Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has admitted his admiration for Kevin Davies.
United face Davies' Bolton Wanderers tomorrow.
Ferguson told Key 103, "We always regard Bolton as a local derby, and derbies are always going to be special in supporters' minds. We expect it to be tough, it's always tough there. The big lad up front, Kevin Davies, is a handful. We've dealt with it in the past and we have to deal with it again on Sunday."
