Aren’t truncheons meant to be big though?
Great win. Played some good stuff
Well done to the team today, especially johnson after the abuse.
Going forward today was much better, but the defending including keeper needs not of improvement.

Not sure what his contract situation is like and what his agent/Brentford are telling clubs.
Have a feeling he ends up at Liverpool tbh but he is looking like another great season is ahead for him.
Go and display your lack of understanding of the game to someone who's interested in it, mate.
Says the guy who thinks Maddison is a winger xD
Kulu played great again. Such an important player for us
Expires summer 2026 so classic Tottenham territory next summer
Price aside.....
Is Mbuemo someone that can pick locks or is he just another counter-attack suited player?
If the latter then meh.
He's a bad professional. Often working on a weight loss plan.
Otherwise, yes, he has some talent.
Omg!
Carrie!!!!!
In actual fact, they’re (or at least the ones in Dyfed Powys police are) made to extend. So you flick them out with a bit of force and the baton extends.
They’re growers not show-ers.

"How am I meant to uphold the law with THAT????"
On reflection, something i take away from the game is that we went back to the early season approach of last year, where we go like absolute maniacs in the first 30 minutes or so (there were exceptions, but I felt that's what we were doing in most of Ange's early games).
The problem with that is that there isn't much energy left towards the end of the game - BUT, that's where subs come in. With the likes of Bissouma, Sarr, Gray, Odobert, Spence, Richy (?) from the bench, there is plenty of energy that can be added in the last 20 minutes. I thought Ange did pretty well with subs today.
The games v Utd and Brighton will let us know if we have turned a corner. They are two, top ten teams. We have lost against both previous top ten opponents this season. It will be exciting to see if we can keep up today's approach against those better teams.

Brentford had some really good chances. If we had been unlucky they could have walked away with something. We could also have been 4 or 5 up at halftime.No, unlike some of the other anti-football mobs they tried to play football actual tried to entertain, which football is supposed be an entertainment business……The stokes, West Brom’s & Leicester city’s of the world can do one……..
I still wonder if we could seek him out with the early cross a bit more....... Put a few chances on his head before the back 4 get too set.
Now we have Solanke , that gives us the option .
He holds it up very well
My favourite thing he did today outside of the save was when he caught the ball, he looked to release it quickly for a counter, and actually did it. It made a huge difference.
overall the passing was better and movement off the ball was great.
The high press once again was excellent.
Kulu and Madders are learning to play off each other. Both top class.
Players still struggling with confidence trending in a positive direction
Has anyone seen a heat map yet ? Seems like Ange had Sonny and Johnson more centrally in the attack. Maddison out wide a bit more.
