Personally I think Cauley is a very good player at league one level but not championship. I just don’t think he is quick enough, or skillful enough. He falls somewhere in between the two leagues, a bit like us… He was a brilliant servant and representative of the club during his time with us and I wish him all the very best.
Obviously not at the same level, but look at where Kane plays for Tottenham with Son and Kulevevski running on beyond him, and that was very similar on paper to how Woodrow played in behind Brown and Chaplin, dropping deep and creating and arriving late in the box.
Harsh that. While others were out injured Morris took painkilling injections to play for a while & only missed a game when we were already relegated.
This is ********. He ran himself into the ground when the chips were down and played through injury. I can't remember which game it was but there was one where he spent half the game (rightly) bollocking the rest of the team because he was the only one trying. He went for a game of golf when we were down, not the chips. And I can't blame him.
Did people actually think this? He joined us & played January - May. Then had one injury from about September to December & then played the rest of the season. It wasn’t like he was getting constantly injured.
My view on Woodrow is that defenders & midfielders got used to his trick of dropping off & shooting from the edge of the box. Once opposition players worked out what he was looking to do he was never as effective. He doesn’t have the physical attributes to change his game.
Given the volume of former Reds players you’ve had at Luton over the years I think it’s a bit rich to be complaining about the latest two.
It's a fact he went for a game of golf but the chips weren't down at that point, we were relegated and had nothing to play for.
Do you know that he told the club he was injured? If you'd worked your ******** off for weeks whilst sick wouldn't you feel entitled to a day off in lieu if there was nothing of consequence happening at work that day?
I think you've hit the nail on the head with that first sentence. He was fantastic alongside Moore in league one. Moore was almost unplayable the first half of that season, it certainly will have made Woodrows life a lot easier playing next to him.
I was sad to see both of them go but the loss of Morris is the greater. As others have said, injuries being his main downfall.
It's what you get when you sign a relegated clubs two main strikers. You've bought an xbox with a controller and then found somebodies cut the plug off.
Was injured a lot before coming to us though? Tbf , he always looked injured by the end of games last season so I did have a bit of that feeling. Wish he was still here though.
