Brentford H Match Thread

[Wilfcho]

Its not a back three or back 5, its Amartey rb, castagne rw, kdh 10 and Maddison lw

[KFS]

**** me my therapist is going to be a millionaire by the end of May.

I know it looks defensive. But presumably it's about the WBs bombing in to provide width. As we have no viable wingers available. We need cracking games from JJ & Timmy will sort it.

I think it’s gonna work out to be a 3-5–1-1 

That's how the BBC has it:

Looks like a Rodgers team, smells like a Rodgers team, I'm guessing it may play like a Rodgers team.

Amartey over Soyuncu really is a massive concern on Cags part, I was hoping last season was just a one off and that the summer he would find his feet again. Is he lacking fitness?

I don’t think it’s that. 
 

Its more to do that we don’t have Barnes. 

We don’t have to resort to playing 7 defensive players Vs Brentford because Barnes is injured.

 

Oh well. Just hope we can knick a goal early on.

[kingfox]

Should be playing 4-3-1-2 instead of having three at the back.

Amartey RB and castange RW? 

Hope so

[kristianity77]

Oddly, considering all the Doom and gloom going on this summer, it would just be us to romp this 4 or 5 nil 

[SafewayFox]

Such a shame but Cags needs to go doesn’t he?

 

If after a good pre-season and you’re behind Amartey in the pecking order….somethings got to change 🙄

[turlo]

Should be playing 2 up top or 2 CAMS behind Vardy eg Praet and Madders behind Vardy with KDH &Wilf in midfield. Youri isn't signing a new deal and should be benched

[TrentFox]

I’m probably in the minority, but I think that’s as good a team/formation as he could put out today 🤷

[MPH]

It doesn’t matter if it includes no new players. that’s a strong lineup but should be able to win

[winteriscoming]

Really don’t get playing 1 up front at home to Brentford. You play that system away at Liverpool or Man City.

Another bizarre team selection which could cost us points.

I want to positive about the start of the season but cant disagree.

[dmayne7]

Love that Brendan is trying to address some of the negativity around the season by picking a really positive line up... Oh, oops.

Think someone at the BBC had a few drinks before they made this
