Of course he did.
He earns more at Bayern. His buddy Musiala is at bayern, so no.
the reality is that Madrid weren’t interested in him anymore
Maybe he doesn't want to play for the scummiest fans in world football.
We don't know what Madrid were offering. As for Davies's decline from his earliest years at Bayern, it has to be remembered that Bayern were a far dominate team back then.
Nah he doesn't fit Real. Especially at left back. He is not taking over from Vinnie.
This is really the Channel for the casual-fans. Taking an "L" by playing for Bayern Munich. That's so stupid, you can't make it up. Please talk more about Messi and Ronaldo and leave european football alone.
Bayern is a big club so it depends on the wages
Clearly Real Madrid wasn’t serious about him. Same thing with Haaland, they both wanted to go to Real Madrid. They are happy enough with Mendy, it’s Carvajal they need cover for on the right. They also need a natural replacement for Toni Kroos.
Real Madrid made a bid for trent an they didnt make a bid for davies.. Real Madrid weren't sold on davies
Has ESPN FC 'TAKEN AN L' by letting these morons talk about football? I think the answer is obvious.
Mia San Mia 🔴⚪.You all should stay in New Orleans.
Davies loses lmao, both are top teams in their league and both are top tier teams as well.
Davies stays on a top team thats always competes this argument is ridiculous.
ESPN has two teams Madrid and Barcelona so pathetic.
not at all
You can sign a contract doesn’t mean you stay
I don't think it's an L for either. Davies stays at a good club for a lot of money, and RM don't really need to collect another.
This must be a joke
The canadians does not even care at all. lol
I started watching Phonzie ever since he joined Bayern Munich and was just a casual viewer of football/soccer. Watching his play was enlightening. But throughout his time to the present, I also saw his ups and downs and his gradual maturity under the several managers. Certainly the past few seasons saw his performance dip and his deficiencies evident. Under Tuchel was poor whereas under Flick gaining a vast improvement with his upper body and fitness as seen with his muscularity. To me, Tuchel couldn't make use of anything with the team's mentality except to beat them into his compliance and eventual downward spiral of spirit. Getting rid of him was correct as the team is more important than any individual, even board members. The improvement this year is evident but he does need more in his game development which is where the manager comes in to get the best out of players and not by scolding and yelling at them. He will get much better and when that happens eventually, Real Madrid, which doesn't have time for that maturity, will have a very seasoned player to go after and gain further success.
Ribery also turned down Real Madrid and stayed at Bayern and afterwards he said it was his best decision ever. Even Kroos would have stayed at FC Bayern if it weren't for these incidents between him and the club's management.
Let’s not forget Bayern treats their players really well. At Madrid your just another player and as soon as your prime is nearly ending they boot you out
the move to Real would probably more helpful to Canadian football than Davies
What a ridiculous segment. There are lots of good teams in the world besides Real Madrid, including the team that Davies is currently on. If Davies was really intent on pushing himself and playing in the most competitive league in the world, the conversation should have been about him going to the Premier League (La Liga is a joke). But we don't see these two clowns bringing up that topic, do we?
Real madrid is the smallest club in Spain. He made the right choice, an even better one was to play for the best club of all time – FC Barcelona
Phonzie would rather chew on a light bulb then play on that left side with Vini
Such a casuals channel cant watch this no more
With all due respects, these pundits are full of shits.
This channel shouldn't speak on Bayern's Politics.
You guys are clowns.
What a bunch of Losers.
Lol, Herc desperately trying to tear down Davies every chance he gets continues to be hilarious.
Incredible journalism, you can just see they know what they're talking about. It clearly is 'an L' to earn millions of euros and showing loyalty to the team and fans that has shown loyalty to you for years! Incredible video (I actually don't know, didn't watch lmao), 10/10. Would recommend.
