Luton midfielder Barkley finds positives in Man City thrashing

Luton Town midfielder Ross Barkley insists his team can take positives from a hammering against Manchester City.

The all-action central midfielder admitted they could have performed better in the contest.

But Barkley knows that picking up points against teams closer to them in the table will determine if they stay up or go down.

He stated, per Luton Today: We need to win as many games possible and stay positive. Five-one against the champions from last season, world champions, but we can take positives going forward.

"We gave everything as we do every game, we're a great team that never gives up, but we came up against in my eyes, the best team in the world.

We tried our best, unfortunately the result wasn't in favor of us, but we've got big games coming up so we're positive for those ones.

There's five games remaining, all winnable, so we've got to have the right mindset and we're all looking forward to it."
