A bit harsh he's not been that bad. 

He’s much better further forward.  His deficiencies are exposed in midfield.

It's the most involved Isak has been away from for ages. He's everywhere 

Barnes is much more willing to come into the middle when Isak drifts. Makes it harder for the oppo.

Good half from the lads. Murphy and Longstaff been good and Bruno excellent in

midfield. We need to take our chances mind.

 

I think Barnes needs a run in the side - would score/create more

goals than Gordon. 

 

 

Murphy has been the opposite of Almiron. His general football a bit sloppy down the right, but he's got two assists.

Feels like a must win from this position.

Sloppy defending from us. But just seen they have an xG of 0.13 and have bagged 2. We’re only 0.89. But then Isak’s chance wasn’t even a shot. So won’t be accounted for. 
 

Really need to press on and win this. 

If its true that they have 0.13 xg then that stat is meaningless to me. The shots they scored from were both from good positions.

We’ve got five goals in three halves since he came back in.  He’s not the greatest footballer in the PL but his directness can be effective.

Yeah I dont mind Murphy, good squad player.

It’s off Livescore and their one seems incredibly stingey. So I’d imagine it is higher. 
 

Wasn’t really the point I was making. More that it was sloppy from us, ruthless great finishes from them and we’ve had the better of it chances wise.

Don't like him putting his hands behind his back when Mbuemo is running at him. Restricts his movement to actually defend.

 

 

Yes, that was one of them.

Don’t get the short corner bringing him out of the box

Definitely seems to be our best option on the right. I don't get it though, Gordon should be making that position his own for the good of the team. Just seems to play with a bit of a chip on his shoulder when he's on the right.

Hoping our strong bench is the difference maker here and we get to hear that wanker Franck have a whinge about it post match. Howay!

[McDog]

Tim Howard just said Brentford were better? Too many footballs to the head lad.

[timeEd32]

5-3 win incoming

Brentford tunnel giving off strip club vibes

That idiot hates us.

Brentford’s stadium is fucking awful. Another shite new build.

[soyt]

Joelinton is quite leggy today

[The Bonk]

Holy shit, so lucky Popey 

[McDog]

Jebus  that was fortunate.

[andyman]

What a wild save
