    Maybe for giving the penalty away on Saturday he's on the naughty step.

    I agree. I think the signing of Benson illustrates that we aren't going to continue with last season's pressing as he really doesn't look that type of player. If anything he looks like the type of player you would utilise to counter a pressing game.

    Wasnt it reported this coach likes to play 4 at the back, with 4 1 3 1 1 formations etc?
    Maybe hes trying all this out instead of wingbacks etc. and then slowly integrating his own formations.
    One thing for sure, the press as we know it has not yet been seen.

    Last night was Struber without the press.

    Tippy tappy at the back, slow build up to their penalty area and then overpassing the ball side to side rather than having a shot or trying to slip a ball through, all this whilst Luton had their men sat back in shape in position and in control.
