Chris Smalling

[GDeep™]

Still a decent enough young prospect for me, don't think Utd will look to offload. His situation is interesting, as Evans is currently a better CB, Jones is still seen as the bigger prospect and Utd are linked with two new CBs.

Agree with Souness on Phil Jones too, seems a hectic player which suggests his reading of the game is off.

 

[ArsenesNO1Fan]

Is he still a prospect at 24? Plays RB and CB so covers 2 positions

 

[Bigbludfire]

Goal.com isn't a source :?

I'd rather Jenkinson as a starter next season than him.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

No thanks making too many mistakes every game i watching him play.

 

[Monstar-Gunn4r]

Were we in for him? I knew we were in for Jones and Wenger had a sitdown talk with him aand hes till chose Utd but Smalling I didn;t think we were. He hasn't performed great and has been unable to cement a place anywhere in Utd's defence.

 

[CurryFlavoured]

As an RB it's a non starter, every time he's played there he has looked poor. I think he has potential as a centre back though, if he was being brought in as backup I'd be happy but £12m is a bit steep. I don't think Utd will sell him though.

He's fcking sh!t. Hasn't gone on since the day he arrived there. He's 24 and he looks like he's going nowhere. No thanks.

I'd rather Jenkinson as a starter next season than him.

Id rather Jenks at CB than him tbh.

 

[mo50]

He hasn't kicked on since moving there. I wouldn't go anywhere near him.

Welbeck also wants out is what I'm hearing.

 

[DJ_Markstar]

Glad I'm not the only ROFLCOPTERing over this rumour. **** no, stay in Manchester and rot you average bastard.

 

[say yes]

Guess I'm the only one who thinks we could do a lot worse than Smalling as a backup CB then

He was ****ing impressive vs Bayern.

 

[bingobob]

Young, somewhat experienced can play two positions, makes some sense I guess but we should be looking for better.

 

[CurryFlavoured]

I thought he looked really good under Ferguson, not doing well under Moyes but not many are and he's being played RB most of the time. As a backup/successor to Per he'd be very good but the pricetag could be a bit steep.

No. No. No. Danny Welbeck is a poor man's poor man's poor man's Sturridge and is not anywhere near good enough for Arsenal. Just a slightly more developed Sanogo.

 

[Dokaka]

Welbeck is quality. Have a feeling he'll explode at some point at score 20+ in the league.

 

[musicmonkey]

I think we could work with him, wouldn't be a bad signing.

Kaboul on a free transfer would be quality and my first choice peronally. Plus it'd piss the **** off.

Apart from 1 great season for Sp**s he's been pretty average, though you could do much worse for a third choice CB on a free transfer.

If Everton do not get to keep Lukaku next season I can see them trying to sign Welbeck if he is looking out. Comes across as the type that needs faith put in him and a run of games
