has anybody caught up with that piece they did on sky last night?
saw it a bit ago; just watch smalling, he's almost completely on auto pilot on that high line. watched him a fair bit on sunday, including a bit in one of those clips where he goes back to cover right-back and then back into line, and for all that time he doesn't once look at anything other than the ball and says nothing to anyone it's a massive tribute to the manager that he has found a way to get the current centre back pairing playing on rails imo, not far off removing any necessity for them to make a decision we need a leader back there with a real genuine touch of class, nqat. in the meantime smalling's comedy chest bumps will remain a feature Quote:

Carragher made a point of showing Smalling taking charge of that back line and encouraging everyone to push up when City passed it backwards |

Carrick is the organiser if anybody is, but mostly it's nearly automatic Don't forget we're only talking about keeping a high line here btw Must admit Smalling is showing big improvement, but still not convinced with the centre backs tbh - the last 4 goals we've conceded have all been from players gifted time and space right in front of our goal |
