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.

Heading 8
Good in the air, well able to hold his own and win a large percentage of balls in the air.
Tackling 8
A strong tackler, it is just his rashness that holds him back at times.
Passing 8
He was brought in because he is very good on the ball and capable of spotting and playing a pass.
Strength 7
Good strength, though the strongest forwards are capable of bullying him.
Pace 8
Surprisingly quick, clocked as Man City's fastest top speed in the early weeks of the season. Though his acceleration is not as quick.
