MOURINHO: 'THE ONLY BAD THING ABOUT SMALLING IS HIS HAIR'

Mourinho: 'The only bad thing about Smalling is his hair' 


Chris Smalling is in no danger of getting the chop after his Watford performance, but José Mourinho is certainly not a fan of his hair. 


Manchester United manager  José Mourinho has been impressed with Chris Smalling's recent form, though he is not keen on the centre-back's new haircut.  


Smalling scored what proved to be the winning goal in Saturday's 2-1 triumph at Watford, ending hosts' 100 per cent start to the season, even if late pressure meant it was a close shave for United.  


Aside from the goal, the defender's display was impressive, as he dealt with Troy Deeney particularly effectively at Vicarage Road, proving to be a cut above the opposition. 


But after sporting a new 'do' which appeared to be a combination of cornrows and Bantu knobs, Smalling should not be expecting any style tips from Mourinho. 


"He was good. The only thing I don't like from Chris  at the moment is his haircut, but I am nobody to tell him that" Mourinho joked in his post match conference.  


"But he is playing really well"

These are Said to Be the Best Goalkeepers in the World, Ranking from 1-25

25. Stephane Ruffier, Saint-Etienne Had Stephane Ruffier not sustained a groin injury in 2011, Monaco might never have been relegated to Ligue 2. But he did, and they were, and that summer the then-24-year-old goalkeeper joined Saint-Etienne, rebuffing Manchester City in the progress. This season he played all 38 Ligue 1 matches for Les Verts for a second season in succession, conceding just 32 goals as his side finished a surprising fifth in the standings and qualified for the Europa League. 24. Pepe Reina, Liverpool Only Joe Hart kept more Premier League clean sheets than Pepe Reina in 2012-13. In a season that saw Liverpool finish a disappointing seventh in the English top-flight, the 30-year-old managed to keep things respectable from a defensive standpoint, conceding only 34 goals and stopping 88 per cent of the shots he faced. To finish the season he conceded just a single goal in his last four matches. 23. Mariano Andujar, Catania Only Parma managed ...

Do You Know Who Said, "Joe Hart is World's Best Goalkeeper"?

Joe Hart has been hailed as the world's best goalkeeper by Wayne Rooney after a stunning performance kept Manchester City's Champions League hopes alive. The Bleacher Report wrote. Rooney said all this after Joe Hart showed a very wonderful play when his team met Dortmund yesterday. According to Bleacher Report , the Manchester United striker was quick to praise City 's No 1 - also his England team-mate - after Hart produced a series of world-class saves in a pulsating 1-1 draw with Borussia Dortmund at the Etihad Stadium. Although City also created a number of chances, Hart's performance kept them in the contest before Mario Balotelli snatched a first point in Group D with a contentious last-minute penalty. Hart denied the German champions on eight occasions and Rooney - whose club manager Sir Alex Ferguson was in the crowd - was one of many observers hugely impressed. Hart could do little to prevent Dortmund taking the lead jus...
