Sean Longstaff

[Newcastle Fan]

Superb tonight, was everywhere.

[PauloGeordio]

Played well. Keep it up.

It’s interesting to me, I don’t dislike Longstaff and often finds the stick he gets unfair. 
 

I have seen a lot of comments praising his performance last night, I don’t recall anything of note standing out in a positive way. 
 

the below clip did stand out at the time in a bad way, that’s so poor defensively from Longstaff imo, he should be following Felix into the box.

im not saying he had a bad game overall but I don’t recall anything amazing.

He was decent, he arrived in the right place at the right time a few times, mainly to collect a loose ball where someone else had made a mistake or a press.
 

Made a few mistakes as well. 
 

I’m trying not to fixate on his mistakes and try to see more of the things people say he does.

It looked even worse from the camera behind them. What's he even doing?

You don't notice him much because on the ball he doesn't do much, his main value is closing down space. Last night when you have Tonali, Willock and Joelinton also sprinting to press hard, it can make difficult to play your way through it and Chelsea got caught several times early on and we scored our first goal because of it. Although that was more due to Tonali and Joelinton rather than Sean specifically, but he plays his part in the press.

I think he is good when we press because he has a good engine to keep going. But other than that he's just a steady player nothing else.
