“He’s got that Premier League quality” – Luton Town teammate heaps praise on Victor Moses

Luton Town midfielder, Jordan Clark, has heaped praise on his teammate and Nigerian wing-back, Victor Moses, for the quality he’s added to the side, Soccernet.ng reports.

The 33-year-old returned to England from Spartak Moscow just before the transfer window slammed shut, joining Luton Town after previous stints with Chelsea, Liverpool, Wigan Athletic and Crystal Palace.

He came off the bench a week ago to score a stunning goal against Wayne Rooney’s Plymouth Argyle, and his addition to the side is something that pleased Clark.

“He’s quality, you can see he’s got that Premier League quality. He’s had such a good career, so we’re lucky to have him. He’s getting fitter and fitter and fitter, he’s come on and looked a real threat. He took his goal (vs Plymouth) really well, that’s the bit of quality we need and are probably missing a little bit. So hopefully we can see more of that, hopefully it rubs off on everyone else, gives us a lift and we’re looking forward to the next games now and can hopefully get some wins,” the Englishman said in quotes revealed by Luton Today.

Clark wasn’t the only one filled with praise for the Nigerian superstar, as the club’s coach, Rob Edwards, also weighed in on his thoughts about the ex-Inter Milan man.

“If we have him on the ball higher, the idea is you play in that shape, you try and get him high on that last line anyway as much as possible. Clearly he’s more effective when he’s high up, attacking and that’s where he’s most happy as well, so that’s always the plan. Whether we play him as a winger or as a wingback, no doubt about it, that’s where he’s at his best,” the gaffer added.

Moses was unable to help his side last night as they fell to a 2-0 defeat to Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.
