Luton Town boss Edwards admits Harris may see Arsenal action

Luton boss Rob Edwards admits Taylan Harris could face Arsenal tonight.

The 18 year-old join in January from Reading.

Edwards said: “Ty is another one who's been training with us this week as well.

"We're probably going to have four teenagers on the bench tomorrow at least, maybe more, along with our two goalkeepers, so there's always opportunities for people and it's down to them to take them. Some of those younger ones, they may get a chance in the next few games. There might be one or two others, as if we're missing Burkey or Chongy or Alfie, or all three of them, then there could be any number of people.

“We've got high hopes for a few. For them to be ready for Premier League football right now you'd probably say no, but there's some there that we think in years to come. That might get sped up dramatically over these next couple of weeks. I don't see any of them, I don't mean Joe or Zack because they've been in and around it a bit more and had some game time as well, but I don't see any of them impacting from the start at the moment."

He added: "A few of the lads are training with us at the moment, but to challenge in the Premier League is really difficult with what we've got, the issues that we've got, I've never known anything like it. There's opportunities for other people. We've had a debut for young Zack Nelson. Potentially, if we've got more people out then that's what we'll have to do."
