Well i enjoyed my soggy evening in Bedfordshire, even if the fucking fish n chips cost £5 and you got two chunks and 20 chips.....
Heres my slant on the evenings events.
David Lucas - For the first time in a while i was confident in my keepers abilities, the busiest keeper by far made a couple of good saves and commanded his area well - on this showing, a good signing.
Big Kev - Got roasted every time their winger got hold of the ball and seemed out of position alot - improved second half - I prefer him in midfield as the bossy ball winner.
Greer - excellent but a couple of sloppy easy passes that he gave away.
French Les - looked composed but missed an easy header which they should of scored from but overall i was happy with him.
Callum Kennedy - Did very well - Ifil came on and had little to do.
JP - As ever great control but couldnt seem to get the killer cross into the box and his delivery was poor - linked well with rest of midfield.
Craig Easton - Wasnt at the races last night but did try - Timlin held the ball well enough.
Douglas - Excellent - not too sure about the other comments of speed but he made time for himsef with clever control and positioning and played some great passes. Great worked goal that had the Luton fans around me applauding and my Luton mad mate loved him. He will do better when he has some strikers to pass to. Easily MOM.
O'Brien - pissed down that left wing AND.....he could cross....will do better with some targets in the box! - Macca caused havoc when he came on - Luton were fucked and had changed most of the side so he ran riot.
LLyod Macklin - Disagree with comments above - for me he started badly and faded...only won two of a possible 200 headers and was bullied off the ball far too easily - sometimes it was as if he was in the way...biggest disappointment of the evening for me and some more evidence that we need strikers and quick...Thompson came on for him late on.....but it was all over.
Billy - excellent holding play and winning headers but he was on his own and if DW thinks that Billy on his own in any L1 game will be enough then we are fucked! He had nobody to link up with as Macklin lost pocession or fell over when he played him in. He and Douglas linked well but often paynter was in Midfield, ball winning - could of had a goal if O'Briens pull back been more accurate.
Ajorfree - didnt play so very happy with his performance!
Overall - Luton were worth at least a draw and squandered some great chances and Lucas saved the rest - good luck to them. They will probably feel they should of won, but for once we got stronger in the last ten minutes or so.
We looked in better shape and the signing s looked good BUT we need Strikers and fucking pronto!!!!.....
NB - Why am i getting texts from 'Moms Anal Adventures' - any reason Tonga?
