Victor Lindelof v Chris Smalling




Victor Lindelof

Victor Lindelof       Trumps
Heading 8
Strong in the air, but he does not seem to do well with physical battles to win the header.
Tackling 7
Decent tackler, but not outstanding, he tries to win the ball by nicking it off the player or intercepting it, rather than a tackle as such.
Passing 8
Very good on the ball, better than he has shown so far in his Man Utd career.
Strength 7
It is not so much that he is weak, he is a strong lad, but he does not seem to relish the physical battle.
Pace 7
Good pace, enough to ensure he is not left floundering in a forward's wake, though not enough for it to be noticeable how quick he is.

Chris Smalling

Chris Smalling       Trumps
Heading 8
Strong in the air and can win headers in either box.
Tackling 8
A good, strong tackler, when he is positioned correctly to put one in.
Passing 5
This is the weakest part of his game. He seems to panic on the ball, especially when he has time and space.
Strength 7
Strong, though he can be mentally weak and lose the physical battle by losing his head and putting himself in the wrong place.
Pace 8
Very quick for a centre back.
