STARTING LIFE AT A NEW CLUB WITH SUCCESSIVE 5-0 WINS AND A FIRST CAREER GOAL MIGHT BE A TOUGH ACT TO FOLLOW. But Luke Mbete hopes the best is still to come with Wanderers as he aims to build on a flying start at the University of Bolton Stadium. Mbete’s debut for the Whites following his January loan signing from Manchester City came in the historic victory at Peterborough United which marked Wanderers’ 5000th league game in style. Remarkably, he followed that up with a similar 5-0 scoreline against MK Dons, when he also headed home the first goal of his professional career on his first home appearance for the Whites. It was, briefly at least, too good to last as Ian Evatt’s men saw their winning League One run end at Wycombe Wanderers last weekend when Mbete and their defences were finally breached in a 1-0 loss. But with 15 games left to continue the pursuit of a top-six place, Mbete is confident of bouncing back and building towards what could still be a bigger high by the end of the campaign. “It was a great way to start,” said the young central defender, who slotted seamlessly into Wanderers’ back line following a combination of injury to George Johnston, Conor Bradley’s suspension and the January sale of Will Aimson. “Two 5-0 wins a first goal – not bad. But we look forward now. There are always going to be bumps in the road, like last week, but we’ve got to stay positive and stay together as a team. “All the games we’ve got left are very important and we’re going to go into each and every one of them with a positive mindset. “Back home today our fans are going to be behind us and help us again. We are a good group and hopefully we get to where we want to get to at the end of the season.” Collectively that would be taking a promotion challenge all the I LOVE THE CLUB ALREADY TO BE HONEST AND I’M JUST EXCITED TO HELP THE TEAM AS MUCH AS I CAN. way, while Mbete has a personal opportunity to add more senior appearances to a CV currently showing a taste of first-team action at City – including an outing in the Champions League – and half-adozen Championship games at Huddersfield Town. “That’s what I aspire to do. With the games comes experience, which is something I need and it’s something I look forward to,” added the England U21 international. At Wanderers, Mbete has already matched the number of league starts he made with Huddersfield Town when a loan spell in the first half of the current campaign didn’t live up to expectations. Nonetheless, Mbete still looks back on his time in West Yorkshire as a beneficial one on his career path. www.bwfc.co.uk The Wanderer | 21
