Edwards confident Luton will keep their best players

Luton boss Rob Edwards insists they're under no pressure to sell their best players.

Ross Barkley has been linked with a big club move this month, with a return to Everton mentioned.

But Edwards says: "I think our players are worth a lot of money now so there's got to be some pretty hefty bids if there's anyone that's going to be coming in for any of our players. We are in a position where we can say no to pretty much anything really, we're not in any pressure to sell.

"If we feel that it strengthens us or is the right thing to do, then someone can go, but again it will down to whether that's going to help us or make us stronger in the long run, so I'd probably expect a little bit of shifting around but not much.

“People are performing and there are maybe some stand-out performers who have been grabbing some more headlines, especially recently. I try to be ready for anything, we talk about that in our recruitment meetings, but so far there hasn't been. It's been pretty quiet and hopefully we can keep it that way until February."
