CrankyCanary 32 Posted April 20, 2023 Devils advocate here but we will possibly be left with only Idah in the Summer; as I expect Sargent to go (perhaps others do not); but I do. So we may need a new Striker. what do People think of Langstaff. He's currently sitting on 41 League goals; Devils advocate here but Vardy scored 30 or so at his time at Fleetwood; so does he have the potential or even half of it; and would it be worth it should the need arise for a new Striker.

Hucks6 190 Posted April 20, 2023 I honestly think we may have to look to league 1or2 to find a new Grant Holt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unthink road 174 Posted April 20, 2023 Must be worth scouting. The step between non league and Championship, can be smaller than Championship to Prem. Plus the disire for a lower league player within the English pyramid system, may bring added development. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Unhinged Canary 375 Posted April 20, 2023 Surely even this club isn't daft enough to let Sargent go and leave us with zero recognised strikers. Are they? 😬 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And if stats are true he's at least on par with where Mullin was two Years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are they? 😬 Does he want to stay; I suspect he does; hence the devils advocate part. Blackburn have kept Ben Brereton Diaz for as long as they have so we should be able to keep Sargent. But do Sargent and Idah want to compete with each other and how long would Sargent want to stay until a bigger club comes in for him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canario 268 Posted April 21, 2023 In all honesty who is going to come in for him? Werder must have pissed themselves laughing at the cash we parted with for Sarge and Rash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulfotto 837 Posted April 21, 2023 Langstaff is 26 and has been around the lower leagues for 8 years I would working out who is supplying the goals for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 5,160 Posted April 21, 2023 Must confess I've never heard of him. It's probably more relevant what type of system he's used to playing in and if he's a fox in the box, a Pukki, or a Grant Holt. If he ticks all the boxes then in this post Brexit era he'll be well sought after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,680 Posted April 21, 2023 I don't see any expeonsive flops in a Luton squad that has made the playoffs two seasons running. I think its time we should accept that foreign doesn't always mean better or better value for money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
