Won't be a common view I appreciate, but, contrary to all logical evidence to date, I quite like him.
His distribution is first class and he made a couple of excellent saves (granted one was from an offside position).
He did make a misjudgement for the first goal, but, on another day (and another ref) he might have got away with it.
After the goal he did look nervy, but, I was impressed with the fact that he did keep coming for crosses.
As I said, I like him and I actually think it's a tough call who to play next week. Probably Greeno, but, Smithies is a good longer term prospect. |  |

The very same, now conceded 6 goals in 5 games despite playing Arsenal, Chelsea & City..
And he was happy to stay and play, but we couldn't move on Green, so he had to go. |
That Green is an awkward so and so isn't he.
On the plus side if we didn't get rid of McCarthy than wouldn't have Smithies.
Every cloud...
I still think Green should be No1 this season but hey ho.. |  |

From R block I too thought it was a foul.
But he is quite short, certainly not imposing. Really felt that when he came on for the penalty on Saturday - the goal looked huge around him.
Nobody's mentioned the second goal. I think he could have done better with that. Rhodes was almost in the goal area when he finished it. After Rhodes's second touch, Smithies had a chance to come out and smother it at his feet, or certainly have a better chance of stopping it than staying on his line.
Besides all this, this is a long term signing and we need to back him. At huddersfield, as a local lad they treated him like a hero from day one. This is his first move - he hasn't had the experience of winning the fans over before. If we get on his back it won't help at all. |  | | |
