  1. 1. Longstaff



Recommended Posts

I think he's courted a lot of unnecessary stick down the years but he's been absolutely brutal when featuring this season. Have a lot of love for the bloke but I've definitely reached the point where I hope he gets a good move; if he needs a run of games to be any use then ultimately he's not much use to us. E.

D- 

 

He was half decent when he was making those runs into the box on the inside right channel and scored a few goals (PSG most notably).

 

But the cameos he has made this season have been absolutely tragic and when he did play on the right hand side, he dragged the whole side down.  Wolves and Bournemouth away in particular.

Longstaff is a D - he’s a lower PL club capable player. 


Relegation battle but no higher. And I don’t think he would really help anyone stay up. 
 

Actually would like to see him move to a PL club so we can really see how he’d do. Think you’d be looking at a Kelly to Juve situation where his new fans hate him.

I think that’s roughly where he’d be - bottom six, not outstanding, though I think a perfectly capable CM.  That was us not too long ago - I think he’s a solid enough player for that level.  I suppose the difference with Kelly is that he’s joined one of the most successful clubs in world football and it just seems like a crazy transfer.

He's a squad player now. He wouldn't get past any of our current midfield 3 barring injuries or suspension. But there's no shame in that given that it's probably one of the best midfield 3's in the league. For us then, right now a D.

Feel a bit shit being so negative after the past few days but my opinion of Longstaff hasn't suddenly changed because we won a cup on Sunday. I'm still of the opinion he's off little to no use to us in getting to where we want to be. It's absolutely not a lack of effort, he gives his all, it's a lack of quality unfortunately. 

 

Can't give him anything other than an E+
