Dean Lewington believes MK Dons will benefit from their Premier League test against Everton.
“It was a valuable experience,” Lewington told MK Dons PlayerHD. “The way they play is something we aspire to and we said before the game that it’s going to be a massive learning curve for us.
“As good as it was in terms of us defending and our defensive shape, it was good to watch them and learn what they do.”
“When we find it difficult to break teams down and find problems, how do they go about it? We told the young boys to watch how they do it and to try and learn.
He said: “Overall I think it was a good test for us. There were some good bits but obviously some things we need to work on.
Despite proving more than a match for Ronald Koeman’s men at times during Tuesday’s contest, the Dons were beaten 3-1 by the Merseyside outfit – Lewington, though, feels positives can still be taken.
