Today has hurt because I really feel we should have won.
I love Eddie but I feel he should have been able to see that Burn was getting targetted and should of been subbed at half time - that has cost us.
However, if you'd offered me 4 points from Villa and Luton, I'd of taken it at the start of the week.
Very conflicted feelings after today :|
The frustration is that we didn't build on last week's result.
Plus, conceding 4 at home to a team in Luton's position (doesn't matter how welll they played, they're where they are for a reason) is poor. It just is. you'd be disappointed conceding 4 at home to anyone.
Valid points. Luton have hit the purple patch of their season and they did play very well. I agree with the comment on the other thread that we were out muscled in midfield and big Joe could’ve made the difference today.
Having watched the game you have to be happy with a point but we were (literally) a buttock width from a winner with that shot near the end of the match.
I have NEVER been sold on Dan Burn, I have always thought this guy is a good back up for injuries, or off the bench for impact. He's cost us many games due to his lack of pace and awareness, yet ALWAYS gets an automatic start.Quote:

Got it in one, I've always felt the same about him. Handy player to have off the bench.Quote:

What hes not is a full back, that should start every game.
Only way he could start is if we play 3 at the back, like we did in the later stages against Villa. He got roasted by Baily, and then Howe switched to 3 at the back when he brought on Tino. That worked well.
Conculsion: Dan Burn should never start as full back in a back 4 again.
Till the Forrest game, where he will XDQuote:
