Brentford (H) | Post-Match Thread

Deserved nothing from the game.

I cannot get over how bad our defending long balls was. It’s fucking embarrassing that we don’t have a CB who can head a fucking football. Their fucking keeper is taking free-kicks on the halfway line FFS.

This Stones at RB experiment needs fucking off once and for all. We have a CB playing RB. A RB playing LB and a LB on the bench.

Anyone who thinks we are running away with this league is fucking deluded. I could count on one hand how many top PL performances we have put in this season and Arsenal are more than a match for us on current form.

i didnt see any problems with any of the VAR calls - take off your blue bias and you’ll see the ref got every major decision correct

The last goal, and the almost hat trick goal, had Kev, Gundo and Haaland as the only players to bother getting back. Took our actual central defenders minutes to bother to show up. This one is on the defense.

What a steaming bag of dog wank.

It was coming. Been average for weeks now. 1 sub???

Been coming for weeks, we are nowhere near as good as we should be. Pep has us set up all wrong from the start ecery other week so ends up having to fix the shape in the 2nd half.

Haaland was shite today and should be kicking himself. Get the fuck up off the floor

Gundogan is rarely the answer imo

Gundo is a cracking player to be able to bring on as a sub.

Unprofessional from a lot of the players with their eye on the World Cup. Cancelo is having a terrible season. Kev another stinker. Haaland had no service. Stones is pathetic at RB, especially going forward. Arsenal huge favourites for the title as they have had a more difficult run of fixtures and are going to be 5 points clear.

A little hasty there. It’s only 14 games in, we’ve a tricky tie at Wolves tonight so nothing guaranteed there and you have a much stronger squad than us. We are more vulnerable to injuries to key players than you. I fully expect you guys to win the league again comfortably. Our aim is to secure top 4.

Disjointed. Disappointing. Disinterested (certainly in the opening 20 when city players looked like they had their minds on this stupidly timed world cup and Brentford were having a party). Sure we can criticise Brentford for abject time wasting but we waited far too long to change it. If we had won taking cancelo off it would have looked inspired. As it was it lost us a point. Terrible.

The second Brentford goal is how we used to break a loooong time ago.

Hard to break like that when there’s 11 opposition players parked in their own box most weeks..

Bernardo wasted for most of the game. Missed his drive and energy and isolated out wide. Created few real chances compared to Brentford
