tarn owl Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Sorry fed up of the misery on here. Brentford game Saturday. How do we stop this lot? I think quick press and high balls into the box. Would be tempted to go same 11 as Charlton, Don't think they will like balls into the box for Fletch and Nuhiu. I would start Fessi too. Is anyone injured? suspended? Regardless of the boring legal stuff, looking forward to the game Saturday, Brentford always tends to be an open entertaining game. A win here and we can keep up with the top 6. I reckon another 3-1 win, Bannan will score! yes i know! 25 yard screamer is my call. Roll on 3pm Saturday! WAWAW 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Nothing about them scares me. Like any game at this level we could easily beat them and easily lose. I'm happy with how we've been playing and creating chances for weeks now. Its just taken us a lot of chances to score. Hopefully we can be more clinical! I believe in the boys! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westfield Owl Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) They're in good form at the moment and Brentford obviously had today an eye-catching result last weekend. But at the end of the day, they're only one point above us in the league and they also lost to a bang average Blackburn side last week. Every team in this league is nothing special. No reason at all why we shouldn't expect to a positive performance against Brentford on Saturday. Edited December 5, 2019 by Westfield Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspector Lestrade Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Watched the highlights against Luton, they destroyed them with slick passing running off the ball and finding space, all the basics brilliant to watch. Need to be in their faces and got give them time to play their natural game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither proving potent in terms of scoring goals this season. Flip a coin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Brentford are a very good team, will be a tough game. Beatable non the less. Considering Monk's comments acknowledging how they play out from the back, expect we may set up with a high press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAWAW Glad to hear some optimism, think fessie may be a doubt and i would put any money on bannan scoring a 25 yarder, impulse long range shots are not his best attributes and that a compliment, hope he can sneek on the scoresheet somehow though, he deserves a goal. Entertaining tight game coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I hope we see Fletcher-Nuhiu in a 442 again. It’s working. We score. Going against the majority, I would still put Iorfa at RB. Odubajo is a weakness. I would also put Bannan and Luongo in the middle, but I expect it will be Bannan-Hutch, who for me is sitting too deep again, leaving Bannan isolated. Reach or Murphy is a coin throw as someone said already. But Reach works harder. Harris is a shoe-in. Hope we see Dawson Iorfa Lees Borner Fox Reach Luongo Bannan Harris Nuhiu Fletcher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick_Turpin Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 More forwards the better - only to give us a better chance of creating the opportunites we create. I think Luongo is unlucky not to have played more. Murphy looked pretty sharp against Charlton but playing him might leave us too open. I'd go Dawson Odubajo Iorfa Lees Fox Murphy Luongo Bannan Harris Nuhiu Fletcher But Dawson Odubajo Iorfa Lees Fox Lee Luongo Bannan Murphy Fletcher Harris Wouldn't surprise or disappoint me because we are playing OK. It's about punishing teams when we are on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
