Well, injuries and illness can't be helped. Good luck all.

The system can, though. I hope we've chosen the right one.

I did have a free £25 bet on UNIBET but put it on a Man City and West Ham double

Jesus fcukin Christ. The squad doesn’t look quite as strong as we thought it would be when it’s depleted with injuries/Covid. Our first XI and bench is strong when all fit…let’s just hope we they all step up.

If I was a betting man, and I am, I would back Brentford, and I have.

WTF are we doing playing Young in midfield!? Bananas.

Sheesh that’s a horrible looking starting 11, can’t be helped I suppose, just hope we play a system that works I guess.

Young in midfield again? Madness.

Agreed.

Thirded! JPB would have been my choice

So the twitter rumours were pretty much correct again.

That midfield looks very worrying. Where is Young playing? Buendia in the middle isn't his strength at all. Amazed Nakamba is not in there with Chuck and Doug.

Why hasn't Hause replaced Mings? A natural left sided central defender ignored for right sided Axel? Maybe Hause wants out and who could blame him. Madness.

Young in midfield. We’re in a spot of bother.

Not sure why Hourihane is not in the starting line-up given the need for experience and cover. Massive boost for Brentford with Mings and McGinn both out.  Must be honest, will be happy with a draw today.

Not a bad lineup I’m thinking given injuries/illness. Good luck to the lads

It looks like Dean thinks they'll come for a point. I guess he'd know, but I'm not so sure.

Presume young out wide and Buendia 10.
