Brentford Match Thread

[gw_leics772]

Genuine question. Was that goal down to shit goalkeeping, looked like he got to the right place and still let it in

KDH isn’t very good. 
 

People slammed Perez but at least he could pass a football. Praet isn’t spectacular but again, he can pass a football. 
 

We’ve fallen so far from what we were. 
 

If we don’t change Brendan, we’re done. If we don’t go this season, we’ll likely go next. We’ve seen this happen to so many clubs. 
 

We are awful. 

KDH is massively, and I mean massively overrated by our fans, because he's young and came through the academy. He's one-dimensional, he has no right foot, and he can barely shoot. He doesn't suit our squad at all. He may have some potential, but I just can't see it. One good pass or one good move every 5-6 games, then largely anonymous for the rest.

No shots on target. Need to make positive changes before the usual 60 or 70 mins. Not watching game but perhaps Iheanacho and Mendy 

[Izzy]

I'm off for a kip. I'm drained. This team suck the life out of me.

 

Fingers crossed for a miracle second half

Just feels like we’re watching the slow and painful decline of our football club right in front of our eyes.

Only for possible red cards. 

It just shows how useless it is. It should be correcting all errors.

[BACKO]

Tete, KDH and Daka completely anonymous.  Barnes not much better.  Wilf cant pass.  You simply can't perform with half your outfield players performing like that.  Ricky P looks good!!

Out and about today so can’t watch a stream. How avoidable was the goal?

For any team above Sunday league?

 

Very avoidable.

How are we so technically poor? Castagne, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndidi & Daka take the absolute piss with how bad they are technically. 
 

Ndidi much better than he’s been for a long time defensively and miles better than Mendy. Stick Tielemans in and we might have had a chance. Many of their better opportunities including the lead up to the goal have come from us having to skip midfield and play crap balls up to Maddison in the hope he can do something with it. 

Confidence will be a factor.  I think also perhaps if dont believe in the strategy then an edge gets taken off as the belief is gone.

We've been OK. Wilf has been immense which is nice to see. Ricky starting to find his groove. 

 

Tete hideous. Playing effectively with 10 men. Always gonna be up against it. 

Agree. Tete is completely useless. Yet another one footed player. It's so obvious what Barnes, KDH and Tete will do each time.

You can't judge our wingers under this manager.. Every time Banres or Tete get the ball they are having to try and beat 2 or 3 players to get a cross or shot in. where are the overlapping runs coming from?

Got no attacking play, Rodgers seems scared to tell them to go for it, funnily enough getting all players attacking is what got us high scoring wins against Tottenham and Villa, reverts to barley getting players supporting attacks and we do absolute nob all.

 Castange and Ricardo offer no support, not even an attempt to get into space. 
 

Ndidi keeps blasting the ball at Maddison and he loses it.

 

The corner for the goal came from the players reverting back to passing around no in dangerous positions when a boot up field would be more suited.

[Hammo]

Just so boringly predictable, isn’t it?

 

 

[Kasey Keller]

We are doggo, no way is there 3 shltter teams than us.

[foxes_rule1978]

Brentford pushing top six, we are trying to avoid relegation… how are they so much better than us now? terrible

I'd say it's pretty rapid to be fair.

Possible tasty local derby next season, v Derby County?

Castagne has to support the attack by overlapping. It would draw one of those two defenders away, giving Barnes more space.

Yep you’re right, he’s probably under orders not to overlap, I don’t see Ricardo venturing forward either

No shots on target….again. Ffs. We’re overdefending and overpassing.

Our tactical genius will get this sorted , his ability to rescue us from losing positions is legendary . Just bring Soumare on at 68 minutes - sorted

2 tackles, 4 clearances, 3 interceptions, 7 recoveries

Much better! That's incredible numbers for one half.

For the 1st time in my life I have more chances of winning the lottery then Leicester winning again

[Chester Dontlie]

I reckon not many fans fancy a Brazil t-shirt these days 

[Fazzer 7]

So soft so easy to beat. They're lacking in just about everything, every department, no desire no grit or determination just utter shit. 

[ARM1968]

Brentford 🤣.  Let’s make some excuses. 
 

We look inept across the whole field of play. Good job we’ve got an amazing coach. Imagine how bad we’d be otherwise. 

[so1]

Where's Iheanacho? He should be on the field NOW. Our attack is making me ill.
