studentsaint Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 Anyone else see this comparison? Runs his socks off, perhaps does the work to benefit others and scores less due to unselfish play? I see him being very popular at st Mary's for these reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WGC Saint Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 Better than Ohymgod and hopefully more like Super Kevin Phillips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heisenberg Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 For me he is a replacement for Osvaldo - in that respect he doesnt have to do much to be better If he's a Brett Omerod type or a Craig Bellamy or even a Billy Sharp type - who cares. Just so long as he's not an Osvaldo type Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notnowcato Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 No offence to Brett O but Shane is a much better all round player. Really looking forward to see him linking up with Pelle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did think of this comparison too, and it's not a bad thing at all. Long is a better technical player than Brett too. I think he will prove to be a great signing.

skintsaint Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 Long is going to be a bit like Davis I feel. A bit of an underwhelming signing...but the more you see him play the more you realise he is actually a good team player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see him being very popular at st Mary's for these reasons. Ormerod was a great servant for Saints and perfectly suited our style - he was also a great finisher at a lower level. That's underselling Long's ability a little though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see him being very popular at st Mary's for these reasons. I think so. But I hope he's more Phillips than Ormerod on his finishing. From the little I've seen on YouTube he has one key quality that Ormerod never did. He can beat a keeper on a one on one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ormerod was an excellent finisher in the lower leagues, his role at Saints meant he didn't have anything like as many opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 If Long manages to do this at 1'50" of the video below, he'll be very popular indeed. [video=youtube;-1eF9eCsM6qc] in case it isn't working... Also supports my point about Ormerod being a good finisher when he got the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCholulaKid Posted 15 August, 2014 Share Posted 15 August, 2014 You fell into the very same syllable missing trap! Jeeze! I really didn't want to go wasting my last post in such an angry way... Read it properly. Clearly, given you'd already pointed it out I wasn't going to make the same mistake. Simply, stretching out either the 's' at the end of 'Shane's' or the 'sh' at the beginning of 'shlong' would accommodate the required syllable. Is it really too much to expect a modicum of intelligent improvisation? Well, yes, it obviously is - ****nut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
