Wilshere looking for upturn in away form

Luton Town head coach Jack Wilshere said his side must improve their results away from home if they are to secure a place in the promotion play-offs.

The Hatters, who make a 500-mile round trip to Plymouth Argyle on Saturday (12:30 GMT), last won on the road in November.

They are currently seventh in League One - but only outside the top six on goal difference - and could have loan signing Kasey Palmer in the side for the first time.

"I went there last year with Norwich and I always feel because of the journey, there is an advantage there [for Plymouth] - it's not an excuse, and we can't use that, but we know going down there to expect we're going to be in a game from minute one," Wilshere told BBC Three Counties Radio.

"Our last away win was Stockport - we have to improve that, hopefully starting tomorrow."

The former Arsenal and England midfielder said he had "a lot of respect" for Plymouth boss Tom Cleverley, as they have been on a similar career path.

"He took the number one [role at Watford] at a young age and it was probably a little bit harsh to lose the job there.

"Then to dive straight back in again - he's a Manchester boy but took the opportunity to go to Plymouth which is a long way from everything he knows - he's really hungry to be successful.

"We always chat, me and Tom, and it's quite nice when you're two young coaches starting a journey, that you share your experiences and how you feel - but we want to beat him tomorrow."
