I refuse to believe Luton were this bad to watch under Jones. If this is a genuine tactical set up to absorb this much pressure and pinch a win, surely they were better than this?
Genuine question, does anyone know what the game plan is here? How have we set up to win the game?
I haven't got a clue. This absolutely woeful. It's been punt it forward to no one, pass to the opposition or pass it out of play so far.
There is no press, no movement in front of the ball and lack of pace and guile in midfield is frightening.
Yes we have injuries, but we are going backwards imo. Getting worse and worse each week.
We don't have a game plan apart from hoofing it forward & hoping 6ft 6 Leaburn gets his head on it.
We don't have any wide or tricky players that we could give the ball to who can then create anything......players like Rak Saki or Blackett Taylor. Nor do we have creative midfielders who can jink past a couple of players & shoot.....like Andy Reid, Aribo or Ricky Holmes.

They scored seven goals more than anyone else when they won this Division under Jones - Its baffling!!
We do seem to have the ability of starting games well, but quickly loose the momentum, same again today so far, very static midfield and Leaburn trying to play the game single handed
There’s only so many times we can start a midfield 4 that includes Campbell and docherty in the advanced roles with it not working at all before it start to look like poor management.

I don’t think they played pretty football, but they had Shinnie and Lee in midfield, we know they weren’t pure work horses.
Old problems are resurfacing at an alarming rate. In recent weeks it’s been the lapses in concentration. Today we’re back to being unable to clear our lines and getting caught in possession constantly, particularly when trying to pass out from the back.
This is every bit as poor as anything Appleton served up. The injuries don’t help, of course, but adding TC, Ramsay, and Jones back in doesn’t suddenly make this a good team, imo.

Grind some more.
Bring on Hylton for some “tomfoolery”.
Grind. Full time 1-0.

Very poor.
Where's his mask?
