Brentford, A Match Thread

[copunk]

Getting absolutely murdered in Midfield, their pressing is scary, surely they have to run out of steam at some point

My first game. Thought we always played like that!

The Bee's don't stop, what are they on?

We have been underwhelming so far but we've just come back from a midweek trip to Moscow where most of the same team played a draining 3-4 and Brentford will be one of the most energised and hard working teams we'll play all year. 

 

This was never going to be easy. 

Agreed. Hence why trying to soak up pressure and play over the top of the press is a decent tactic imho. 

[Bazly]

There must be long odds on this game staying 0-1

[Blanchflower78]

Surely we can't be this bad second half?

[PhillippaT]

wrfwt Nacho?

That where you have to be dynamic as a manager and not have a single linear way of playing no matter what team you put out there. We have the quality in the squad to rotate, surely there's a better way to approach this outfit? we ain't playing Man City here.

Need Nacho to help in midfield more or get another body in there.

Royal jelly

Natcho still has the first touch of someone trying to thread a needle wearing thick gloves.

[turlo]

Nacho wins the ball and has 3 Brentford on him instantly

[Ric Flair]

I think we need KDH on and then start to pick them apart against the press.

Fear the spicey nacho

[StanSP]

Tielemans injured

 

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Rope a dope.

let them tire themselves out then destroy them with Daka and Barnes.

 

 

More likely it’ll be Hamza who comes on though 😂 

[Bazly]

This game needs Perez

[Milo]

Uh oh Youri

[EastAnglianFox]

I can see Brentford really struggling towards the back end of the season, no way can they keep this up into Feb/March time.

 

They will be more than safe but can picture something like finishing with 7 or 8 straight defeats like seems to happen to many newly promoted teams that start well

Playing out at the back isn’t going to work against these 

Or anyone, it never does for us.
