I have never seen this type of player, even after scoring Two He was still hungry score more goals against us,His type of player is rare,I wonder if He is human or machine’: Luton defender Tom Lockyer heap praises on ONE Man United player for His exceptional performance today
Luton Town defender Tom Lockyer heaped praise on Manchester United’s front three ahead of today’s clash at Kenilworth Road.
Rasmus Hojlund, Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford have all been in fine form for Man United of late.
Erik ten Hag’s men headed to Luton off the back of three consecutive wins in the Premier League and certainly started the game like a side full of confidence.
Hojlund netted a quickfire brace in the opening 10 minutes of the game, with the Dane looking dangerous alongside Rashford and Garnacho.
And Luton Town’s Tom Lockyer was keen to point out the threat United’s front three pose before the game today.
Lockyer on United’s ‘frightening’ attacking trio
Speaking on Sky Sports, the Luton defender heaped praise on United’s ‘electric’ front three.
“I can’t see us changing if I’m being honest,” Lockyer said. “We mentioned earlier we felt that we gave them a little bit too much respect in the first game and I don’t think that’s going to happen today.
“That front three is frightening. It’s electric, it’s fast so to leave it man v man at the back is brave. But I’m excited to see how it unfolds.”
It’s fair to say that Luton didn’t deal with United’s attacking threat during the earlier stages of the game.
The Red Devils looked set to run away with it after Hojlund’s early brace. But to Luton’s credit, they were unfortunate not to head into the break on level terms.
Carlton Morris grabbed one back in the 14th minute and Luton created plenty of decent opportunities before the break.
Luton continued to push for an equaliser in the second half but it was United who created the better opportunities, with the likes of Garnacho, Rashford and Bruno Fernandes all going close.
Nevertheless, Ten Hag’s men held on to pick up yet another three points and make it four consecutive wins in the Premier League.
