    Both times we’ve played Luton it makes me wonder how they’re in the relegation battle at all. They are pretty good for their position — and this without Lokonga today as well

      Good going forward maybe; they’ve conceded over 62 GA and have only scored 43 (outperforming their xG by 7, no less)

        yeah maybe, they look fun to watch at least.

          Oh for sure. They deserve to stay up for that reason alone. But I doubt they will, unfortunately.

          Yeah I think they play football the way they got promoted, not just hamming up to force the point of staying in the league. The positivity could attract some better talent, or even some more money, even if they ultimately have to fight for promotion again. I hope the effort isn’t seen as a failure.

            I genuinely think they can stay up still. But those results this week won’t be encouraging.

    Luton play better football in the final third than United and I’m not joking

        after the Euros maybe, still need to see how Southgate does tho tbh. My main gripe with Southgate is just the Ben White stuff honestly, he’s not done too poorly imo. Not great sure but not as bad as some think.

          Nah I saw a clip recently of someone putting it in perspective. Of something like 24 games against top 10 opposition, southgates England have managed only 4 wins with (maybe 2?) of those coming against a German side that hasn’t made it out of the groups at the world cup twice in a row.

          I don’t watch enough of England’s games to really say whether the team plays well, and you can only play the team in front of you, but I think the general perspective that Southgates success is buoyed by fortunate draws in tournament play isn’t completely unfounded.

          It’s not like England has had any dearth of talent over the years, and similar to the now-aging-out Belgium side of the mid-late 2010s, theres a feeling they really “should have” won something.

          The good news is, assuming good quality management, they’re on the right side of a possible golden generation. Foden, saka, Bellingham, rice all 24 or younger is a great place to be.

            That’s not unfair. But at the same time he has also managed us to the best results in my lifetime (however short that may be), and brought us to a final like it or not. Can’t really plan around Harry Kane missing a penalty against France, can you.

              Yeah that’s a fantastic point too. Kane really doing everything he can not to win a trophy.

                I really really hope we fucking win something. England’s the closest thing I get to a successful ish national team lol. (though to be fair Hong Kong has been getting better! Give Andersen everything he needs imo)
