We hold a single season for Long, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 9, 27th of 27 of the 27 centre-forwards in the Super League. At 38 Long is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 0.6 reflects that trajectory.
9 goals in 28 appearances (0.32 per game), a meaningful share of the load for a relegation-threatened side. Add 1 assist for 10 goal contributions in all.
With a Rating of 8.6, Long carries the 27th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Super League of 27, and he is posting that for a relegation-threatened side (Changchun Yatai finished 16th of 16) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. In the final third he profiles as a productive contributor (0.4 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.5× and falling).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~2), then tapers with age. At 38, Long sits on 0.6, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Long's projected Rating — 8.6 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
