Luton Youngster Impresses The Hatters Support On His EFL Debut

After his surprise inclusion, away to Huddersfield Town, could we be seeing more of Louie Watson this weekend?

With an FA Cup tie, against Wigan Athletic, in the offing, it is hard to make a call on the XI that Rob Edwards could start with.

Will the gaffer stick with the majority of those that have seen the Hatters win three EFL Championship games on the trot, or will he rotate his squad with, as we suspect, the FA Cup coming below the league when it comes to priorities.

Watson, who arrived at Kenilworth Road from Derby County, with only a compensation fee to be paid, due to his age, certainly drew the plaudits from the Hatters support on social media, following his performance at the John Smith’s Stadium:

Really grew as the game went on and his confidence and composure on the ball was great to see.

I was impressed, would love to see him get more game time.

Was so pleasantly surprised about his confidence in always wanting the ball

Some wonderful comments there for the 21-year-old to savour but, in your view, should he be given a start against Wigan, this Saturday?
