Brentford (A) - Post-Match Thread

[SidJames]

Perspective.

Sure right now we were not at our Stellar best,and made hard work of the win.

Still...this is the Christmas period,the time for upsets,we saw the Scousers lose last night to a team we put 6 past 48 hours earlier,Chelsea tonight dropped points at home to Brighton.

We have won our last 3 games being nowhere near our best.

That is the sign of Champions.

The performances will get better.

Now lets stuff the Arse

Gutsy performance and fully deserved the win well done lads.

Lets start 2022 with another stellar effort.

Shambolic to watch. Slow motion for 90 minutes. Too many bad performances to mention. Very fortunate they never nicked a goal. The positives are that we wont play so badly again for a long time. MOTM Foden.

Nicked a goal ? They have to get somewhere near it, first.

10 minutes doesn't tire a player out, they do longer warm downs but 10 minutes rest has a big impact on the freshness of the starters come the next game.

Think it was more about not wanting to change the game. We were in control and can be hard to come into a game at 1 nill. Get the points in the bag.

Fuckin hell Phil get rid of that hair

Hard earned win, not at our brilliant best but who cares. Three points is all that matters and you can't complain top of the table with an 8 point lead.

Good to see Phil back in the side and on the scoresheet

Champions win games like this - not at our best but they worked hard and we did well with the Partizan crowd - well done also to our travelling fans, nice to hear them above some of the rubbish they were going on about.

Pitch was shite but they still couldn't stop us ..
Phil, Ake, Laporte and Eddie way out as the best of ours tonight.
Thought Phil edged it but Ake was really good and very composed.
Laporte had a very good game and Eddie made a great save from Ruby..
Brentford very limited even accounting for their injuries and for such a big team they do like to fall down.
Great 3 points and that's all that really matters..
Well done to the traveling blues you were excellent as usual.

Crap performance ffs

Daft innit.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

It's no coincidence that the pitch was soaking in the corners of the end we were attacking in the second half. Stopped us getting round the back and kept them relatively compact in defence.

Plus the grass. Every dirty trick in the book. Never mind.
