Luton Town

In


James Bree (defender, Aston Villa), Tom Lockyer (defender, Charlton, loan), Jordan Clark (midfielder, Accrington), Rhys Norrington-Davies (defender, Sheff Utd, loan)

Out


Luton stayed up against the odds last term thanks to losing just once of the nine games since Nathan Jones' return as manager. It was not a particularly pretty end to the season but the Hatters did what they had to. Now it appears to be a season to build on. They were especially poor in defence last term but Tom Lockyer has arrived from Charlton and he was a stand-out performer for the Addicks so should be a very useful addition. Jones built his first spell at the club on a classy attack. They do not appear to have made any additions in that area and that department looks fairly weak although James Collins impressed last term leading the line. Luton enjoyed success at their close-knit Kenilworth Road last term but were somewhat disappointing on the road. That is an aspect that needs improving. Jones appears to know what he is doing, having had a long affinity with the club and the right fit. He will expect to keep this club in the division and take them to new heights.

Target


Luton will believe they can finish in mid-table and well away from the relegation battle.
