Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies says he far from being the best despite been named in the FIFAPro World 11, Davies was recognised for his contribution in Bayern’s 2019/20 Bundesliga, UEFA Champions League treble by being named in the World 11 line-up alongside club-mates Joshua Kimmich and Robert Lewandowski.
The 20-year-old Canada international admits he was delighted to make the final grade, even if he doesn’t consider himself the best in that position, meanwhile he only converted from left winger to a left back last season.
“It means a lot,” Davies told media. “Obviously from a personal standpoint, for myself there are attributes of my game that I can fix. There are other left-backs in the world that are better than me at some attributes but being able to consider myself as one of the best left-backs is amazing.”
The Canadian set a new Bundesliga speed record, while serving up one of the finest assists in Champions League history, in the record champions’ 8-2 quarter-final rout of Barcelona.
Davies is a big fan of FIFA Best Men’s Player and fellow club mate Lewandowski,
“I’m learning from these two experienced players,” he revealed. “Lewandowski, the best player in the world right now. It’s amazing to learn from him, getting feedback from him. Manuel Neuer, a top keeper. You can’t take anything away from these guys. I just soak everything in and learn from them.”
