[forzagranata]

Massive respect for Luton.

They work and put up a fight and put themselves on the line.

Maximum effort is the minimum requirement.

[123EasyasBFC]

I would be able to accept losing any games if our team put in the same effort Luton put in week in week out.

They keep themselves in games and give themselves a chance

Fair play, last thing Luton want to be doing is moving to a new stadium

[Vegas Claret]

What you expecting from a 19yr old kid may i ask?

he gives the ball away 90% of the time he has it, he plays for Man United.

[morninbob]

Lokonga and Barkley have been immense, both would walk in our midfield.

[ElectroClaret]

Barkley clips the bar.
FT

[HahaYeah]

Phew!

They have their game in hand next v Liverpool on Wednesday.

Tbf, their new stadium is going to be even further/closer to the centre of their town - not going to some random industrial estate or anything outside of the town.

[dandeclaret]

Good unity, good identity, great work ethic from Luton. Barkley absolutely outstanding.

They're not short of quality either. With Barkley and Lokonga in the middle just goes to show the importance of having ready made Premier league class and experience

[Burnley Ace]

Luton playing like they mean it.
Wrll done them. Left us behind as a team.

They are where we were 5+ years ago, lots of running round, catching teams unawares, desperate defending and the crowd really loud and supportive, but Utd could have scored a bag full this afternoon.

The most significant difference to how we played using Dycheball tactics is they transition to attack more fluidly, it’s not all long ball to the big men up front

[StayingDown4Ever]

Phew!

They have their game in hand next v Liverpool on Wednesday.

Good luck to them. I hope they win it and Everton join us in the Championship.

[Vegas Claret]

Good luck to them. I hope they win it and Everton join us in the Championship.

they will get a big chunk of those points back I reckon

[Murger]

Luton have everything we don’t.

[Hapag Lloyd]

Good luck to them. I hope they win it and Everton join us in the Championship.

Are you confident that Rovers will stay up ?

[NewClaret]

How many chances did United want to miss tonight? So many 1v1’s. They’ll score all those vs us, guaranteed.

Stop being so negative!

I meant for them as a playing side the advantage they have having the fans so close to them. I just think they will lose some of what makes Luton Luton by moving.

Abit like turf moor being a nice place to play at now

It’s a shame we couldn’t get the lokonga deal done, him and Berge would be class as a pair

[warksclaret]

I thought Berkeley and Lokongo were outstanding today, against a United that whether you like it or not have been on some run recently. Genuinely feel the Luton crowd is worth a goal in every game

[Vegas Claret]

Bayern lost again, every chance Tella is going to win the league again !

[123EasyasBFC]

Man Utd could of also been out of sight today with the chances they created but maybe it’s something about Luton’s fight that affords them some luck in games

[Burnley Ace]

Just heard the Abel Ahmedhodzic view: “”It was a fair tackle”, well that’s brought a smile

[Westleigh]

he gives the ball away 90% of the time he has it, he plays for Man United.

Just check how many goals he’s scored and provided this season ,he’s worth 10 of any of our players.5 goals and 3 assists.

And just to add as a footnote ,Man Utd paid £420,000 for him .

[Woodleyclaret]

Luton are and Sheffield United are Alehouse brawlers and offer nothing except bluster con and cheat .If I had them across the road and with a free ticket I would never go on.Excellent results today .

As much as people (usually non-Burnley fans) like to tell everyone how anti-football, hoof-ball, basic Sean Dyche's Burnley played, we didn't play much different to the current Luton team. It's maybe a hybrid of Luton's intensity, "up at 'em", passing into the channels, etc. with a bit of Sheffield United's physicality imo. It wasn't that bad a style to watch from an entertainment aspect.

Luton outpassed and outplayed us a few weeks ago.

[Burnley Ace]

We had more shots, more shots on target and a higher Xg.

[warksclaret]

The reason SD managed to keep us in the PL for the great majority of those 8 or so years, was that we were more like Luton in terms of hard work, fight and playing for each other rather than the current Burnley, where at least 3 or 4 players each week show nothing like the determination and fight required to survive

[Swizzlestick]

We had more shots, more shots on target and a higher Xg.

Luton had more shots, our xG was very similar and I'll defer we had a couple more shots on target. Otherwise, they had 62% possession, almost double the number of successful passes we had and won on every single duel metric - ground, aerial etc.

I have defended the team more than most this season, but it was more in response to the quoted tweet that Luton were just an 'alehouse' team.
