Ben Davies is hoping to be available on Monday when Wales travel to the Olympic Stadium to face Ukraine in an international friendly.
Davies watched his teammates draw with Northern Ireland from the stands on Thursday evening as the Tottenham full-back recovers from the concussion he sustained against Borussia Dortmund in the Europa League 8 days ago. But the defender has now revealed he could be available for selection after a return to training: "I should be fit enough now. I've done a lot of work this week without any problems. So hopefully I'll be able to get a run-out in the game on Monday." Mar 25 - 7:50 AM

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

In a lively first half that saw all the goals, The MLS All-Stars would score twice to defeat Tottenham 2-1.

The two sides traded blows with MLS legend Nick Rimando stopping Harry Kane twice from point blanks range. Nacer Chadli committed handball, giving MLS a penalty chance converted by Kaka. Kane would get his goal after Spurs fell 2-0 down, unleashing an accurate blast from distance. Though chances came fewer in the second half, it was a solid shift by many of Spurs youngsters, including Dele Alli. Interesting of note in fantasy terms is how Mauricio Pochettino turned to Ben Davies to start at left back over Danny Rose, when seemingly the other three starting defenders, Jan Vertonghen, Toby Alderweireld and Kyle Walker are looking the favorites to win their respective jobs.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

A shoulder injury ended Ben Davies' afternoon early at Southampton after the Welsh full-back fell awkwardly [dislocating his shoulder] in only his ninth league start of the campaign.

Davies replaced the injured Danny Rose [hamstring] but suffered his own problem on 76 minutes and he departed on a stretcher; although the player did re-emerge from the treatment room to watch the final moments of the game with his shoulder supported in a sling. Tottenham will now await the results of further tests plus a specialist report before deciding on the best course of action. Vlad Chiriches is a potential replacement for the visit of Manchester City next weekend if the pair are ruled out although Pochettino may decide to shuffle Jan Vertonghen across to the left with Younes Kaboul playing centrally.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham's Ben Davies put in his best fantasy performance of the season in Week 15.

In all honestly Spurs were lucky to walk away from the Crystal Palace match with a point, but it was worth noting the performance of Ben Davies. The ex-Swansea full-back was a fantasy favourite last season but had struggled to break in to Maurico Pochettino's first team since signing on at White Hart Lane in the summer. An injury to Danny Rose has opened the door and Davies has been playing well, getting forward and returning 16 points in Week 15 from crosses, tackles and the clean sheet. We'll be monitoring the Welshman's displays and fantasy returns over the coming weeks.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

Wales full-back Ben Davies admits he is "frustrated" by his lack of Premier League starts since joining Tottenham from Swansea in the summer.

After a fee of approximately £10million was paid, it was widely believed that Ben Davies had been brought in to become Tottenham's new first-choice left back, but the 21-year-old has found his opportunities limited so far. Danny Rose - who signed a new five-year deal just weeks after Davies arrived - has been preferred by Mauricio Pochettino and has been performing well in the league, so Davies will need to make the most of his Europa League and Capital One Cup appearances to have any chance of breaking in to the Premier League starting line-up.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

Ben Davies hopes international outings for Wales will help him to secure a regular first team role at Tottenham.

After a fee of approximately £10million was paid, it was widely believed that Ben Davies had been brought in to become Tottenham's new first-choice left back, but the 21-year-old has found his opportunities limited so far. Danny Rose - who signed a new five-year deal just weeks after Davies arrived - has been preferred by Mauricio Pochettino and has been performing well in the league, so it may take more than a couple of international appearances to change his manager's mind.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

Ben Davies and Michel Vorm have both completely their moves from Swansea City to Tottenham Hotspur today according to the Spurs official Twitter feed.

Both moves have been in the press as being essentially done deals for over a week but today brings official word that Spurs have a new left back in Ben Davies and a new goalkeeper in Michel Vorm. Based on his form two seasons ago, the notion of Vorm accepting a back-up role to Hugo Lloris would be odd but after a disappointing season that was also marred by injury and the arrival of Lukasz Fabianski, he was surplus to requirements. Davies will be the presumed starter ahead of Danny Rose who has been rumored to be on the move himself. No word as to whether Gylfi Sigurdsson will be moving in the opposite direction.

Tottenham are closing in on the signing of Swansea left-back Ben Davies, according to Sky sources.

This story has been running for the past month with both Tottenham and Liverpool interested in the Swansea defender, but Sky Sports are now reporting that he's on the verge of a move to White Hart Lane. Left-back was a problem for Spurs last season, with Benoit Assou-Ekotto loaned out to QPR, Jan Vertonghen unhappy to cover in that position and Danny Rose not of the required quality to feature for a team with top four aspirations. Davies is a solid defender, comfortable going forward and would represent an upgrade on current options, making him an ideal first signing for Mauricio Pochettino.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

Ben Davies, who was held out of last weekend's league match with Liverpool, returned to the Swans XI last night in their loss to Napoli and came out healthy, making him available for selection against Crystal Palace on Sunday.

Davies availability gives Swansea a rare full compliment of defenders to choose from as they prepare for a contest they feel they can take three points from. Fantasy managers looking for a clean sheet could do worse than to back a Swan this weekend, with Michel Vorm looking the most appealing option from a financial position.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

Ben Davies did not make the squad for Swansea City's trip to Anfield this past weekend because of a minor calf injury.

Neil Taylor started in his place and will continue to do so should Davies not be passed fit for the Swans upcoming match with Crystal Palace. Davies has severely cooled off in fantasy terms after prosperous beginnings due to his attacking abilities. However, a home match with the Eagles presents a potential clean sheet opportunity, so monitor Davies status heading toward the deadline. Should he be ruled out, Taylor would make for a nice budget spot start.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

Ben Davies has recovered from the ankle injury he sustained when Swansea City defeated Sunderland last month, and is available for selection in Thursday's Europa match with Kuban Krasnador.

If all goes well for the left back on Thursday, he is immediately thrust into the selection picture for fantasy managers this weekend as Swansea get set to host Stoke City. He's been a great prospect when available this season, averaging over 10 points per appearance. Neil Taylor is no longer an option.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

Updating a report earlier in the week, Swansea City fullback Ben Davies will be sidelined for three to four weeks due to an ankle injury, according to the club's offical website.

Scoop up Davies' all but guaranteed replacement Neil Taylor and use as a start or stash while Davies is out. Taylor is no slouch at the position, having held down the left back role before, and at a price of 3.45m, is simply too cheap to not use at least as a bench option with Swansea's nice run of fixtures on deck.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

In his first action since recovering from a hamstring injury, Swansea left back Ben Davies suffered an ankle injury that manager Michael Laudrup feels will cause him to "probably miss our next two games at least."

It only took 50 minutes of pitch time to bridge one injury to another, an unfortunate circumstance for Davies. Neil Taylor had been his replacement during Davies' previous absence and will likely continue to do so. Swansea has one of the easiest schedules over the next several gameweeks, and Davies' opportunity to rack up fantasy points in that stretch are looking bleak.

Ben Davies - D - Tottenham Hotspur

In Michael Laudrup's press conference for Swansea City's upcoming match against Sunderland, the manager admitted that defender Ben Davies remains a doubt and will be assessed once more before deciding on his availability.

Laudrup also confirmed that Pablo Hernandez and Jonathan De Guzman are also available again for selection, and that Ashley Williams is ruled out as expected. The minor hand injury Michel Vorm sustained in international duty will not keep him out of action. The lack of certainty regarding Davies is frustrating for fantasy managers as he has a plus matchup and has been a consistent points scorer. Unless you have a viable bench replacement, he cannot be recommended at this point.
