Brentford (H) 18/9/21 Build Up & Match Thread

[Derby Wolf]

Think with RAN his chance comes when Marcal invariably gets his accumulation suspension. He could well come in and make it impossible to drop him. Patience is the order of the day on that one I think.

Just looking at Marcal, and he hasn't scored a goal since 2014, no wonder he looked totally bereft of composure when the ball came to him in the build up to our second goal.

 

[The Bear]

Marcal is probably better defensively, which is fine up against tough wingers, but against the bottom half teams we should be plying RAN.

Marcal can cross better though.

Totally honest I preferred watching Mick's team. Kights Jarvo and raw intent.
We're sort of mid table and extremely neat and boring.
We have the bite of a sloath.
Sorry.

I love Marcal but his crossing is terrible. The peach he put in for the OG against Watford has very much been the exception so far, not the rule.

I loved watching Micks team.. .but you think we're boring atm? I'm afraid there's no hope for you, maybe Burnley would be more your thing?

I used to love Michael Kightly, he shit on us in the end though, but he never hit the heights that he did with us.

In the Championship, yeah. In the PL, not so much

Going back to previous posts regarding the stands and prices, i heard about a year or so ago that the Steve Bull stand has got subsidence, so it must have a re-build, any one else on here heard this ??

 

[Deano]

You get different things from Marcal and RAN. Marcal has played well so far and we haven't struggled to create good quality chances with him in the team so I wouldn't mess with it as it will probably lead to the opposition creating more. RAN will get his chance through loss of form of Marcal/injury/suspension. I don't think there's any point forcing a change there.

We never really heard confirmation either way. If subsidence was substantial it would lose its safety certificate eventually.

Someone saw me and Johnny sitting next to each other, it was all just supposition and malicious rumours.

I heard it was true, that was the cause

Think he's miles out with his Trincao appraisal, no way does he drop out for podence it's more likely to be Traore imo.

Dunno what it is based on (more gut feeling than anything else tbh) but I feel Lage is more likely to have a horses for courses mindset, and might well vary the front 3/4 depending on the opposition.
Either way, having the options is good.
Hwang also looks quick to me.

Shame we can't upgrade him to quick, very quick...

It's still worth getting a membership IMO.

You get to buy earlier than General sale so you have a much better chance of seats in a decent position.

Once general sale comes around you're looking at the flanks or the very front/back.

I did the membership the other day and there’s plenty of tickets available for Saturdays game which I’m suprised at.

however with it being on TV il be watching at home. Will use my few times I’ll be allowed the pass for non TV games
