Luton were knocked out of the Carabao Cup at the first round stage on Tuesday evening, beaten 1-0 by Championship side Coventry City.
The much-changed Hatters more than held their own during the evening, but Ellis Simms’ 57th minute goal was enough to settle the tie. To find out how the visitors rated on the night, see below.
13. Jake Richards (SUB): 6
The final member of Town's quartet who were making their debuts for the club, part of a double switch that was being readied just before Coventry took the lead, coming on once the Sky Blues had found the net. With City altering their line-up too, it meant the hosts were the stronger finishes, limiting the midfielder's impact, although he might have forced penalties with the final action, flicking McGuinness's header over the top from close range.

14. Milli Alli (SUB): 6
On with Richards as Luton's thoughts had just turned from attempting to break the deadlock to trying to get back on level terms once Simms had found the net. Had the ball in some decent positions on the right hand side at times but his final delivery wasn't quite what was required as Town weren't able to grab a leveller that would have seen the tie go to penalties.

15. Josh Phillips (SUB): 6.5
Another youngster in the squad who Bloomfield clearly has a lot of time for, as having picked him during pre-season, he was on the bench at the CBS Arena, getting the final 25 minutes to try and create an equaliser. Displayed yet again that he has an excellent delivery on him, whipping a great ball in from the left hand side that went begging, as he had another chance just before the final whistle, but could only end up running it out of play. Should expect to feature in the upcoming Vertu Trophy matches. Photo: Andy Rowland
16. Jerry Yates (SUB): 6
New signing had the final 25 minutes as he continues to get some much-needed game time into his legs. Was well marked by the City defenders until late on when he burst clean through on goal, only to see referee Leigh Doughty get it all wrong, deciding to whistle and mystifyingly bring play back, giving Luton a free kick when he should have just let the move continue.
