A good point

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Before today's game I'd took a point BUT after we scored why did we not attack their goal?

 

[United Aren't Back.]

He is happy with a point away usually.

 

[Gavlar]

Yep good point. Great for mcb to score and us to come back. We looked dead and buried at ht.

They were a hard, retro kind of team to beat, especially going one down.

Retro is a good way of describing it.
Reminded me of 80's style football, with Wimbledon and Howard Wilkinson's Sheff Wed.
In the 1st half Luton smothered us. We just couldn't get going.

We didn't play that well, Berge and McAtee were really poor on the night but maybe it was the opposition that made them both suffer.

The positives are: At least it's been an education for McAtee tonight, bet he's never played in a match like that before
The other positive is any clubs interested in buying Berge will have all cleared off after tonight.
You can safely assume.....Berge will be staying.

We didn’t attack cos they wouldn’t let us. They dug in hard & stopped us playing football

 

[AWetFlannel]

Think they stopped us, fair play to em.

Because they battered us and we couldn't cope. Front men having to get back and try to stem the tide.

Because football isn’t as simple as some think it is

 

[Jon Bon II]

Snidey, horrible, niggly, dirty side. Reminded me a bit of some of the old South American international teams of the 70' and 80's like Uruguay, Argentina and Chile.

 

[metalblade]

A fair result in the end.

Wimbledon, Millwall, all rolled into one!!

Chile came to Wembley a few years ago and played exactly like Luton did. It’s effective no doubt but, I can’t stand to watch it.

 

[robbiez666]

Very good point, considering. Could easily have come away with nothing. Showed we could hold our own against a really niggly and strong battling team.

I bet Chile didn't finish with zero bookings

 

[nopigfansintown]

We looked a bit nesh and leggy. Got bullied first half but battled better second half. Berge, Lowe, RND, Norwood, Ndiaye tired really badly second half. I'd have brought more subs on earlier. Doyle gave us a platform second half but our forward players (goal aside) had run their race.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

I bet Chile didn't finish with zero bookings

I doubt it too

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Think it was more due to Luton than our lack of intent so benefit of the doubt on this occasion

Missing various players didn't help either

 

[Fatlad666]

Ben Foster to sign anyone. Take a point tonight

 

[Stannington Blade]

It was a good point. They play incredibly physically and to be fair, we stood up to it well.

The first half was essentially with 10 men as well. McAtee looked completely lost. He will be a good player as there were some nice little touches or quick balls but he seemed like he lost possession every time he had it or was ghosted past when he didn't. He won't have ever encountered anything like that in the Prem U23s so it's a learning curve.

Thought McBurnie did well and battled really effectively bringing others in to play. There were some times in the 1st half where he was behind play or on his heels which look really obvious but that's something that will hopefully kick in with a run of games.

Fingers crossed some imodium sorts Wes out, although well done to Amissah!

 

[BladeInIreland]

I was really Impressed with them tbf. Well organised, high energy and a vocal home crowd. Glad we don't play them every week.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Win all home games..69 points... draw all remainingaway games ...22 points...total of 91 points. Top two. Great plan. Season over. Bring on Man ure.

 

[blade too long]

thought the ref let them get away with lots of manhandling of mcburnie one big push in the second half was ridiculous

a point away at a play off team never too shabby
