Brentford (H) 10/2: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Squeak]

So last week it was 10 mins at Chelsea and with blatant time wasting from Brentford, we only get 6.

Fraser has done even less than Bellegarde, he's just getting less criticism (rightly) because he's a kid.

 

[Squeak]

Jeff Shi is a large factor in why we have lost today. To have no viable replacement for Cunha when he went off injured says it all. So, so naive to just think none of our players will ever get injured. Complete failure of a transfer window (again).

Don’t put any of the blame on Gaz, really. He can only work with what he’s got. Maybe he could have gone Fraser for Cunha instead of Bellegarde, or maybe he could have switched shape and put Doyle on for an extra body in the middle - but I think he (and all of us) are expecting more than nothing from Bellegarde.

Sure blame Shi. Chinese New Year after all.

Woah woah woah.

Fraser’s done pretty well in the circumstances, I feel.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Reguillon, Pinnock and Collins have been very good for them today.

When?

When?

Did well to play Sarabia in down the right channel at one point!

If I’d known there’d be a quiz I would have taken notes!

@MARKakaJIM back to troll with his, not tedious at all, laughing emojis to top off the afternoon. Good stuff.

Fraser has been fine. The shape was much much better second half. Second goal just killed it.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Flekken diving on the floor everytime he catches is slightly galling.

Lemina has had an afternoon to forget.

He has literally done nothing (other than play the ball to Sarabia once....).

But it isn't his fault, don't get me wrong, the fact we have had to throw him on at half time in the desperate hope he might do something is the fault of the board.

They’ve all been at it all game. They’ll call it “game management”, where as we’ll call it “cheating”.

6 minutes is laughable, but we could be playing for another 60 minutes and wouldn’t score. One of those days.

Yeah, and i'd applaud Sa for doing similar.

Time./
Lose our home scoring record. 18 games consecutive scoring.
Boo.

Dan's fault for bringing the quality of it to our attention.

Neto nullified today. So one footed
When he's on the right (where he normally is) simply show him down the line and don't let him cut back onto his left.

Combined with Tony saying that they hadn't won outside of London in 11 months. I think the pair of them need some time on the naughty step...

A huge difference is that we had to take the game to Brentford, Neto is outstanding on the break. Makes me wonder how good he'd be for a side that dominates possession.

Makes me wonder how good he'd be on the left. Let him switch when he wants to during the game.
