Brentford (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

There were no legs and no energy in that midfield, made Brentford play tiki-taka like Barca, and Mbeumo dragged our midfield around like prime Messi.
 
I know the subs will be blamed but ultimately we drew that because of Akanji switching off twice.
The CH's are looking porr because they have no effective CDM in front of them, they are always in the 'wrong' position.

Kova was doing a pretty decent job of it, Gundo didn't. Thats why we didn't win that game.

I'm not pointing the finger at individuals, there was no shortage of effort.
 
It's not Gundogan coming on that's the problem. It's the players not coming on that should have before HIM!! Like players who can run and close opposition players down.
I'd have been ok with Gundogan coming on for Haaland and then some actual legs in midfield. Then we could play the extra passes that we didn’t against West Ham. Instead we continued to attack.
 
Definitely a momentum-killer for Erling. Terrible body language tonight, but totally understandable when he's been continually running into space and not getting the ball, over the past god-knows-how-long?

Phil suddenly given the confidence- and energy-boost from 2 goals, then subbed?

You really have to wonder about Pep's (lack of?) man management...
Baffled by that he was on a hat trick too.if he brought on a midfielder fair enough
 
I was absolutely devastated when that equaliser went in my Mrs looked at me like I was insane and throughout the terrible run I barely batted an eyelid but for some reason that absolutely killed me. Bed alarm set for 5.30 up the blues
 
Still a bit fragile at the back and to be honest I would have taken a draw before the game. We are looking better going forward but we need energy in midfield, sadly Gundo is done. Brentford always difficult away. Just a sickner to draw after being 2 up but nothing new this season.
On a positive 4 matches undefeated, will leave it at that.
