“Sometimes I get a little jealous of the MLS guys who get to stay home and play. Especially when I’m playing with the reserves and trying to break through, watching all my friends play on the first team in the States. But really, I’m happy with the direction I went.”

“As for his long-term plans, Davies hopes he can stay in Southampton after his initial contract expires at the end of next season. Otherwise, he hopes to find another squad in England.”

Diablo:

“He’s had to make some major life changing decisions: Go to college or turn pro, play in the U.S. in Major League Soccer or move to England to play with Southampton. Additionally, Kyle has had several surgeries, which he’s managed mostly by himself, which has been very hard for me as a mother,” Winfield says.
