Moving Past The Doubt
This is a story for anyone who might be doubting themselves.
You might have read some stuff about me sometime in the last few years.
Like when I was 15: Davies becomes second-youngest player to play in MLS. Or when I was 17: Davies makes record-breaking transfer to Bayern Munich.
I guess it must have looked like I was always going to make it.
But that’s not how it was. Or at least that’s not how it felt.
When I joined the Vancouver Whitecaps, at 14, I was a nervous wreck. I had just left my family in Edmonton. I was a very shy guy. Didn’t really say much. And I didn’t feel like I was one of the best players there. Over the previous year or two I’d had two trials there, but the coaches didn’t feel I was ready. I needed to do a third before they finally took me in.
