I must admit I was watching the penalty with foreboding as that aspect of his game hadn’t impressed me - slow straight down the middle! - thank f*** he scored!

He makes the run-up ‘stutter’ as the ‘keeper transfers his weight having committed to direction, so Thiago is getting better at focusing on that, allowing placement over power. It was also noticeable that Henderson and Jensen were following up faster than any Newcastle player in the event of a save. I’d assume this is all part of a training routine.

I think if Hendo had followed up a save by the keeper he would have been penalised for encroachment since he enters the D before the kick is taken.

Massive game for IT on Thursday in terms of his World Cup ambitions/chances.
On the back of a superb season so far, an impressive performance/goal(s) against PL Champions elect in this week's biggest game would surely send a message that Ancelotti couldn't ignore. (And get noticed by the Brazilian public).

IITWT!!!!
You can do it!! Come on!!!

Unlike Tony and Bryan, who I expected to score every penalty, I always think Thiago is going to miss, I think it's something about his body language, I don't know if it's just a ruse!

5 tonight will put him level with Haaland for the Golden Boot.........
And Haaland got injured last night too......
💪

TNT did an interview with him where he states his brother got him into football (watching united)

i’m giving it until monday for the lazy journalist to title a headline with ‘Brentford ace reveals club he wants to play for’
 

Igor Thiago

Felt he could have made a huge statement for a Brazil place with a goal against Arsenal

Couple of chance that from where I was sitting in the stadium looked like he should have scored

However watching the highlights they weren’t easy

But that last one - hit the target!
 

Igor Thiago

He worked his socks off the entire game, both offensively and defensively. Some of the chances he got in the second half, got into shooting position after running and battling for half of the pitch! He needs some rest, the amount of minutes he has played so far are starting to impact him IMO.

One thing that he has improved massively is his link up play, either flicks on long balls, or when the drops back to the middle dragging his defender, then plays the ball to the space for a teammate.
Not the final product yet of what seems to be a mix of two big skills of his predecessors (Toney and Wissa). But getting better every game.

Disagree to some extent. One of those players that gets better when in the rhythm of playing regularly.

After the 10 day gap between Sunderland and Chelsea, it took him a couple of games to get back up to speed away at Villa. Now back in beast mode.

Having said that, wouldn’t start him against Macclesfield but bring him on for 15-20mins.
 

Igor Thiago

Good performance but delayed shots on a couple of occasions that cost him a goal. Probably should have squared to Dango for an easy finish late on but you can’t blame a striker for being selfish and it was good take from Mosquera.
 

Igor Thiago

Fantastic, unlucky, wanted it so much and it just didn't work out. On another day he'd have had a hattrick. Far from what @Beelieve! said, frankly if the Brazil hierarchy watched that and thought "nah, give me Richarlison or Gabriel Jesus", fk em. But surely he gets a call and a try in March. They'd be mad not to.

Based on the 3rd round squad, I'd be rather surprised if he's in the squad at all.
 

Igor Thiago

WOW. Fair bloody play. Thats great work - he loves it here

Back the Big Man.
Team Thiago.
Toney mark Two.

Barring a few miscontrols, from slightly overhit passes, I've not seen him look anything other than good for us.

If we sort out the rest of the midfield/attack, which bluntly has been a mess/mish-mash of players (or just playing minutes for fitness if you prefer), then he'll be fine.

Proved the doubters wrong comprehensively and now he's signed a new deal, rather than playing the game of letting his deal run down, and keeps us in a strong position should anyone want to poach him.
Love this guy.
:bounce:
 

Igor Thiago

I did not see that coming but what a statement! Has the potential to be an all time great for us if he sticks around a few years. His finishing, pace, physical presence, work rate and touch are all absolutely top level and it's a privilege to watch him play for Brentford.
 

Igor Thiago

Wow ! We moved pretty quickly there to protect arguably our biggest asset !! Well done to the powers that be and no doubt a pay rise for Senor Thiago !!
