Caglar Soyuncu and Boubakary Soumare were sensational for Leicester against Wolves after previously being distrusted and mismanaged by Brendan Rodgers.
Brendan Rodgers never seemed convinced by the credentials of Soumare, yet further back sat a player whose banishment under the Northern Irishman became one of the sorest points of contention within a fractured Foxes fanbase.
Smith almost immediately rendered those concerns moot. “I can’t talk about what’s gone before,” he said this month, adding: “All I know is that, from Tuesday onwards, myself, Craig and JT have looked at him in training and said, ‘He’s a player.’ We said it straight away.” Against Wolves, it was the opposite. Soyuncu was proactive, winning twice as many headers as any teammate and making the most clearances of any player , but his calm and composed nature stood out.
Wolves managed the delicate balancing act of having 10 shots thereafter without ever particularly looking like scoring. It says plenty that, introduced at half-time, had half of those efforts. Most were speculative and from long range, with perhaps only once truly testing Leicester keeper Daniel Iversen.
