Brentford (H) - PL | Post Match Thread

Delighted to get out of that with 3 points. Far from our best but we are winners. You don't win leagues without winning these kind of games. I take it as a positive, stops you getting too complacent, having to work hard for it.

Credit to Brentford too, they come and played.

Well played Brentford. Really gave us problems and had a go.
But thought we were great second half and should have ended with 4 at least. Very good contest.

Hard fought game that,very impressed with Brentford

Good win, tough game. Gvardiol was excellent when he arrived but they are a dangerous side for us - well coached too. Other than minutes in his legs, I was surprised we persevered with Kyle, but pace on one side and control on the other can create those overloads Pep loves.

Pity for Haaland. So many players screwed up just when he was in great positions.

We still have a lot of improving to do but we are having a great start to the season.

A good comeback win. Our squad still shaking off the rust but controlled the second half to a large degree. Dippers lost proving no easy games in the PL (except Southampton maybe ?).

Bloody Hell, that was a hard watch.

Walker with a near braindead moment near the end.

Looked like we were carrying some passengers today.

Fucking hate international breaks. Just fuck them off. City over England every time for me!!

4 wins out of 4. Can't grumble at that.

Haaland is a beast. Off to the pub!!

We might not have a harder home game all season, always a fucking scrap with Brentford. Defence looked really shaky today, Stones in particular. Erling looks like he could beat his first seasons total the way he's started, what a beast

A bit all over the place 1st half (especially in defence and CM). Much better after the break.

Haaland and KDB were very good and Rodri and Gvardiol coming on steadied the ship. How we didn't get at least a couple 2nd half I'll never know.

First half we were lucky not to concede 3 or 4, second half we were unlucky not to score 3 or 4, Pep's half time subs worked as were totally in control in the second half and Brentford hardly threatened, big win with the dippers losing and we've two big games ahead of us.
