The wings do look a bit long , but its difficult to tell from a single photo , its depends on the angle and if the bird is moving its wing. No hint of sedge warbler plumage on the back or crown and looking head on the slightly darker loop across the upper breast is sometimes found on  abietinus , though I suspect this bird is collybita.</p></blockquote><p></p>
