tell he almost wanted it to happen...a memory and story to tell forever. Watched basically the entire thing and was awesome to see lots of the legends still in great shape and with skill for days. Some were not so in shape but still masters on and off the ball. There was one play when Cafu executed a wonderful cross which was smashed in with a diving header by a "portly" Zamorano. Crazy to see a guy like that, completely out of shape but all the class and timing to knock it in. Oh, and Davies did score lol Edited June 19, 2022 by PegCityCam johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnamed Trialist Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 3 hours ago, Obinna said: Interview with Kasey Keller I love his contention, his mental control for what matters. He can be exuberant off the field, and funloving, but for the game he just holds it all in. I think he has a high level of concentration and obviously is totally focused on success. Keller asks what the goal is at the World Cup, and the goal he says is to win it. Then KK asks what is a reasonable goal, is getting out of the group reasonable. And Alphonso says it is. But he does not say that is all he wants. This is the what gives us faith for the competition, that we have a team of guys who believe they can do it but would rather prove it on the field. It is also why I think it is going to be really fun to watch. cronaldo7, Edgewater17, costarg and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stryker911 Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I'm curious what Bayerns plans are for him this year. They have 3 world class CBs now. Maybe to play all 3 at the back and let Davies play as a straight winger behind Mane. NVsoccer, TOcanadafan and johnyb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cronaldo7 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Is it me or does Davies look physically stronger? He looks a lot less gangly in my eyes. Perhaps growing more into his body. An Observer, JBR, Ivan and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a good offensive year for Phonzie. Shway, Obinna and cronaldo7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obinna Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 One thing I noticed last night was the poise he has at left back now. He's now played multiple seasons for Bayern as a starter, and it shows. I think there's room for improvement on the positioning, but his first touch in the offensive build up just seems more mature and assured than before. And like others mentioned, he just seems to be getting stronger and faster as time goes on. Some excellent 1 vs 1 defending too, might I add. I definitely think he's going to have a steller year at Bayern. johnyb, Shway and The Beaver 2.0 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InglewoodJack Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Bayern visited the white house today. Just imagining biden going up to Davies and asking him “you one of our guys? No?” And then asking every other guy the exact same question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
