Newcastle United fans have been reacting to the performance of Sean Longstaff during their game against Tottenham Hotspur.

Steve Bruce’s men just did enough to snatch a draw against Jose Mourinho’s side, a point that could prove crucial in the fight against relegation, things certainly could have gone a lot better if players like Longstaff had put in a better performance.

Whilst he did manage to get the assist for the opening goal in the game, he didn’t really contribute much apart from that, completing less than 80% of his passes, not managing to get any of his three shots on target and failing to win a single tackle.

It was no wonder then that there were plenty of Newcastle United fans that were ready to slate him for his display online during the game:

“Longstaff is awful, his left foot is that of a Tier 10 footballing team”

“Longstaff is just as bad as Hendricks”
“What on earth has happened to Sean Longstaff?”
“Longstaff is one of the worst players I’ve seen for years!”
“Hopefully today’s display puts the Sean Longstaff debate to bed”
“Never seen a player regress as much as Sean Longstaff. A lad compared to Michael Carrick and tipped as future England player….Now I’d rather give Saivet a run out over him”

Do you think the Longstaff brothers will leave?

Yes, it is possible

Yes, it is possible

No, they won't

No, they won't

Perhaps if he’d have put in a little bit more of a shift, they might have been able to get all three points.
