Seems to have a good pedigree. Youngster at premier league level.
Scored 8 in 66 at league one Walsall before 3 in 45 for Luton.
Been played as a midfielder but wonder if he's seen by Jolley as a midfielder or striker.

Their fans seem to think he’s shite, though he must have something about him if the manager likes him.

Would we apply that to Nathan Clarke or any of Slade's guys though?

Strikers
“Jordan Cook was fantastic for 82 minutes against Scunthorpe and was then brought on for the rest of the game”, “Ouch.” Hatters have been withering in the criticism of the 27-year-old former Walsall man. “He may as well pack his bags and go”, “The bloke is a waste of a wage and a squad number.”

“Cook is average. He wins a lot of freekicks but his overall play is too slow, lacks a cutting edge”, “He goes to ground too easily and takes too much thinking time. Counter-attacks wither at his feet”, “It’s almost like there is an exclusion zone around him, he is running a lot but having no effect on play.”

big contrast with the manager's thoughts. maybe he just didn't fit in with the style of play?

That’s not much of a scoring record either from midfield or as striker. Jolley must have a position in mind but I can’t see him being our main striker. At the very least he would have to rapidly improve his stats a lot to justify being selected up front. Happy to reserve judgement for now but we did see an awful lot of non-striking strikers last year.

Difference is, is that the Luton manager actually has something about him and has actually won a promotion... unlike Slade.
