Alphonso Davies cementing his place in starting XI
After a frustrating last 12 months due to injury issues, Alphons Davies is finally building momentum and getting closer to his best. Davies was one of Bayern’s better players against Augsburg on Saturday.
The Canadian was exceptional with the ball, creating two chances and completing 51 of 54 passes he attempted on the pitch. Davies took up very promising positions in the final third and linked up well with Luis Diaz on the left flank throughout the game.
From a defensive perspective, Davies was rock solid on the left flank. He made five recoveries in the game and was dribbled past only once in the game. The Canadian also won 75% of his duels in the game.
Bayern chiefs will be pleased to see how Davies has responded to the signing of Brown. The German defender was brought in as a competitor for the left-back role. Davies has stepped up and improved his performances to ensure he remains Die Roten’s first-choice left-back under Vincent Kompany this season.
The performance of Davies against Augsburg will certainly give Vincent Kompany hardly any selection headache in the left-back position.
