He won't be back up. Bloke is rapid. |  |

He might not be back up! Wes has been a bit injury prone of late and the physical demands in the PL are going to be a whole different level! |  | |  |

I think forget the free transfer part. Boro picked up Morgan Rodgers for a free last summer and then sold him for 15M in Jan and now he's ripping it up and has doubled in value again. As opposed to being a backup to Wes I think it's about being a tandem. Ensuring that there is no physical drop-off from Wes and that we can attack with the same intensity for 90 mins. |  | |  |

Maybe Wes is out until at least Christmas and we won't register him in the 25 and then reasses in Jan |  | |  |

Advanced talks for Ogbene - 8M on 18:59 - Aug 26 with 6994 views | DinDjarin | Been trawling Luton forums and rumour we in for Chong as well and general consensus would be gutted to lose either but Chong more so. They played Ogbene at wing back last year and basically saying did not get the most out of him and would be perfect in a team set up to counter attack. |  | |  |

I hope he remembers the ball this time. When we played Rotherham on that cold winter night in 2021, he was quick but kept almost running too fast for the ball, aka Danny Haynes. If I remember Bailey Clements was our LB that night and had a good game, although we did lose. But one interesting thing was Ogbene and Ladapo had a good understanding. Maybe KM is bringing him in with the plan to keep Ladapo and rekindle that partnership. |  | |  |

He is similar to Burns in that regard - very pacey, physical and good in the air whilst comfortable across all positions on the right. Given I think we lose quite a bit when Burns isn’t there I’d be happy with this one. |  | |  |

Advanced talks for Ogbene - 8M on 19:37 - Aug 26 with 6280 views | JammyDodgerrr | Said in the summer I would sign this guy so am pleased it is happening and he looked good last season. He will give us the dynamic aspect we miss when Wes is out, plus he has the experience. A good deal - just surprised it's come so late in the window, but maybe the Burns injury forced our hand. Ashtons next nightmare is shifting a handful of players before the deadline. |  |

I think they might have to pay off the contracts, leaving them as free agents. Although it's feasible other clubs have made contact already, but it will be a buyers market this week. ... 'we'll give you 50k for player xyz Ashton, if not you're stuck with him until Jan and your squad is bigger than 25' |  | |  |
Advanced talks for Ogbene - 8M on 19:52 - Aug 26 with 5981 views | Illinoisblue | The crazy part is us spending 8 MILLION POUNDS on a player from Luton and (in this madness of a transfer window) it barely raises an eyebrow. The game has changed. |  |

And a player they signed for free last year, brilliant deal for Luton, Kieran’s wanted him for a while though so guess if he can help us stay up he’s worth it. |  | |  |

I guess the next evolution for us is to find 8million pound players before they get that expensive. Our costly youth set-up doesn’t seem to produce much at all. |  |

Advanced talks for Ogbene - 8M on 20:32 - Aug 26 with 5280 views | davblue | I wonder if he’s one who will be used as a right winger, right wing back and maybe a right back. Maybe Clarke has had a set back and Burns is going to be out for longer than expected. |  | |  |

? Clarke plays on the left And at the moment johnson is playing in a position he doesn't want to play in We need a rw so it enables us to continue to use hutchinson in the correct roaming role whilst it will allow johnson to concentrate being a fullback. |  |

I presume davblue means Harry Clarke, as Ogbene can play right wing back. |  |

Harry Clarke plays right back… We are obviously going to play with wing backs at times this season so I think he’s another option and I think the extra cover for right back if needed. |  | |  |

You have a point however H Clarke may perhaps has had a set back. |  |
