Yes he is. Should have known there would be white text.Smalling is magnificent if he has Schneiderlin and Bastian constantly covering his arse

He was also very good last season when he didn't have those 2 there to cover his arse.Smalling is magnificent if he has Schneiderlin and Bastian constantly covering his arse
He really is. When he isn't having to constantly cover the arses of a holding midfielder, a winger/and or a defender who is still acclimatising to a new country.Smalling is magnificent if he has Schneiderlin and Bastian constantly covering his arse
Great name for a defender. Like Mertesacker(sp) or Stones.He has an awesome name doesn't he?
Rather we spend the dosh on Stones.
Which side does he usually play on then?
Anyone watch him much at Kiev?
Left CB. He can also play at CDM. Looks like blind could play CDM then.

Really ? First I am hearing of him linked with us. No Idea how good he is. But he always joins Chelsea on my FM saves, so that tells a lot doesn't.... no wait it doesn't.Only know about him because he gets linked with us repeatedly.
A bunch of smoke late spring or early last summer, IIRC.Really ? First I am hearing of him linked with us.
Oh. Well if he is as good as people say and is only being quoted at 16 million, that's definitely not a bad deal.A bunch of smoke late spring or early last summer, IIRC.
second video on youtube:
acting like hardmen against little Besic and then he shits his pants against fecking Dzeko just what we need, pussy CB.....
Don't know anything about him
Someone's edited his Wikipedia page to say he plays for us now anyway
Dragovic-ON
He had Carrick and sometime fellaini
drago malfoy vidicHe's a decent footballer but what we really need is a stopper like Vidic - was supposed to be Jones role to Smallling's Rio, but it doesn't look like it's ever going to happen - this guy isn't beast enough; we need someone who frightens attackers
In fact we need a Dragovidic
I think Smalling has turned out to be Vidicsque, too bad he is all alone so he has no one to bail him out when he shits the bed once in a while. I think we need a ball playing CB more.He's a decent footballer but what we really need is a stopper like Vidic - was supposed to be Jones role to Smallling's Rio, but it doesn't look like it's ever going to happen - this guy isn't beast enough; we need someone who frightens attackers

That's what a partnership should be about, ain't it? And tbf Smalling hasn't shat the bed that much since the Man City sending off but he needs a partner that can cover his ass when that happens, at he moment he has Blind who gets outpaced and skinned far too easily for comfort.So a guy to hold up the balls and clean things up when Smalling shits the bed?

The holes are there because Smalling is surrounded by square pegs in round holes from Young to Darmian, when you don't have competent fullbacks your Cbs are liable to be pulled around - which isn't a good thing at the best of times but when you have Blind as the other CB it's disastrous.Exactly. To be fair, I think it would be better for his partner to plug any holes rather than covering smallings ass and getting shit all over themselves.

Blind fumbles with his balls far too often for my liking, pisses himself whenever somebody with greater ball technique comes near him.

It's not hype though is it, he's been our best player and arguably the best centre back in the league all season.I don't buy this Smalling is magnificent hype, however he's our best CB and he does need help. All the others CB options are simply not good enough and should be sold or moved to their natural role
Thank god for thatHis club says it's total nonsense.
