Brentford (H) - Sat 9th May, 17:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

True but we can’t rely on Bernie and Reijnders to control midfield

Ye agreed, praying we just dominate possession and this matters little

Results this afternoon not favouring Brentford. They need a win.

We need fck 3 points

Brutal team selection. Brentford are no bums.

What were you hoping for regarding the line up?

Pep just doesn’t rate these bench players does he. Rare that they get more than a couple of games on the run even when we have injuries.

A Rag i know saying we are fucked next season due to our aging squad, WTF.

Your first mistake in bold…

Hoping reijnders can do a job today and give us a match winning performance

Raindeer Hattrick incoming with a smiley face

 

[journolud]

You experiencing different here ?

Think it might be better to judge the mood at kick off rather than while the stadium is less than a quarter full

Waiting

For?

 

[bg1968]

We need to pray about set pieces, corners, and Brentford's long throw-ins, especially with the aerial game of Ake, Guehi, Bernardo, Reijnders, Cherki, and Doku.

Is Haaland playing ? He probably clears 50% of our defensive headers and Ake , Guehi and O'Reilly are decent , dont think deadballs and throw ins will cost us today , it will be their pace on the transition

Match day thread could be toxic today , avoid.

Makes a change…

Aston villa getting into final is great news for city that’s going to be a easy 3 points

And Palace play in their European final a few days after the Arsenal game, so they'll be resting their whole starting 11. Whereas Villa will have already played their final 4 days earlier, so they'll probably play a strong team with a few changes and they have much better back up players. So you've actually made the point that Arsenal have got a much much easier game for the last game.

You here ?

Yes you dickhead. I'm in my seat

 

[WesthoughtonJohn]

Odd team selection isn't it \O/????
But here we go again - let's get the win and see what happens.

 

[jimharri]

Sturridge and "big Meeks"

 

[SWPISHOME]

I agree. It fills me with very little hope. Etf has Nico G got to do to get a game?

He played against Everton and looks like he's always running in wet cement, the reality of it all is that he's nowhere near good enough.

We've bought Phillips and Nico Gonzalez and both are not remotely close to being at the standard required.

When Rodri missing we've genuinely nobody to fill in because we have bought poorly in that area of the team.

 

[SatOnTheWall]

This te reminds me of the Newcastle away league cup team. I thought it was a man light in midfield but we played fantastic. Same again today, please, Blue Boys.

Pep just doesn’t rate these bench players does he. Rare that they get more than a couple of games on the run even when we have injuries.

We have some wonderful talent at the club but also a fair few average at best players.
I won't bother naming them, i'm sure we all have our own ideas about the so called 'strength' of our squad & the reality.
