We rightly laugh at wendies for having an owner who pumped way too much money into the club. Brentford, the most meh club in London have an owner doing the same with a smaller fan base etc. I don't like Brentford having watched them tonight. Cynical fouls all over the place they seem good at getting away with and lots of simulation. Team full of expensive players but hardly entertaining to watch. Hope they end up like Wednesday. Still, the ref won his side bet unlike me who had 1-1 in the supersix.
No we weren't. We were rubbish tonight. Our passing was rubbish. Couldn't find a man. Their passing was crisp and found a man 99% of the time. We need to be more like them. Their closing down was 100%better than ours as well.
To be fair to Brentford they're spending money they have actually made through player sales, not through fake taxi companies and selling assets to themselves
Didn't see the game you watched. They were not a dirty team, largely cos they had the ball so much they had no need to foul. When they lost it, we gave em it straight back most of the time.
They had 12 corners , Walton made at least 3 brilliant saves . We had no outlet ball for one reason or another , we worked hard no question , passing was usual , plus once they scored they upped their game and had a spring in their step . I don’t think we were disgraced by any means we lost a game of football to a very competent side move onto Saturday .
Brentford made about £60million from Watkins and Benrahma so hardly the same. Fair enough Benrahma hasn’t officially been sold yet but it’s a done deal. They’re spending what they’re generating now. Not before - but still.
Agree we weren't on our game, we dropped our high press back 20 yards. I also think we should be starting victor but can understand you can ruin a young lad by putting too much pressure on him. But it's hard to keep possession when the other team are coming straight through the back of you all the time.
There's absolutely no comparison between the way Brentford and Wednesday are being run. There's barely two other clubs that could be further apart.
