Luton Town v Aston Villa Mega Monster Thread

[Toronto Villa]

now granted, Baker aside, I don't see any of that lot being part of the starting defence at any stage this season, but we simply have not improved the fundamentals.

[pauliewalnuts]

So, now, including the pre-season friendlies so far - Bochum, Rodentburger and the other lot, Wycombe and Luton - the last time we kept a clean sheet was Dec 8th 2012, against Stoke.

That is a run of 32 games without a single clean sheet.

If that doesn't improve significantly this coming season, we are not going to be doing any better than last season.

[Matt Collins]

You do wonder what benteke's thinking!

[Ian.]

We cant keep on relying to score than the opposition.

[Toronto Villa]

You do wonder what benteke's thinking!

he's thinking he just got a fat new contract and if he does the business a big bid will come in for him next summer and he'll be off to a another place.

Why didn't sylla drive on in then and commit the defence?

[PeterWithesShin]

I've been impressed with Delph and Sylla. Not so much anyone else.

[Olneythelonely]

You do wonder what benteke's thinking!

Probably, "it's pre-season and I've just signed a new contract."

[PeterWithesShin]

On the other hand, we do have 5 reserves and a bloke playing his first game of the pre-season for us. Still, it's a bit pants so far.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

We cant keep on relying to score more than the opposition.

Don't tell Mr Lambert.

[Matt Collins]

And we don't really look like scoring here! Some pretty terrible passing going on when we try to be penetrative. I thought that our kids might look quite tasty against this sort of opposition. Unless Gardner pops this free kick in I've been disappointed with all if them bar donacien.

[ciggiesnbeer]

You do wonder what benteke's thinking!

I hate to say it but he is clearly and obviously miles above the quality of anyone else playing today.

We are bloody lucky he re-signed.

[PeterWithesShin]

Judas shows he is as greedy on the pitch as well as off it 

[PaulWinch again]

I'd really like to see some develop and improvement in our defending.

Woodwank "Webb ... mixing it with the big boys".

Err, this is Luton, Jack.
