Brentford (A) 27/12/23 Matchday and Build Up Thread

[Wilf Wolf]

Worth remembering that Frank is a pretty good manager, even if he seems like he kinda sucks as a dude.

Sucks? Chews more like!

 

[Jack Regan]

Doc and Doyle incoming. Wouldn't be surprised to see it for Gomes and Rayan.

Sarabia and Semedo. Strange taking Nelson off.

 

[jdrodrigues]

Bellegarde doesn't seem good enough inho

 

[The Bear]

Other than Neto all of them make us worse though.

The Bueno RAN option is fine too IMO.

Only shown brief flashes so far. Same as Sarabia when he first arrived. Needs time to get going probably

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I'd have kept Sarabia on.

I guess we're managing fitness too though.

 

[Wolf Hunting]

What has GON got against Sasa??

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I think Bueno is a huge drop off.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

What has GON got against Sa??

Eh?

 

[The Bear]

Looks like 3 at CM then.

3-5-2 sort of. Leaves Cunha very isolated though.

He was first choice not that long ago.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Eh?

Think he meant Sarabia

Big step up from Ligue 1 to Prem.

He's got the physical tools, I think he could be very good in time. Kind of getting played all over the pitch at the moment, too, which probably isn't helping him.

Would imagine Neto for Cunha on around 75.

 

[Squeak]

What has GON got against Sa??

Assume you mean Sarabia.... nothing.... but he's a bit of a luxury player who is too casual at times.

I like him.

Super strong.

Doherty playing statues. He’s good at it!

 

[MARKakaJIM]

RAN covered the back post very well this half.

 

[The Bear]

If we can get to 80 mins without conceding I think we'll win. Got to stay alert at the back though.
