Brentford (A) | Post Match Thread

It's weird how I dreaded this game months ago.. didn't see Brentford game being easy.. thankfully it didn't matter.

But that game should be seared in the memory of the first team since Brentford is almost exactly how Inter play and we couldn't slice them open but they sliced us open and did the double against us.

We have stuff that needs fixing for the CL final!

It'll be an almost entirely different starting 11.
Stop the worrying.

Not a chance. Bernie has got that nailed down.
Only open decision is who will start between Walker and Ake.
My preference who be Walker against the Rags and Ake against Inter.

Ake or Akanji, and the latter gets the nod for me

We all know this team performs better when they have momentum and playing a busy schedule. This has been nothing but an interruption to our good form. Hopefully one game will be enough to get our form back for Milan. That’s the most important one. Grealish, Rodders and Kev have hardly played. They’ll need game time to get back to top levels again.

Today was like mid season with all that possession & hardly anything created.

I really hope Pep knows what he's doing with regards to motivation & momentum.

Also Gomez is horrendous!

Meaningless game in the scheme of things and people start calling people nonces!!!
Fuck me, it'll be all out civil war on here if we lose the finals

We had our reserves out mate. Nothing needs fixing.

Just get back the 40m and move on, in the best interests of both parties

No bastard on here wanted Gundog here after his first season ;-)

Ehh? Look at the players who played today! 8 of that team will be nowhere near the starting 11 in either of the finals

No fcuks given unless it our casual run-in impacts on the two finals.

I don’t believe it will.

Fine margins, difficult decisions though. We lose them and Pep would have a hard job it living down. We win them and he’s the all conquering hero with the CL monkey off his back.

Mahrez usually likes being the center of attention with the other stars out.

Can only think it was a sulking performance knowing he will be lucky to get a bit part against Rags and Inter Milan.

Phil has done his own chances good.

Exactly.

Mahrez knows he isn’t playing in those games.

Seen his arse.

Another Cancelo.
