Erling was right fucked off today, you could see his body language throughout that game
Noticed that. He spent most of the game looking pissed off. Must be annoying in games like that having no proper service aside from aimless crosses.
To be fair to him, though, he spent a lot of the last few minutes legging it about and was on our 6 yard box for their second.

It's.not an overreaction, that is their first away victory of the season, and we haven't really had a great start to the season, we have played Newcastle who may get in the top 4 and got battered for 60 minutes, we played the dippers and lost, we have yet to play spurs, Arsenal or Chelsea in the league, Arsenal have played them all bar usProbably asking a bit much, but there's no need for an overreaction.
We were poor but it wasn't a disgrace, or a disaster. Just a bad game, and we haven't had a year yet in our history without a bad game.
Been a great start to the season, and we're in a great position to make a challenge for the title.

Credit to Brentford. Although I didn’t think they were that great, they caused us a few issues at times.
Our lot should hang their heads in shame. One of the most unprofessional performances I’ve seen in a long while. Lacklustre at best. I hope they fucking stink the place out at the World Cup, every one of them. It’s obvious they were protecting themselves.
I’m not even arsed that we lost. It happens. It’s been coming in recent weeks. It’s the way we lost.

Brentford might have ended up parking the bus but they didn't start the match doing it.
They flew out of the traps and bossed the first 10 mins where the went close to taking lead twice.
Why do we have to do everything at a snails pace? This give the opposition all the time in the world to set up 2 banks of 5.
We need pace and I don't buy the argument that pace is no good against a packed defence.defenders hate players running at them. We had more than enough chances to run at them and unfortunately the wrong man had the ball. (Stones), not his fault he's played out of position
Still our possession stats should look good.

What does he know? ;)They had far more good chances than we did.
Take off your blue-tinted glasses.
Even Pep acknowledged they were the better team
Not blue tinted. Thought we were well below what we can do as has been the case against very deep teams recently. Thought selection was odd and playing Gundo and not Bernie in the middle was giving them a leg up. But I thought they were poor as well - it was a shit watch - and I don’t buy the BBC Phil McNulty narrative that they played us off the park with a no fear attitude.

Shocking all round performance not one player performed anywhere near their potential apart from Ederson who stopped us losing by six goals , he was superb , we have been scraping results for a few weeks now and this result was overdue.
Not interested in the penalty appeals because all of them were highly debateable , and we should not need penalties to beat a mid table team at home , there are few players who need a reality check when they come back from the world cup , i suspect a few of them are believing their own headlines and need a kick up the backside.
Disppointing we now have to stew on this result for 6 weeks before the team can put it right , but no better game then the Dippers at home as an incentive , onwards and upwards.

They played right up against Akanji on purpose.
They cut out Stones and Laporte by going direct in to Akanji.
More alarming was the lack of bravery and awareness of winning the second ball from the surrounding players.
At some stage I saw Gundo and Kev duck out of the way of the ball.
Brentford got their tactics spot on and Pep failed to react during the game, despite obvious failings.
