Helsingborg won against Malmö FF this monday with 3-1. The first win over Malmö in Helsingborg since 1999. And surprise.. Luton the big hero! Two goals!
Larsson impressed by the hero of the match: "What if I have had Lutons speed"
Luton Shelton, 20, sprinted home the game for HIF. Even the great Henrik Larsson is full of admiration. - What if I have had Lutons speed, what a player I've been.
And later in the text:
"- Luton explodes in a way I've never seen before on a pitch. He's even faster than Michael Owen ever been, but he has not got the same ability to read the game. Luton will learn alot from Henrik Larsson, Baxter ( Helsingborgs head coach) finishes."
The coach comforted Larsson with the fact that Larsson is an intelligent player and don't have to be as fast as Luton. The person everyone is talking about took his role as a Derbyhero with Jamaican calm
He said: It was 2 important goals for the team. Especially since the first half wasn't very good. Malmö coach said on monday that they were prepared for Lutons great speed. But it didn't show in the game.
Shelton says: At the 1-1 goal the ball landed wrong, in front of their backline, but there was space for me to run pass them and it ended up being a good shot. The second goal was a perfect pass from Babis (Stefanidis), I ran in between the back and the goalkeeper and placed the ball.
While Luton has made 7 goals in 6 games, Larsson only scored 2. But Luton misses Larsson, With him on the field I'm getting even more chances to score, we need him.
Coach thinks that Larsson and Shelton can become a sharp team.
The Coach also says that Luton explodes on a football field like I've never seen before. He's faster than Michael Owen ever was, but he doean't have the same understanding in the game. Luton will learn a lot from Larsson. End of story
Luton will be making a transfer to a Dutch club next season if he still does'nt have the caps needed. he wont be in sweden for long if he continues with such form

Me name MIDDLEAGEBALLA NOW, man dem nuh stop call man likkle youth pon di forum iyah.
Luton signed a 3,5 year contract with Helsingborgs IF.
For the right price everyone's for sale but to a Dutch club I am not sure.. Udinese scouts visited Olympia (HIF's arena) when Luton made 2 goals last game.
If he gets injured easily I am quite sure that he will pull his hamstrings just as easy in any other league..
But I know that he has some problems but currently get special training to prevent further injuries. We happen to have Swedens best sprinter in Helsingborg. HIF works together with his athletic club to get Luton the best training when it comes to sprinter muscles.
I talked to Luton today, asked if he knew spyes from Udinese watched him that match, he knew and smiled. On the question how a move to Italy would be for him, he said "Well, we will see what happends", and he signed a poster to me but didnt understand the text on it
Luton starts tomorrows game against Halmstad with Henrik Larsson on top, who was suspended the two last matches.

New goal from Luton!
He gave us the lead against AIK in Stockholm with five minutes before halftime. AIK equalized two minutes in second half by Milan Burgic from Slovakia, who came in halftime. 2-1 little later, but we got one point after a owngoal at overtime
Will try to find clips or highlights from the game if u would like too.
