SHANE LONG NEWS

Totals 13 appearances Long scored one goal from 13 league appearances (three starts) this past season.

Impact Long saw more time this season than a campaign ago, some of that having to do with no Danny Ings in the squad. That said, his days of playing a major role in the Premier League are over and at 35 years old, he doesn't have much longer to go in his career.

Battling ankle issue Long is battling an ankle issue and is a late test for Saturday's match against Chelsea, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl. "It was good we had a scan immediately and he rested...

Impact Long has played off the bench in the last five matches in which he made the squad, which is more than teammate Adam Armstrong. Unfortunately, this injury also coincides to Armando Broja not being available, meaning someone else may have to see time up front with recently recovered Nathan Tella on that list.

Injured in Cup match Long picked up a knock in Wednesday's FA Cup match and is a late test going forward, according to manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.

Impact Long only made it 45 minutes Wednesday, which isn't a good sign for his status Saturday on a short week. No matter, he's the fourth forward option for Southampton and has just one league start this season, so his presence doesn't change much.

Scores off bench Long scored once on one shot during Saturday's 2-0 win over Everton.

Impact Long scored his first goal of the season on his fifth appearance, his fourth off the bench. The forward is simply not worth chasing in any way as he remains purely a depth option for Southampton. He will be back on the bench against Norwich next time out.

Back in training Long (COVID-19) returned to training and is an option for Saturday's match against Manchester City.

Impact Long is again an option, but that doesn't mean much for Southampton. He's a full-time bench option at this point in his career and unless an injury occurs, that's not going to change this season.

Tests positive for COVID-19 Long tested positive for COVID-19 while away with the Ireland national team.

Impact Long may have been in line to see minutes with Ireland, something he isn't getting at Southampton. Similar to last season, he no longer has a role with the Saints, as he managed just 200 minutes from 11 appearances prior to his loan to Bournemouth last campaign.
