I also thought Pontus’ distribution was exceptionally good today. Really classy. Although he had no choice as Zanka was always giving him a sideways ball, rather than taking it forward himself !I'm now beginning to see his worth. This division really suits him. In the Championship, I felt he was a bit of a liability, however on the showing so far this season, I think he's been exceptional
Totally agree, Best performance in a Brentford shirt tonight. I think his decision making has approved so much this season and seems to have cut out the fly in with no chance of winning the ball moments.
Agreed, did things I've not seen from him
Definitely a strong argument for them being one of the best teams at the moment but not sure they will ever be one of the worlds best clubs… horrible fan base, dubious problematic ownership, bought success as just a handful of reasons.
Team or club. Its just the quality and depth of squad is scary. To be able to cope without Rudiger, Mount, Ziyech and Thiago Silva and not miss them. Their young defender on his 1st start was amazing
Completely agree mate.
The team is impressive
Didn't have a problem when he played against us.
Not his job
Mendy has a nice permanent tattoo in his face now from that Jansson shot straight into his face
He seems to have got over the injury problems that dogged him last season. He has steadily improved since then and I agree this was his best game for us. Lets not forget how influential a captain he is too. Inspired signing to help get us up to the PL and has looked the part in the tough games we have just come through.
"The Brentford player visited a supporter pub at Earls Court before kick-off and then marched towards the stadium alongside the other fans. With him as extra support, he had, on the day in honor, teammate and Norwegian national team player Kristoffer Ajer."
And the mate is Ajer…
Looking at that photo outside I wouldn't be in that crowd without a mask - inside or outside. We can't afford to have games cancelled due to covid.
Ajer thinking "sh*t he's gonna do someone in training "
it's coming v Leeds
If it does it'll be very difficult for him to do the "No Celebration" celebration consider how it's been a long time coming.
Not something I count myself, but had a quick look and it is circa 3.25 from 72 apps ..............feels like almost that much this season to be honest !
That's a branch of Barclays Bank in the background!
446 per 100k at the moment have covid across the UK, so less than 200 people (on average) in the whole 40k stadium last night. How many of that 200 would he be in close proximity to? Who knows.
Assume he's double jabbed too, as 90%+ of our squad are......
No wonder we have the highest rate of covid in this country with that response.
I live in Ireland and we have much more stringent restrictions still in place, including masks in many settings, I'm happy wearing mine. I think you may have read meaning into my post that isn't there.
