Well done for highlighting those incredibly impressive numbers of Kolli's. We have a serious talent at our club, just hope that it's nurtured correctly so that it is maximised in the years to come.
Merde day at work, but this news has pleased me no end.
You R's. |

Wow. That's excellent news. I was fearful that it wasn't going to happen.
The two most talented young players at the club: Kolli and Morgan, have now signed new agreements. This bodes well for the future and the team's progression. These two players are special talents who, in time and with the continued rate of their development which is way beyond their young years, have the potential to go far in the game.
Now let's play him behind Frey, with Chair & Smyth either side of him.

Long may that perfect equilibrium between the two continue. The upper end of the table is a pipe dream so steady state for the remainder of the season will do for me. |

Agree with you completely on Edwards. On that showing, he's behind all of our own centre-halves (x5: Fox included). I saw no stomach for the fight from him. Yes, he may not have played many games, but you can still show more commitment, aggression and desire. First goal, as you referenced, being a case in point where none of those basic traits were in evidence.
I don't see him starting in that position against Plymouth on Saturday after such an indifferent showing after being bigged-up by some, as being a great loan signing. Dunne will play there instead, I believe.
Hope we haven't got another Sanderson on our hands. |

Cheers for that informative summary, Nico, of some of the possible legal machinations that may have gone on behind the scenes in this case and in other similar instances.

Sometimes you can do too much/over-achieve at a club, which gives rise to supporters deluding themselves into believing that their club, little Luton Town, is bigger than what it actually is.
Reading the Luton pre-match review - Clive's oppo profile, it appears that they have lost some real quality players from last season: Barkley and Lakongo, in particular, as well as Ogbene and Osho amongst others. They haven't been adequately replaced to at least championship equivalents, yet they spent £10 million on McGuinnes and are reportedly going to initially pay £3 million for Isaiah Jones!!
We were better than them on Monday, but they aren't going down and I believe that he should have been kept on until the season's end at least. Due to what he achieved with unfancied Luton Town, they have virtually paid for their new ground as a result of the premier league £150 million windfall. They could have taken a leaf out of our book re: the MC and kept their nerve by keeping him in post. It will turn around for them like it has for us.
Is it back to Jones again. [Post edited 9 Jan 17:30]

I have my reservations about Madsen, but we persevered with Lyndon Dykes for over 4 years, so let's see. However, he must be willing to want to improve in the areas where he currently falls short in order to become a credible championship player.
I suspect that we will make a number of changes for Saturday's FA Cup game, which I agree with, and he will in all likelihood start. It's then down to him to try and leave a better impression by figuring more prominently in the game. [Post edited 9 Jan 15:39]

Great analysis, Westway. His anticipatory instincts, which I believe is an innate quality and can't really be taught, are clearly in evidence and it bodes well for the rest of the season.
I can see the Chair to Frey source of supply getting us a decent number of goals during the remainder of this season. That's why Chair is playing the balls in earlier, as he knows that Frey will be in the vicinity and challenging in most instances, which is a far cry from the statuesque and non-anticipatory Dykes.
I like. [Post edited 9 Jan 10:55]

He also beat Dunne for pace very comfortably on a few occasions when he moved to their left for the latter stages of the game. Just for balance. [Post edited 9 Jan 10:33]

Chair has performed at a very high level for this club for a number of years. The best indicator of that being the number of professionals from other clubs who have on a number of occasions remarked on his ability, football intelligence, threat he poses and end product.
His contribution to our survival last season from MC's appointment: 7 goals and 6 goal assists (8 in total) attests to that and compared very favourably with nearly all players in the league fulfilling a similar role. Dewsbury-Hall being the most notable exception, who had a higher calibre of striker to provide goal assists aplenty.
Could he be better still? Of course, but let's not diminish his end-product contributions from previous seasons, as acknowledged by his fellow peers from other clubs.
Smyth has a long way to go before reaching the levels of Ilias Chair. [Post edited 7 Jan 19:11]

Very tidy finish from Frey, handball or otherwise, with his weaker foot.
He's doing a good job in leading the line. Six goals in 16 games is a decent return and I expect him to score a few more in the next three league games this month.
Can use both feet, good header of the ball, generally, has good movement in the penalty area and occupies defenders. [Post edited 7 Jan 12:11]

I would have thought that the general consensus among most Luton fans would be favourable.
Unlike when we were in the "promised land", they didn't squander the £150 million on wasters like Barton, instead that has gone to pay for their new ground, which means that they are now secure for many years to come. We could and should have done similar with our premier league largesse when there were many plots of land available and situated in the same area as our current ground. That's now history.
They won't be going down this season. We should have won comfortably last night, but in the end, it could have been a drawn game. [Post edited 7 Jan 11:34]

Totally agree Gazza1.
He's a solid citizen at this level and in my opinion, it's no coincidence that his and Chair's reappearance down our left has given us better balance and has in turn played a part in our much improved series of results. Albeit from the substitutes' bench on occasions and Paal's poor performance against Swansea.
Last night's result was achieved due to another steady and gritty performance by the whole team. Long may this continue, well done one and all [Post edited 7 Jan 11:17]

Ditto. And it's three league games in a week after we play Leicester. All three league games we should fancy our chances of taking points from.
Love the FA Cup, but four league games in just 12 days around Christmas and the new year, will mean that a fair few of the starting eleven of late, will be either rested or on the bench. |

Leicester will definitely make loads of changes as they play Palace the following Wednesday. However, they will still have a strong team out when they can call on the likes of Daka, Iversen, Choudhury, Skipp, Cordova-Reid and Faes.
With a three-game week to follow the Leicester match, I'd have our key players on the bench, as the three games afterwards are all winnable/games where we should be looking to pick up points. |

Reply | Rumour of Eze to spurs for£64 million
at 10:29 6 Jan 2025
I would put Guehi, J-P Mateta and a fully fit Wharton ahead of him in terms of appeal to so-called bigger clubs.
He's still achieved a lot in a relatively short period of time, since being discarded by a number of clubs prior to joining us. Just think a player like Eze is better suited to the European game. I don't see his way of playing the game, which I love to see, being accommodated by those clubs in England.
I thought he played well against the scum on Saturday. |
