Ranking our Squad - 36 Longstaff

[TheBrownBottle]

I missed BDB, didn’t think we’d be starting this up the morning after a LC Final!

 

BDB is a rock solid C.  A C+.

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

[Yorkie]

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.

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.

Said this before the final - on paper Dan Burns atttibutes are of a midtable CB. But his performances speak for themselves and he brings intangible qualities to the setup.  He’s been our best CB all season.

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.

It's been said ad infinitum that Sean's footballing brain is too slow for the top level. D

[Abacus]

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.

I have a lot less confidence in him than I do Krafth or Targett, so E.
