As was said above, Longstaff stinks of a Ferguson replacement and as Ferguson was never sold, we’re stuck having to play him due to the terms of the loan agreement. We also don’t want to drop Ferguson as he’s our sellable asset and so we are left with a very ‘samey’ midfield. The triumvirate of Brown, Ferguson and Longstaff could work if you had a very high and wide front 3 IMO. Ojo clearly isn’t the answer. Hedges and Samuels wide with Watkins or Ramirez through the middle would maybe work. Ramirez looks like he’s struggling at the minute.
