First player I thought of when I watched him play in the last round. He has all the attributes to be a superstar.

Same actually. That explosiveness combined with engine.

Difference being Davies does it to CL teams rather than League One ha - but stylistically at least, Niels looks to have the exact toolbox for a modern fullback
 
He’s the signing we’ve all been crying out for.

If we fix our strategy to getting young, hungry lads for peanuts, especially ones who want to play for the Don, then we’ll do well.

Buy Low, sell High (but hopefully never if they’re good enough).

£250k when I’ve seen the likes of Wolves pay £36m for a full baxk today.
 
Yet to see him against PL opposition but he looks quality, especially given his age. I wonder if he would be a good option to come on as a LM against tiring defences late on in games? He certainly knows how to put a ball in the box, I could see DCL getting on the end of a few of them!
 
How is this lad coming in as a squad player for us? He looks tidy af and better than about 12 current LBs in the league. Some bad scouting systems around.
Maybe we deserve a bit of credit for getting him, it's not like he was at some no mark club either, obviously took a bit of effort to convince him not to renew with Marseille.

Not that easy to find quality full backs, and as good as he's been there's no guarantee Niels is yet, very early days, but he looks boss.
