Nope, this is his level. Those two-three months have been an outlier, what are we showing since then is what we have seen from Smalling in the previous four seasons.

Christ. He's been great all season. Everyone makes a mistake.
That was up there with the red card versus City. Absolutely moronic.
No where near the defender people think he is for me.
He's good but he's just that - hopefully he continues to get better because right now it's still not good enough.

He's good but not as good as some think. A lot to learn.
Stupid mistake.
Some kneejerk shit here. Comfortably our best defender all season.We need two centre backs.
Our defenders are getting stupider over time.
Absolutely brainless there.
Been poor tonight
constantly has to grapple with people, why mate why
He's just not a top class defender. Tries to do too much in those kinds situation. Just hold the attacker up, ffs.
I've always said he's fecking shit
He's shite every time he's put under. Massively overrated player.
No hes just shit.
Course he's been great all season. But poor today and a ridiculous red.
Yeah, he's not that great a player. Clumsy and unintelligent. Hardly the traits you look for in a defender.
Bad Ihni binni dimi diniwiny anitaime. Hope he gets battered.
Been saying it on here for years, he'll never be a top class player because he's thick as pigshit and braindead. A mistake waiting to happen every game...he gets away with major clangers in most games.
That's Blind actually - who has made plenty of mistakes himself.
We don't have any top centre backs. Big hole in the team.
You lot are an embarrassment. One bad moment and it turns to vitriol.
85 yards from goal. Absolutely mind boggling decision to do that
No he hasn't he has been shocking since the middle of December.
Wally.
Incredible overreacting here. A stupid red and he should get the blame for that, but he's a solid defender. Ramos has had red cards more stupid than that.
Please can people stop using the word embarrassing. It's a fecking forum for people's opinions - how can they be embarrassing?
Blind has been better for large parts of the season. Imagine saying that at the start of the season!
He's a solid defender. Not world class as many on this forum suggest. Also I wouldn't want Ramos near the club, one of the thickest players I've ever seen.
Classic knee-jerk reactions
If I was to say we should bomb all Muslims, do you think it'd be fair to say that's an embarrassing comment?
If you told us all your real name and location then yeah it would be but you're using a username.

Pretty bizarre logic there.
Shocking, really?
Is he banned for next Prem, Charity shield or FA Cup game?
Silly stuff all the same.
Silly stuff all the same.
After having been outpaced in two similar situations he decides to be that tight on his man and guess what happened.
Come off it. Where does all the anger come from? The match day thread was full of it before his sending off. He's been very good this season. Remarkable improvement. And at the very very very least, much better than what some are saying.
Ridiculous.
Ridiculous.
I hate this place sometimes.
Brainless from him, but it happens, it's not like he wanted them to win. Poor second half of the seasson for him, but still our best defender by a mile.

Hyperbole possibly, but not far off. As has been said, Blind has been better for more of the season. Says everything about the quality of our centre backs that someone who seemingly has no natural position has out shone him.
I thought he's been pretty solid all season but each to his own.
