I think his best position is as an 8 alongside grealish. He gets around the pitch. He'd be wasted sitting deep
He’s an obvious talent but less obvious is a system to play him in, Ive said it before but he doesn’t get involved in build up play enough for me and, given his excellent energy and striking technique, he hasn’t influenced scores as much as she should have.

I was hoping he'd step up a bit more after Grealish's injury, but he hasn't really. I'm hoping his relatively poor performances in the last few games are down to fatigue, rather than Smith not knowing what to do with him.
