Last Saturday, the Hatters got their 2021/2022 Championship campaign off to the perfect start when they beat Peterborough 3-0.
Unfortunately, in midweek, against Stevenage in the Carabao Cup, the wheels fell off the wagon when Luton were beaten, on penalties, by the League Two side, after Nathan Jones made a hatful of changes to his starting XI.
One thing we learned from the game was that while we have a good squad, those that are not likely to start regularly, donβt gel as a side.
This afternoon, the Hatters are on the road to take on a West Bromwich Albion side that are looking to make an instant return to the Premier League they were relegated from last season.
It promises to be a tough fixture but also on Luton, on their day, are quite capable of winning, if Nathan gets his team selection right.
With the starting XIβs now available west-brom-v-luton-town-team-sheets-revealed, we have scanned the posts made on social media to gauge the reaction of the support.
The first common theme we noticed was that Nathan, despite others being available, had selected the same side as against Peterborough:
Unchanged from Posh, attack like we did on Saturday and we can really get something from this

While another picked up on the fact Pelly would be making his 300th appearance for Luton:

And as for those defenders still missing, a little bit of clarification:
He has. Burke is injured and Bradley has long Covid. Donβt know about lockyer

Same team as last week, the same result as last week, namely a win, would be most appreciated.
