Terrible duckface. Terrible, terrible duckface.
Who's the person beside him? It's not Fletch, is it?
I am going to re-state what I said earlier - having an actual midfield helps the CBs distribution dramatically.
In previous seasons there have been loads of times every single game where I saw one of the CBs have the ball and nobody from midfield would show for it - meaning the only option was a sideways pass or lumping it forwards. You cannot build from the back under those conditions.
People saying that Smalling doesnt fit LVGs style have it completely wrong. The fact that now we have players dropping back and giving the defenders options for who to pass to, benefits Smalling immensely. He isnt that bad on the ball anyway - it was a confidence issue. The stats show that Smalling has the joint highest passing completion in the league so far for a CB, so 'nuff said.

You are so very right. It's the same reason why Rio suddenly became shit with the ball - there were no options to pass to. Rio did state that Moyes wanted him to hoof the ball forward. Obviously, that doesn't really suit our team. Having Herrera, Mata and Carrick providing passing options dramatically improve our passing from the back.
It looks like Amos or one of Smalling's personal mates to me. Fletcher doesn't seem like a party animal going to these sorts of things when he has a family to take care of.
It's Amos.
That looks like Amos to me.
Are you gay?? The girl beside Amos is more important!!
At least one person asked Amos what the hell is he still doing here? Right?
How old is he now, 24-25?

What a odd post.
Relatively decent Academy product that doesn't mind being third choice (fourth, if we sign Valdes), allow it mate.
Dito

Bizarre post.
Blah blah blah
Much better.I've lost 200 quids tonight on football betting....i'm in bad mood

Injured again. No matter how talented he is, he should be on his way out soon alongside the usual culprits if he doesn't get his injury problems out of the way. Unlucky but that's the way it should be.
Lol, of course.
What happened to him? I couldn't see due to my shite stream.
looked like a injury to the abductor muscle... hopefully is not serious.
That looked bad, how many weeks could a injury like that be keeping him out for?
Did his groin. His muscles must be made of spit and brown paper. Ridiculous.
Someone somewhere has voodoo dolls of Smalling, Evans and Jones and a lot of spare time.
ffs dont start with those!
Brilliant, we've looked so much assured with him in our team and now we're back to square one
Not to worry, we have Rojo, McNair, and Evans with Jones back in training.
lol the timing roul
Seriously? Ugh.
Sums up his United career, complete waste of time relying on players like him.
I'm sure defensive injuries will even themselves out over the course of the season - didn't Chelsea lose Cahill for 45 minutes recently?
I'm the biggest Smalling fan, but if you cant stay fit, you simply have to go after a while.
I don't care if they aren't world class, we need a center half in Jan. Cannot rely on him no matter his potential.
So predictable.
On a positive note, this injury must mean Jones is back to full fitness.
Hurrah!
Hurrah!
Anymore injuries this season, and he's had his chips IMO.
Injured again unbelievable.
Just simply...
