And the player who looked right at home in his first match in the Champions League knockout stages, dominating Chelsea as Bayern took a 3-0 lead in their last-16 tie on Tuesday night.
No challenge on or off the field has daunted Davies so far in a life story that is already remarkable, while his career prospects from here appear to be limitless.
Bayern, allinfootballncricket.hpage.com supposedly in crisis when Niko Kovac departed following a 5-1 thrashing by Eintracht Frankfurt back in November, have refreshed themselves under Hans-Dieter Flick and Davies has been integral to the process.
