Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 21 April, 2017 Share Posted 21 April, 2017 ...according to the Metro: https://www.google.co.uk/amp/metro.co.uk/2017/04/20/shane-long-narrowly-beats-marcus-rashford-in-race-for-premier-leagues-quickest-player-6587346/amp/ Reads like they're gutted it's not Rashford!

Dusic Posted 21 April, 2017 Share Posted 21 April, 2017 He is rapid once he gets going. But ultimately his poor technique and finishing ability renders a lot of it somewhat useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Troy Posted 21 April, 2017 Share Posted 21 April, 2017 Brad Smith and Kyle Walker are the quickest defenders - maybe he could be offside less against them cause they could keep up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKsaint Posted 21 April, 2017 Share Posted 21 April, 2017 thought mane should be one of the fastest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micky Posted 21 April, 2017 Share Posted 21 April, 2017 Quick in body, slow in thought unfortunately. However his game is not about goals (as we know), it's about pulling defenders all over the place and making space for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelman Posted 21 April, 2017 Share Posted 21 April, 2017 I still can't understand why we refuse to use him to his best ability. The over the top ball. How many times has he been waiting for it to be popped over the top, yet instead we run it down the touchline into some dead end?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Gotsmanov Posted 21 April, 2017 Share Posted 21 April, 2017 I still can't understand why we refuse to use him to his best ability. The over the top ball. How many times has he been waiting for it to be popped over the top, yet instead we run it down the touchline into some dead end?? Totally agree. Tadic's vision and Longs pace. It might even be the making of Boufal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5string Posted 21 April, 2017 Share Posted 21 April, 2017 I still can't understand why we refuse to use him to his best ability. The over the top ball. How many times has he been waiting for it to be popped over the top, yet instead we run it down the touchline into some dead end?? I'd love to see it, but maybe clued-up defences & slick pitches don't help. The ball just squirts away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 22 April, 2017 Share Posted 22 April, 2017 Long's game is all about putting pressure on the opposition. By which I mean completely relieving any sort of pressure on the opposition by continually giving away free kicks for being offside and throw ins whenever he shoots.

L1Minus10 Posted 23 April, 2017 Share Posted 23 April, 2017 Good points: Pace, Energy, Stamina, Heading Bad Points: No technical ability in his feet at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verbal Posted 23 April, 2017 Share Posted 23 April, 2017 Good points: Pace, Energy, Stamina, Heading Bad Points: No technical ability in his feet at all. Like watching a man chasing a pram down a hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
