To say that Davies is a legend to Southampton supporters is an understatement. In his first season with the Saints, Davies scored an incredible 43 goals. Heralded as “the best centre forward in Europe” by Matt Busby and the “best header of the ball” by teammate Mick Channon, Davies was a one-of-a-kind goalscorer whose feats included scoring four goals against Manchester United at Old Trafford, four goals against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and four goals against Aston Villa. Between 1966-69, he scored 90 times in 123 league games.&nbsp;It’s no wonder that football commentator Martin Tyler names Davies as his hero.
In addition to playing for Southampton, Davies also played for Manchester United, Norwich City, Luton Town, Chester City, LA Aztecs, Seattle Sounders and other teams, as well as for his country, Wales.
In this exclusive interview, Davies discusses:
<ul>
<li>his memories of that day in 1969 when he scored four against Man United at Old Trafford,</li>
<li>what it was like to play alongside George Best in the NASL and what Harry Redknapp was like at Seattle Sounders,</li>
<li>the story of how he got discovered as a young footballing talent,</li>
<li>what it was like playing for Wales against England and Brazil, and playing alongside John Toshack, Wyn Davies and other Welsh legends, and</li>
<li>the secret to his success of how he was able to jump so much higher than his opponents during football matches.</li>
</ul>
This is a must-listen interview with a legend of football who is definitely a gentle giant of this beautiful game.

Manchester United 2 – Bolton 0 Cristiano Ronaldo may be <a href="http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/sport/2008/03/19/ronaldos_brilliance_masks_unit.html">masking</a><a href="http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/sport/2008/03/19/ronaldos_brilliance_masks_unit.html"> United’s problems</a>,&nbsp; but he’s doing a damn good job.&nbsp; His record-breaking brace bumped the Red Devils into sole possession of first – one they are not likely relinquish.&nbsp; He now has something else in common with George Best, besides his number, his good looks and his whoring.
Chelsea 4 – Tottenham 4 It was an advertisement for Premier League football, but not necessarily a positive one.&nbsp; A few spectacular goals, but simple man-marking would have muffled many of them.&nbsp; That said, it was the most exciting match of this season.&nbsp; After blowing 3-1 and 4-3 leads in the second half – scuppering their title chances – Chelsea manager/death warden Avram Grant’s seat is now hotter than Kathleen Turner’s husky voice for men in their forties.
