Kanj Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 He's got weird mobility in that he covers an insane amount of the pitch and he's faster than he appears. Some of his passing is really good and when he does actually properly connect with a shot he's got a fucking cannon right foot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 https://fbref.com/en/players/a2b105e0/Sean-Longstaff 96th percentile for pressures 94th percentile for passes intercepted 99th percentile for dribbles contested 92nd percentile for dribbles tackled Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Passing stats are horrifying (as are most of his others outside of tackling), but he's looked notably better on the ball the past couple of games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Love the idea of keeping a homegrown player and giving him a chance in a proper setup. Whether he makes or not I have no idea, but ideally he becomes a good squad player and plays more and more because we have Conference or Europe games.

BoSelecta Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Turned his man well and a tidy little chip into Wilson which ultimately lead to Bruno’s goal against arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 A good move. He's been getting minutes and has improved his performances massively in a very short space of time. An easy decision really Dummett's new contract on the other hand just seemed unnecessary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 (edited) Eddie wants him to stay, that's good enough for me like. We've already seen how Eddie can improve players, he can't perform miracles but I've no doubt Sean will improve year on year now.

I don't think he's ever going to pull up any trees tbh, but he's a good solid player with a decent engine. He's probably worth the contract just as a squad player.

Ste Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Sensible. Howe looks like he’s started the process of rewinding 2 seasons worth of Brucey bullshit out of the lad, he’ll be a decent, dependable option for us. Helps towards homegrown quota for them filthy European competitions we’ve spent 14 years trying to avoid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 He's not shite, he was Bruced for 2 years and didn't train or get any coaching at all. No surprise he's looked decent last 2 games after being coached and playing in a better setup. Happy to see how he develops next year and then get rid. Cant believe amount of people that would complain about this. Complain when they give Ritchie and Gayle new deals ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

prefabtoon Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Eddie Howe hopefully has taken over Just in time, to school Longstaff into the player he always looked like he was going to be. He was going nowhere under Bruce. The man is a complete fraud. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantail Breeze Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Sensible decision. Gives him enough time to prove that he can step up and if he can’t, it ensures he’ll have enough time on his deal for us to get a decent fee in. Have some slight hope he’ll kick on, but he’s already a useful back up option as it is so more than okay to still be here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was outstanding under Rafa, so have no doubt he can get back to that level being coached by Eddie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 He had about 5 good game under Rafa, and hasn't had 5 good games since Rafa left He has improved in recent games tbf, but he has largely been dump for the last 2/3 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
