Longstaff

Not sure it is as bad as it sounds, apparently 6-8 weeks but not going to be risked for the last 9 games which makes sense. have a mini summer holiday now, get back in to preseason early and try and force his way into a starting position for the beginning of next season. His interview with the Mail the other day made it sound like he handles setbacks pretty well so make sure the injury is cleared up ready to go again next season.

Also glad it will give the others a chance like Shelvey and Diame to get a bit of a run before the end of the season, if Diame can get back to his best form next to Hayden that could be a pretty good partnership, both destroyers with legs to get forwards.

Totally agree, if nothing else get Shelvey back in the team and in the shop window. Longstaff will be missed but he wouldn't have single-handedly got us safe and there's no reason why Ki/Diame/Shelvey can't make their own mark on ensuring our safety.

Not Shelvey, causes us to play a way far too predictable. Plus it relies on him getting a few of those Hollywood balls right.
Ki for me
