After coming through the ranks with Town, Davies was always destined for the top flight, as West Bromwich Albion paid Luton their then club record transfer fee of £3m for his services in 2005. The centre half has gone on to have a fine career, playing over 500 games for the Baggies, Aston Villa, Leicester, Birmingham, Hull and now Derby County. However, who would he select in his all-time best XI from players that pulled on a Town shirt on with him? The Luton News looks at who made the final cut.
