When I watched the match against Real Madrid I couldn't help wonder who is the biggest talent of the two. I know Varane is only 19 and Smalling is 22, but they are both young and huge talents. I think both could potentially be world class in a couple of years.
They are quite similar in terms of their physical attributes; they are about the same height, both have great pace, and they are strong and athletic.
I haven't watched Varane enough to discuss his technical abilities or his aerial abilities. I think in terms of the former, Smalling has some work to do, but his aerial ability is up there with the best already (maybe not in attack).
So what do you guys think?
