    Goal and an assist tonight. That brings his goal tally to 4 for the season I believe (including cup games).

    The Luton defense was absolutely woeful for the goals they conceded. Only saw the highlights and id be pointing the finger at the players around him. Not the best of places for him to be learning his trade

    Has probably joined Luton at the wrong time really. Just after they've had their moment in the Premier League and could afford him with the TV and parachute money, but it feels like they're unlikely to return to those heights again any time soon.

    Doubt he thought there was much chance he'd be heading back to League 1 when he signed for Luton last summer. Potentially might not stay on, but Luton have money and may not need to sell him.

    It's turned out to be a disappointing move. I wonder what other options were available to McGuinness before he agreed to join Luton Town? Luton are unlikely to sell a player they just forked out £10m for either. Not that anyone is likely to spend that sort of a money on a League One player anyway.

    Signs for Sheffield Utd - fee undisclosed (BBC Football). He does belong at a higher level than EFL 1.
    Sheffield Star suggests fee was £10m.

    Quite a collection of Irish players at Sheffield United all of a sudden. McGuinness has signed, Ogbene and Barry have joined on loan (and Barry has declared for Ireland). And Cannon seems to still be there too, as Preston couldn't afford to pay his 25k a week wages to loan him in.
