Luton Town (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

The difference in the second half was that we actually ran at their defence a few times and had players backing up the move running into the box.

Rather than passing it back constantly, which we’re doing far too much of again, the drive from Rodri caused them problems and we profited from it. We need another midfielder who can do that consistently with a bit of power and pace and break through the lines like Yaya used to, as we were far too slow with the ball in the first half. There was some chatter about Thuram from Nice the other day and he’s the sort of player we need in the middle.

Good to see Stones back and we just need to get Walker out of the side now and give Rodri the captaincy.

Foden played well and the lack of a red card for that challenge was disgraceful.

I though Luton did well, tough, tough side on that ground, every team who get anything on that ground will have earned it.

If they had got the punishment they deserved for foul play they would have finished the game with 9 men and got a right pummelling. I wish people would stop praising players for kicking the shit out of players that are better than them. It's not the 1980's anymore
 
That was much better and we appeared to have regained some balance in the team and control of the game.

Kovacic and Rodri have started 6 games together and we've won each one. We also beat Burnley where Kovacic was introduced from the bench in the first half.

This has to be the first choice system going forward.
 
Total bs on the first half mainly due to result and not how we played (which I thought we played very well)

We pressed on and got the result that we rightly deserved. Luton deserved freck all with their tactics and football. They love a good round of fouling our players

Also referee was shocking as well

I thought Kovacic helped Rodri alot today, kept the ball moving and dug in when he had to, far better, looked like the player from early season

Against Luton yes, but not the previous few games. But yes, my first post is too harsh now thinking of it. He hasn't been back to early season.
