@owlstalk Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Just now, Ronnie Starling said: Just think if we had a set of scouts that could source a better midfield than what we have. They are out there. Just look up the road at Barnsley. Punching well above their weight while our overpaid lazy shysters go through the motions. It's never a players fault if he's overpaid Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Hunt Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Bannan our only player that the Brentford commentators praised , same every week, but to our bozos it’s his fault that the rest of the team is crap You could put Beckham or Gaza in this team and they would have no impact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Two in the middle never works, no matter which two we play. We need three central midfielders playing to try and get hold of the game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshOwl Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 As soon as I saw the team tonight I sighed. Thompson you’ve been at the club since these two joined, how the F do you not know it doesn’t work by now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 4 assists! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown is clearly unfit. These two weren't our problem tonight. Reach, Harris, Penny, Kachunga were the problem in the middle if the park. None of the players you mention play in the middle of the park. But I do agree that tonight like last few games that’s where the game was won/lost. Our central midfield is horrific. I’d swap it with any other championship team. Im at a stage where I’d rather watch Dele/Shaw who earn fractions and I’m sure less talented play there as they at least appear to be able to do a little of everything rather than just really good at one thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve1212 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Bannan will be taking the goal kicks soon just so he can pass it to the goalie. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 I love some folk on this site Spend all season slagging Bannan off Then when they realise it doens't work they lump 'hutch' into it to try a bit harder 2 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry. Meant midfielders. We were 3-5-1-1 and Penny, Harris and Reach offered nothing tonight for the central midfielders. Kachunga was effectively in midfield and again contributed nothing. Hutchinson was solid and Bannan was the only one trying to create anything...even though neither had their best games. I do like Shaw, so would rather see him in there than reach centrally. Dele isn’t a starter for me yet but has something about him for the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 (edited) This is not the problem. The issue is our lack of quality in attacking areas whether it’s striking options, out wide or attacking midfield. Whilst many were spuffing their load over signing Paterson, kachunga and windass, I was predicting league one before a ball was kicked.

If you’re playing a deep lying playmaker that doesn’t pass forward you may as well play someone else. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s also a myth that he plays better in a better team. This is just how good he is, creating or contributing a goal every 9 games just like in 2017 surrounded by stars. At least back then he wasn’t sapping 25k a week from us and we had others creating and doing his work alongside him. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shhhh he has more successful passes than anyone else In the team, ignoring the fact 95% of them are passing backwards to the goalkeeper 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s started bypassing CB’s and passing back to keeper. 5 times I counted that Saturday and 3 times tonight. That’s what having a creative genius in your team can do. Pick ball up on half way, spin around. Kick it back to your keeper! Captain combover at his finest. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
