Brentford (H) | Post-Match Thread

Diverting attention away from post match/pre world cup breakdown... Is Ivan Toney a good player or just played out of his skin today. I thought he was a consistent threat. Especially that volley he hit out of nowhere. So many chances...

I actually though he was ordinary today and that showed just how poor our back line was.

Our CB's don't like it up them, not the bravest, Dias apart.
 
Bad day at the office. We’ve had them in the past usually versus Crystal Palace and will have them again. Sometimes I think Pep makes too many changes and could use subs more but look at what we have won.

We’ve lost 2 games out of 21 ( I think) this season so we are well set. Our team v Fulham weren’t thinking of the World Cup. Perhaps today was an off day.

Now we have to hope that our squad is not too effected by this stupid World Cup.

Decent every time I have seen him. Then again Callum Wilson has been decent too.
 
Akanji didn't need protection from the midfield, it was by-passed with the long ball.

His job was to win his aerial battles and he lost every one.
I think he is an absolutely outstanding 4th or 5th CB for us..... not in the same class as Dias which make todays decision staggering.
Rodri slowed everything down today as well. It's tough to blame one player but we'd have played so much better with someone else (Phillips - too early probably today, Bernie, Gunda in that position) Rodri is a great player but slows us down big time in games like this today. They bypassed the midfield so a CDM wasn't needed at all really
Well played Eddie. Might have shut some idiots up for a while - maybe not though
Erling terrible! I recon he can be excused a game or two though. Nice break for him coming at the right time
And for the Grealish haters - we wouldn't have got countered half as much today if he'd have played so would have probably not lost. That's why he plays. He keeps possession. There's no point arguing with people who don't really understand the tactics of football on that though. All they're interested is Goals, assists. now, now, NOW
Anyway, we'll be fine. Can anyone really think Arsenal will be strong enough mentally when it gets serious. They'll defo bottle it. We could do with a full back mind you. Gomez and Rico not ready yet. Hopefully Walker comes back from the WC fit
