The day we see captain Chris Smalling with vice captain Luke Shaw is going to be a beautiful dayJust make him captain now. Let him be captain and the face of the club for the next 5-10 years.

Him beside Koscielny would probably the best CB pairing in the world.Imagine we had done that rumoured swap deal for Vermaelen.
After the City red card.
The optimist in me insists on pointing out that the first and last options there effectively split the 'sane' vote, while the 'moronic twat' vote only had one outlet for their rage.After the City red card.
Aha!Someone posted this on one of the football threads on the Guardian. I think we've cracked it.
Even BFS is calling him Mike now
Completely off topic but how the feck is Thiago not in this?

Can't think of any team that wouldn't start him. Maybe City if Otamendi and Kompany are both playing well?Would he start for every premier league team we think?
So Finn did not become a Jedi after all?One of the comments.

He's better than Otamendi so I think he would start in my opinion.Can't think of any team that wouldn't start him. Maybe City if Otamendi and Kompany are both playing well?
Of course, any of us here would have done the same.I touched his shoulder almost five years ago, naturally I take fully credit for his form.
Comfortably.Would he start for every premier league team we think?
I'm struggling to think of a team in the world in which he wouldn't start in going on current formComfortably.
Athletic Bilbao.I'm struggling to think of a team in the world in which he wouldn't start in going on current form
Athletic Bilbao.
Shout out Buttner.Fergie knew how to spot a defender.
Which is no surprise given he would rotate everyone but Evra. Evra played until his legs fell off.Shout out Buttner.
In all seriousness, I don't either.I'm struggling to think of a team in the world in which he wouldn't start in going on current form
Head onto RAWK and they think Sakho is the best CB in the league.So who is actually better than him in his current form, that he has almost had a season of under his belt now? Ramos? Ceillini? Thiago Silva? maybe Boateng? the difference is marginal.
Exactly. At some point we will all have to stop tacking 'how he's playing now' onto the end of these observations. This has gone beyond just a purple patch.In all seriousness, I don't either.
Though he's been performing at such an incredibly high level for so long I think it's safe to say that it isn't just form, it's that he's actually become a world-class CB.
Athletic Bilbao.
Definitely going to have to use this one at some pointAthletic Bilbao.
This post deserves a lot of greenAthletic Bilbao.
