This afternoon, with the Hatters welcoming Sheffield United to Kenilworth Road, it’ll be interesting to see if Elijah Adebayo can keep his fine recent run of scoring going.
After spending time on the bench, biding his time, the rangy striker, since being given his chance, has shown just what he can offer the side with his strength, aerial ability and goal-scoring prowess in the top level of English football.
So far this season, Elijah has netted 9 times in the Premier League, but it could have been 10 had the away fixture, against AFC Bournemouth, not been abandoned in such traumatic circumstances.
Indeed, Adebayo’s fine form prompted us, here at Vital Luton Town, to run a poll asking our readership how many goals the striker would finish with this season, with the poll reading:
How Many Goals Will Adebayo End Up With This Season?
with three choices to select from:
• 8 – 10
• 11 – 14
• 15 or more
Reflecting on the result, it appears that the consensus of opinion, with 53% of the votes cast is 11–14, which would be a fantastic return.
However Elijah’s recent form has also seen him nominated as one of the nominees for the Premier League Player of the Month for January, with the other nominations being – Conor Bradley, Kevin de Bruyne, Jota, Gabriel Magalhães and Richarlison.
And, heavens above, Elijah also being awarded a place in Garth Crooks Team of the Week, after the 4-4 draw away to Newcastle, albeit as a midfield player, long may it continue.
