Bolton's O'Brien full of praise for Davies

Bolton Wanderers defender Andy O'Brien has heaped praise on Kevin Davies - despite the striker only scoring once so far this season.

Davies's first and solitary goal of the campaign secured Wanderers a famous UEFA Cup draw against Bayern Munich last week.

But O'Brien said: : "Kevin is worth his weight in gold.

"He is very under-rated and can ruffle the feathers of any defender.

"I know because I have played against him a few times and he has been fantastic for the team.

"Even though he hasn't scored many goals this season he has been a real handful.

"He has shown what he can do on the international stage against Bayern. But he has been doing that week in, week out for Bolton."
