The people in front of the back four are mostly Jose, no back four is going to keep 38 clean sheets so occasionally you have to score. It's not Smallings fault if Matic can't control a simple ball or pass to someone wearing the same shirt 10 yards away.
Smalling is the whole teams alibi for not being able to pass and create angles apparently, pull the other one, their might be a decent coach on the end of it. I almost wish Bailly were fit because we'd still concede the odd goal but I'd at least have the entertainment of watching the board sages blame it on Smalling looking a a bit slackjawed on the bench or not buying Perisic in the summer.
