Longstaff

Firstly, i think he's done very well in pre-season and i'd like to keep him here and have him around the first team, getting some game time etc.

Secondly, Rafa has decided to delay his Pompey loan move a bit longer to take him to Portugal, has said he'd of liked senior players but our youth ones have been doing very well and there are a couple he wants to take a further look at in those games.

I suspect they are Longstaff and Fernandez.

Would be nice to have some homegrown talent in the side again, alongside Dummett.

I’d like to think the lad would progress with us rather than loan him out
