Luton Town (A) - Sun 10th Dec, 14:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[MCFC1993]

Kick off time 14:00 (GMT).

Rodri and Grealish back so we've more of a chance. That said we are struggling at the moment.

They ran Arsenal close and took points off of Liverpool.

Update: Potential Haaland injury page 30 onwards.

Very tough game as they are tough to beat, very direct and strong and with us atm, i would not be surprised to lose

 

[NatalieM008]

At this point, anything is possible...

 

[Goater=Legend]

Another team that will put the ball over the top.

If Pep plays Akanji centre back up against their strikers then I dont know what else to say.

 

[Vester]

I doubt anyone that has watched us play the last month would feel confident ahead of any game regardless opposition. We are awful at the moment.

1-1 I think, can't see us outscoring if I'm honest. We are there for the taking.

 

[TinFoilHat]

Put a tenner on Luton just in case.

 

[levets]

I expect us to win, but it won’t be the formality I would have predicted a month ago. We are in a rut at the moment and will take a massive improvement all round to get out of it. We look totally disjointed all over the pitch. Our passing is sloppy, our control in possession is poor, our creativity has completely gone missing and our defending has gone to shit.

They can score goals, we can't defend or stop teams creating chances, could sky get the famous victory they will crave from a squad that cost less than just one of our players??

Our season starts Sunday.

We need 3pts to get back on track so after a few poor results my honest advice to the players is….
“SHOOT YOU F*CKING TWATS!”

Come on City ;-)

 

[Worksop Blue]

Not sure Rodri will get straight back into that team. He’ll need to bide his time on the bench and wait for his chance.

 

[Deleted member 81382]

Hard to imagine us going five league games without a win.

Rodri back and Stones hopefully in the backline should see a big improvement.

 

[deano ou812]

Perfect time for a team to play us can see Luton getting something from this game may not be the win but definitely a draw,hope I’m wrong though..

 

[Blu1]

They have nothing to lose going into this & will attack us fast. Our issue is attitude & tactics & unless that changes we will struggle in this game. The last 4 games show a decline in our game not a bad day at the office. It’s more than that for me & our new players are so poor so I’m not sure how we sort this out

4-0 Luton

 

[Father Paul]

Our season starts Sunday.

I hope so. I wouldn't feel confident of beating Huddersfield at home at the moment
We have to stop the rot soon this is a six pointer for us I think.
