'Luton left themselves too much to do'
- Published
I think it's a prime example of a club that got promoted, maybe one or two players feeling they were going to stay in the Premier League. That didn't quite happen.
I actually thought by keeping hold of the likes of Carlton Morris and a couple of the others that they would have more than enough to be so competitive at this level. They just haven't been able to do it.
They just took too long to get themselves going. Matt Bloomfield came in and really got that team spirit and organisation back. Really hard to break down but in the end they just left themselves that little bit too much to do.
That last 10 games before the West Brom game, they were as good as any team in terms of wins and points, take away the top two or three.
They gave themselves a chance but it was just too little, too late and in the end I think it was a lack of team spirit, togetherness, and ultimately that's cost them their place.
