just read this on red cafe
Lets look at his elder brother, young player of the year in Germany - perhaps the new big German star. Today - he represents Ghana because he is not good enough to represent Germany, despite of a bit of a comeback in Pompey this season. It wont surprise me at all if he completley flops when he takes the big step into the big league. Look at Metzelder when he went to Real Madrid... Great Germany, crap in the big league, and it should be a lot harder to make it City than Real.
Boateng might be better than Smalling right now. But he will not be better than Smalling in a couple of years when Ferguson developes him further. Ronny Johnsen and Nemanja Vidic are examples whom actually were rather unproven when we bought them, whom went on to become world class, I bet Smalling can do the same. Rumour has it we had scouted him a long time. Smalling is a proven Premier League player, we have Wes Brown, Johnny Evans behind Rio and Vidic... Smalling can develop into a real good defender, physically he got it all, the biggest national talents does cost money - I am sure Smalling will be worth every penny.

They are certainly bitter. I thought Smalling was absolutely terrible against us at Craven Cottage. He had poor positional sense, lack of composure, ponderous and unable to pass a ball. That doesn't appear to be a one-off. I have wtached him in two or three otehr games and he was dreadful in those too. Even teh Fulham fans think he is poor.
I reckon that the United fan does not even know Smalling's strengths. United are going to have to accept that they have spent a lot of their limited transfer budget on a dud.

Don't forget Smalling is prem proven, after all he's played 13 games!!
and Boateng has only played 2 games against a prem team!

The highlights of this for me were the bit about ronny johnsen being world class and chris smalling being 'prem proven'
