Luton Outlaws - Independent Message Board for Luton Town FC

Man for man, this team arguably more talented than the one that got promoted, but they benefitted from all knowing how we set up and played inside out. Current team are still finding a rhythm at an attacking level.

Aside from Justin and Stacey, who were far too good for the level and we’d kill for now and arguably a reliable Collins type finisher striker, our current team is better IMO.

Keeley > Shea
In defence Pearson/Bradley - probably par with Mads/Kal/Christ
In central midfield Shinnie, Pelly, Berry, Rea, Macca a better unit but we have better footballers now in Sav, Baptiste, Walsh, Clark, Fanne, Nelson
Attacking midfield/wide men - Lua Lua, Moncur, Elliot Lee, Cornick - certainly more options than seemingly Alli, Chong (assuming he’s available), Nelson, Clark, Kodua
CF - Collins and Hylton were great together. Lee supporting. We know we’re still looking a bit light but would hope a fully fit list from Eli, Wells, Yates, Woodrow (im not counting Nordas) should have goals in them.

You can appreciate looking back, how NJ and then Mick had a consistent team, setup, style of play that suited the players we had. Feel MB is still searching for that and I hope he might settle on a 433 at some point in the season.
