Luton Players

[Calistros]

Every team needs back up players, you can't pay a full squad top wages.

We’ve more than enough “back-up” players already.

When the season ends, we'll be short at CB, RB and on the wings. Who knows who else will leave or get injured, necessitating signings.

Adebayo is absolutely dog shit

10+ Goals in the prem tells you he isnt

if we are playing 442 i wouldnt mind him

He might have missed a few sitters but half the prem would have had him after that prem season for Luton if they didnt ask for 25 million

Im not saying he is Harry Kane but he is definitley a nuisance and would be useful if we are playing 442 which i reckon wilder now fancies

He outscored any of our players last time out in the Prem, he's gangly awkward, exactly the type of player that causes chaos.

Luton have been a basket case this season, but he's worth a cheeky gamble as the talent is clearly there.

 

[Shadota]

Hard to judge him for his performances this season, as Luton have been utterly bizarre in just how bad they've been. Adebayo may not have been superb, but it's not as if he's singlehandedly relegated them.

He's got attributes that our other forwards don't have. Wouldn't necessarily be my first choice, but I wouldn't be unhappy if we were to bring him in.

I'd really like us to go after Doughty though. His level of creative output, in a team which realistically has been mid-level Championship at best, has been absurd. Him in a stronger squad would be so appealing.

Adebayo is absolutely dog shit

The guy who scored 10 in 27 premier league appearances and has a 1 in 4 record throughout his career?

Yeah OK he's dog shit!

Can’t be judging him on one season where the entire team caved. Otherwise we’d have binned off Souza, Anel & Hamer last summer.

I've always thought he was dogshit

Despite evidence to the contrary. That’s fine, we all see things differently.

Millwall looking to bring in Alfie Doughty.
Good player.

Surprised Carlton Morris didn't end up somewhere better than Derby too.

I think they're strong favourites to come back up. Done some great work in the transfer market.

Alfie Doughty crossing to Ivanovic will be an absolute cheat code for them if this come off.

Would still love Doughty. He's a chance creating monster at this level.

Charlton have signed 3. Bell, Burke and Kaminski. Logical moves

Aasgaard has gone to Rangers

Charlton should do very well this season.

They've just signed Kelman as well. I don't really rate him that highly but he was their talisman last season. Reckon they'll do an Oxford and be fine.

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Surprised Adebayo hasn't moved yet. McGuinness they paid 10m for last season aswell

Alfie Doughty: 'My family cried when I told them I'd signed for Millwall'

Alfie Doughty is a lifelong Lions fan and completed his move from Luton Town to The Den this summer.

'My family cried with happiness at Millwall move' ​

What a surprise he supports Millwall btw!

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

20 players they've offloaded since summer. Mad to think they were once good. Parachute payments say goodbye.

I was looking at their business on the transfer market website and just found out we paid around £10m for McGuinness! Nearly spat my coffee out over my laptop. Cannon looks a snip at the price we paid now.

I think Transfermarket got this wrong thankfully. The fee was undisclosed, but the murmurs were in the area of £5m (still not a great deal).

I hope so, although it would make sense as Luton paid about that much for him the year before.

I've gone over this elsewhere ...

Luton paid a fee "rising to £10m" for McGuinness which transpired to actually be around £5m*. We took him off their hands without an accounting loss so probably paid somewhere in the region of £3.5m-£4m

*the £10m came from Cardiff trying to appease their fans. It was £4m up front, £1m at 25 and 50 league appearances, £2m if Luton got promoted back to the PL and a sell on fee. Very similar to Bournemouth putting out there that we paid £10m for Mousset (we didn't, we paid about half) and £18.5m for Ramsdale (we didn't, we paid £12.6m).

Don't get me wrong, £3.75m is still far too much for a limited player but at least it's not 3x that. The interesting one will be, for me at least, what we paid for Tanganga. Rumoured to have a low-ball release fee for top flight clubs but exactly how much more did we pay for him?
