Luton manager candidly selects ‘toughest match’ against Arsenal, Liverpool, and Man City away
Rob Edwards, the manager of Luton, described his team’s 5-1 defeat to Manchester City as their toughest game of the season. Despite facing several heavy losses in recent months, Luton has exceeded expectations since being promoted to the Premier League. The team has impressed with their attacking approach and has garnered support from neutrals.
Key players such as Ross Barkley, Alfie Doughty, and Elijah Adebayo have stepped up for Luton, but they have struggled to hold off top teams in the league. Manchester City handily defeated Luton 5-1 at the Etihad Stadium, with goals from Erling Haaland and Jeremy Doku. Edwards compared this defeat to their previous losses to Arsenal and Liverpool, stating that it was the hardest game they had faced all season.
Despite missing several key players, Edwards remains optimistic and hopeful that the team’s numbers will be bolstered for the remaining five games of the season. He acknowledged the challenge of facing top-tier teams and emphasized the importance of getting bodies back to improve their chances of securing results in their upcoming matches.
