Luton midfielder Marvelous Nakamba has urged the club to remain focused on avoiding relegation.

Nakamba, who signed permanently from Aston Villa this summer, believes Town can avoid the drop.

A narrow 1-0 loss to Tottenham was a setback, but Nakamba believes they can take heart from their display in the game.

Per Luton Today, he said: “I think we have progressed compared to the first games.

"Now we are getting some decent chances, but also each and every game we are disappointed with not doing this and that, a few basic things.

"I think we're going in the right direction but we just have to stick together, just believe and I think it will come. As a group we need to train hard and keep on believing as a team.

"We grew into the game, but it's a game of results.

"Now we just have to take all the positives and look to the next game and push each other, encourage each other, and keep on believing as a group, as players.

"Also, I think the fans are doing their part by supporting the team throughout, from the first minute and through the 90 minutes.

“We're grateful for that, now it's more up to us as players to give it that extra push and believe."
