Sean Longstaff continued his fine run of form for Newcastle United this season setting up Callum Wilson for the opener against West Ham United. Jamie Redknapp has heaped praise on the Magpies midfielder for adding goals to his game in recent weeks and is backing him to add more to his tally, while proving the doubters wrong.
Once dubbed expendable under previous regimes, Longstaff has gone from strength to strength under Eddie Howe. The Magpies academy graduate has nailed down his place in the starting XI and looks undroppable in his current run of form.
Redknapp told Sky Sports: "You’ve only got to look at Eddie Howe, he gets younger by the day. He’s a man that’s sleeping well at night, he’s very happy with the players, it’s a dream for him since he’s gone there, they’re in cup finals and he’s bringing the best out of players.
