The Canadian teenager has shown promise both as a left winger and as a left back and Kovac selected him in the later role against Milan. The 18 year old had a terrific outing and even though he does still have a few raw edges, there's no doubt that Bayern has a fantastic talent in their ranks.

Davies provided plenty of width down the left hand side and needed no invitation to run forward. He looked exactly like a winger on left back duty, flourishing in advanced positions and getting caught out at the back. However, every time it looked like Milan would take advantage, Davies used his exceptional speed to get back to position.

The youngster also combined expertly with Coman on the left side and was tireless in his forward runs. While he is not the finished product yet, Davies showed against Milan that he has all the qualities to excel at Bayern.
