Chris Smalling is symbolic of everything wrong with us. Not good enough.

I really don't like what Smalling brings to United.

He's our best defender??? Is he feck!

 

[DevilRed]

How is that not a yellow? Another tactical foul to stop the counter

 

[MoskvaRed]

6 years after the title decider in 2012 and Kompany again bosses Smalling at a corner. I have no idea how he has survived so long here.

 

[Heinzesight]

And people still defend Smalling. Awful since 2013 and I’ve been saying it since then. Joke player.

 

[kouroux]

Oh ffs

 

[George Owen]

My 1:2 is ON!

same here! come on!

 

[kidbob]

Definitely need new full backs, a ball playing centre half and a 3rd midfielder to complement Matic and Pogba. A right wing would be nice but not fully necessary IMO. I'd be playing 433 with the new signings and preferably a front 3 of Martial, Rashford and Lukaku. We have to be going into these games with a very fast frontline and a team we have confidence in that can attack effectively.

Gonna leave my personal feelings on Jose aside for now but if he can get these players in then there's nowhere for him to hide from playing football like this.

 

[simplyared]

You want us to feel sorry for them?

Sorry meant "passion"

 

[Canagel]

Take the man ffs.

 

[Mrs Smoker]

What do you mean by “Downy Cnut?”

Downton Abby fan?

 

[Drifter]

Smalling haters have been waiting for this moment.

 

[bebeanderson]

This might sound crazy but I would break the bank for Chiellini. He would put the players in check and hold everyone accountable. He would rather make a penalty than let Kompany win that header.

 

[Amar__]

What a cross. Our fullbacks are championship level, they really are.

 

[Janson]

Oh fvck off it was a brilliant header I doubt any of our players would've stopped that

It was, but Smalling got fooled by Kompany's movement. I'm not one of those people who always blames him, but that was his man.

 

[FireballXL5]

Have we had an attempt at goal yet?

 

[Minimalist]

Young has been absolute dogshit this match both in defence and attack. Quite telling that he's been our best left back this season.

 

[Jazz]

Come on United

 

[Litch]

Just defence errors all round....

 

[westmeath]

Kompany wanted it more than Smalling, simple as that. Shame.

 

[Anustart89]

These tactical fouls are doing my head in, fecking book them. So cynical and they just keep getting away with it.

 

[Loublaze]

To the Smalling bashers on here, do any of you think Bailly or Matic would've done any better? Kompany was determined as feck with that big head of his

 

[Kapardin]

A cross that goes nowhere. No other top team is as inaccurate or as kindergartenish as us in the final third.

 

[ManUnitedCanuck]

Liverpool and City are so good at not getting booked for tactical fouls, without it they’d have to change up their style of play

 

[cj_sparky]

Oh for an actual left footed full back to have whipped that one in early, rather than Young to check back on his right foot.

 

[J-Stander]

What does Valencia offer? He’s wank.

 

[No Love]

How does Smalling concede that goal season after season and remain at the top level? It’s just a marvellous effort by him to do so, I suppose.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

The worst is that we were on control of the game, they didn't look dangerous at all, and then this shitty Valencia clearance and the Smalling error.

Hope the manager realises this and gets rid.

 

[JoaquinJoaquin]

Why is Chris Smalling still starting games for this club? No excuse for him to be playing today.

 

[RonaldoVII]

None of our other players other than Fellaini would’ve defended that any better either

 

[MichaelRed]

I really don't like what Smalling brings to United.

Nothing?

 

[jem]

Ok I'm going to be unbelievably petty here, but Rob Smyth calling that goal a special moment on the Guardian MBM is just too much. I'm not asking for Sachin Nakrani-levels of bias here, but come on!

 

[Skills]

Oh fvck off it was a brilliant header I doubt any of our players would've stopped that

It was shit marking. Though it was way too close to the keeper to not be claimee

 

[JinnerJamie]

Game over

2-0

Shit kick from DDG

 

[Random Task]

Really pathetic defending from Smalling. Not nearly good enough.

 

[DevilRed]

The service to Lukaku is wank.

We just look slow compared to citeh. No two ways about it. Dickfooted and slow.

 

[royboy16]

I hope that is Smallings last Manchester derby.

 

[TsuWave]

life is so disgusting. feck this shit

 

[BenjaminP]

Smalling can at least pass the ball. except in a much more real sense, he is a nightmare on the ball.

 

[ha_rooney]

feck off

 

[Amadaeus]

Valencia and Young true form showing up in this game. They should not be first choice fullback.

 

[Bojan11]

De Gea and his shit kicking
