Luton Town manager Rob Edwards has warned Tahith Chong and Teden Mengi not to 'do anything special' just because they are facing their former club Manchester United this weekend.

The 23-year-old impressed during that season in the Championship and Luton signed him in the summer after their promotion to the Premier League before later signing his fellow United academy graduate Mengi.

"They're brilliant people and they've had a positive impact for us, so the big message
