Style Of Play
Smith has been referred to as a "classic centre forward" or "traditional number 9" owing to his size, strength, powerful shot and excellent heading ability. Former Oldham manager Lee Johnson as well as former Oldham caretaker manager and Bolton player Tony Philliskirk have likened Smith to both Duncan Ferguson and Andy Carroll. Following Oldham's 3–2 win at home to Liverpool in January 2013, Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers compared Smith to Didier Drogba.
