    i can see it being Smith though. (on the bright side Cabaye would perhaps be given more of a license to go forward playing alongside smith - if he's not constantly covering for him that is)

    Sadly I think it might be too, I'm sure Smith is a good pro and will always train hard but I dont think AP realises he isnt half the player he used to be on the pitch. Might even be better off having Cabaye sit deep and Smith go forward, we'd be much more solid.

    He's never been a good midfielder, shame we never tried using him as a striker after we signed him.

    He was a better midfielder than this at Man U though. He was at least capable then, but now is just a liability.

    I truly believe he is unable to leave the club until he scores. Could be some time yet...

    Has never been able to tackle though, which pretty important for a DM.

    Often he actually gets them spot on but it's the fact that every tackle is a sliding tackle. He never stays on his feet and after about 20 minutes players learn to draw fouls from him in dangerous areas.

    He doesn't know how to stay on his feet. If he starts I'm putting a bet on him getting booked.

    At least Smith will only be playing against a recently promoted side, and will be leaving soon.

    I will if they'll actually take money for that bet, it's easy money.
