A mistake being magnified which clouded his uncredited overall good solid game.
Not sure if posters here have really played football or ever tried defending.
That Everton player is ready to pull the trigger, Smalling is nowhere near, after a terrible mistake by another player, the only way he could reach and possibly help save it is to nick tackle it, dive slide style. Credit for trying, not a good slide tbh, a gamble which fail.
Oh I'm sure if Smalling stayed on his ground and let the player shoot and we concede, the same thing - he'll be criticized for not doing anything.
"Smalling should've slide, why is he just standing his ground. Your job is to defend, you (insert insults here)."
