Rob Edwards was frustrated Luton did not get the result he felt their performance deserved in a 1-1 draw against 10-man Wolves at Kenilworth Road.<\/p>\n

Luton claimed their first point since earning promotion to the Premier League after Carlton Morris\u2019 penalty cancelled out Pedro Neto\u2019s opener.<\/p>\n

But Edwards believes the Hatters should have converted more of their 20 shots after they failed to take full advantage of Jean-Ricner Bellegarde\u2019s first-half sending off.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m pleased but I think it should have been all three points,\u201d Edwards said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really proud of the players, the performance was excellent, it\u2019s a great day for the club, the supporters were great and the players did everything we asked for to engage the fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe started the game so well, it was probably the best we\u2019ve played since I\u2019ve been at the club. I think the level of the game, the fact Wolves couldn\u2019t get out of their half we completely dominated the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cOverall I\u2019m really happy and proud but we should\u2019ve won.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were really aggressive on the front foot and tried to provoke them and that\u2019s what Kenilworth Road can do.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen they get a man sent off you really want to try and find a way to win but they\u2019ve got quality and Neto\u2019s a top player and we lost the ball cheaply. We gave away a goal but to get something from the game after it\u2019s a positive.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe lads are flat and deflated because we feel that there was a win there for us today.\u201d<\/p>\n

Luton are still searching for their first Premier League win and still sit at the foot of the table.<\/p>\n

Edwards highlighted the difficulty of the league after a lapse of concentration by Tom Lockyer in the 50th minute was punished by Neto, who scored his first of the season.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt shows how good the Premier League is, you have to be almost perfect to get anything from it and today we were close with how we wanted to play but we haven\u2019t won,\u201d Edwards added.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s like a different sport (Premier League) in every way. Everyone is way better (than the Championship), the decision making, the quality, the speed that things happen and the execution is hard to comprehend.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf people look at us as a small club in the Championship then they\u2019ll look at us as a small club in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re up against mammoths, giant clubs and in a way we probably shouldn\u2019t be here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gary O\u2019Neil was disappointed with Wolves\u2019 first-half performance which saw them on the back foot.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI\u2019m extremely disappointed with the first 25 minutes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe knew today would be a test of mentality and Luton were aggressive and we lost every duel, they were faster in midfield.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had to change the shape and get a foothold which I thought we then did.\u201d<\/p>\n
