Brentford (H) 15/4: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Alan]

I guess it came at him quickly and was a one touch or bust chance. Still should be higher though.

Tell that to the 76% of similar chances that got spurned I suppose.

 

[The Bear]

To be honest I think the change in Nunes is the most stark under Lopetegui. He’s absolutely purring.

Only since moving wide right in the last two games. He was his usual inconsistent frustrating self playing centrally. He looked OK wide left previously.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Oh fuck, Mario's hammy? That would not be great.

We have a tidy replacement..

Gomes will keep his place alongside Neves then.

It seems JL is part the way to solving the puzzle though, whatever that puzzle is. The wide right free role suits him

Now is not the time for your "look at me, I'm stoned on the pitch" jokes, Jose.

Sa seems determined to concede, is there a Malaysian betting syndicate involved in this match or something

 

[Wolvensam]

Has Sa got a fucking bet on a Brentford goal?

 

[Jinky]

Considering Sa hasn’t had much to do today, he’s still managed to make me feel uncomfortable.

 

[Del Woppio]

Ha, I was just thinking that I'm sure I've seen some outrageously expensive "I'll give my kidneys to charity if Hodge plays another minute in the league" type posts

Ask Ivan Toney.

Probably just complacency being 2-0 up.

Jinx!

Thankfully Toney had BTTS NO

 

[Wolvensam]

We’re in the position we’re in because the previous manager was an absolute moron, commentators.

 

[Alan]

If one of our players even slightly fucks up, this board will tell you about it.

 

[Jinky]

Jinx!

Yeah?

 

[Alan]

That was weak as piss from Toney. I'd be fuming if one of ours gave up on a ball like that when down 2-0.

 

[t3ch]

Yeah?

Not you, Velma

 

[Alan]

Not you, Velma

Harsh on Velma
