Today's best Longelo conspiracy theory ..
Longelo (Long Leggy) wasn't actually "dropped" recently and his appearance in the U21's was purely to keep him fresh. It was all a smokescreen by Blues
Anyway the conspiracy theory is that if we played him in the first team and he put in the sort of performance he put in against Swansea (albeit for just 45 minutes) then there's no way West Ham would have let us have him for just £400,000. So we pretended he was actually a bit crap and would struggle to make the grade without a load of work, was exhausted and suffering a lack of confidence
