Hopefully he'll continue to grow and maintain his first team position. He has too many limitations to be a regular starter for a club with champions league ambition.

Guest Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 That'd be the more ideal option but is he going to become a top 4 level regular? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Butcher Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Love this lad. He offers so much off the ball and is okay with it. He'll probably play less in the coming years, but I wouldn't hesitate to offer him a new 5-year deal tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I'm blind when it comes to Longstaff like, he seemingly played alright but aside from his ball out to Miggy and a heavy touch that lead to Wolves attacking, it was like he wasn't even there.

1964 Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Does the hard yards and then some, he's got such an engine. Was great today I thought Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Surprised people are lauding the performance, I saw him do his usual good defensive work but my main memory of him from the game was him sticking a leg out late and setting up an attack for them on the halfway line Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I like him but he felt like a weak link in the trio today, struggled to get into it for quite long stretches and seemed to get caught defensively too.

TRon Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 He's a weak link for me like, his touch isn't great, just don't think he's great at keeping possession under pressure. But he played a nice pass out for the winner so fair play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miercoles Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I think one thing that adds to his value and gets overlooked is his consistency in fitness, he's played almost every minute of every game this season and hasn't slowed down at all. Even if he's not your best player, having someone who is useful and available for every single minute of the season is really valuable when you're setting your lineup each week. Death, taxes, and Sean Longstaff busting balls for 90 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willock has looked better for it and I reckon Joe will too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Absolutely runs himself into the ground every single game for us He'll get replaced eventually as sadly his quality isn't the greatest but can't knock his running every single match Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buzza Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Solid 8.5 out of ten today, just a bit scrappy in front of goal, the rest of his play was top stuff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 I love his knack of ghosting into the box late and getting on the end of stuff, it's a really underappreciated skill. I was going to say that particular trait is a bit like Kevin Nolan but then when you think of Sean's effort, athleticism, graft and yards covered compared to him it feels very insulting to say it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killuminati Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 (edited) Would keep him no matter what comes in the future. Gives his everything of what he is capable of. A future rotational squad player. The things that disturb me most is the chances he gets in to without taking them. Also sometimes very slowminded when it comes to when recieving the ball. Today for example he got the ball outside our penalty area. Majority of the man utd players were disoriented and behind him, perfect counter attack. Maxi and one other of ours on the left waving and totally ready to counter. Longstaff efforts the pass/longball but Maxi had to throw him self trying to catch it, ball went out and throw in for them. Situations like that are messing up the rythm and could end up costly. For me personally Longstaff and Burn are the weak links in our squad. Not saying they are bad bad players but for the next season we should upgrade them and use them as backup.

Weezertron Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I don’t remember his chances being that easy today. I’m going to always bang this drum, but I want him to be a part of our starting midfield for as long as he can be. He might have to go up a few more levels to keep his spot in the coming seasons but I reckon he can do it. Every other thread I read supporters wanting him, Burn and Murphy upgraded. The three who support us. Bums me out My romanticism is gonna fuck me over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
