Brentford (H) 20/12: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Mel Evo]

I’m pretty angry with that lineup. We’re absolutely nailed to the bottom of the league. Travelling for hours is miserable enough. Then he picks an evidently non attacking team that also rewards failure. There’s no conceivable platform for any sort of attacking football, Lopez is hung out to dry, and now we have to watch it all play out in painful slow motion. This bloke is GON with a better personal shopper.

Remember when Edwards hung out João Teixiera out to dry against Derby in 2016?

I fear this has similar vibes for Fer Lopez today.

 

[basher]

I'm pleased that I'm missing the match today (got a Christmas family do to go to)... options might be limited but having to sit through JSL doing the square root of fuck all yet again is more than I can endure...

 

[sycophantia]

Sa far more likely to let any shot on target go straight in, as he's done in any game he's played this season.

Yeah its a shit set of options.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Yeah its a shit set of options.

I genuinely would play Jimmy Storer if he was here.

 

[Dire Wolf]

22 minutes in and not one comment on the game! Must be as thrilling as I expected.

 

[Mel Evo]

This is the wretched filth that was entirely predictable.

It is remarkable how a team full of internationals, including two Brazilian midfielders, is so incapable of keeping the ball, moving the ball forward, playing out from the back, or creating decent goal chances.

Hwang just did a lovely cryff turn

More understandable when 8 of them are asked to play at the back and the other three are strung out miles from the next nearest player.

Frequently my view.
Absolutely baffling.

 

[Hereford Wolf]

Every week you hope for a spark, but nothing seems to change.

 

[b3h]

Free kick on the edge with Andre and Gomes over it sums things up nicely

 

[Muscat]

Lopez is miles off the standard physically.

 

[Muscat]

It's scandalous JSL keeps starting, even in a side this bad. Another appalling display.

 

[jd1981]

Yep you see the good effort v Arsenal is completely academic when you turn in these hopeless efforts v poor opponents

 

[YoungWolf]

Sounds like I did well to go to Bath city then. Similar standard

Better probably

 

[Mel Evo]

They’re offering almost nothing, but it will still be too much. Then too late we’ll make our traditional change to a formation that might give mediocre opposition something to actually think about. Hugely frustrating.

Bath city have won a game or two, I’d say better standard
