We’re certainly missing Dougie. Ramsey and Diaby need to step up here. Plenty of possession, plenty of entries into the final third.. just need to turn the key.

I can only think it's instructions that none of Cash,Diaby or Moreno go to the by-line for a whipped in cross.It would help I think

We’ve come back from trailing to get points in games this season. No reason why we can’t again.

Well, that was poor.

Really?!? We were much the better team, look at the stats.  One bit of misfortune at the end of the half and they have an undeserved lead

Don’t know how we’re losing this. Moreno very poor though - could have had 3 and then fails to clear from a corner. Ramsey also very rusty.

It's a poor Brentford side as well

Yet they look fitter, faster and more coherent than we do.

Sort it out, Unai!

Cash and Diaby on the right just isn't working.
Cash doesn't  seem to have any confidence whatsoever. Keeps on getting the ball in a stationary position and comes inside all the while.

We really are missing Dougie. Nobody seems able to play an incisive vertical pass.

Thomas Frank tactic was always going to low block us to death and play quick through balls for Wissa to run onto and get shots away. Then score from a set piece if possible.

Worked to perfection this half.

Second half we're really going to have to gamble a bit, I'd get Bailey on and also Duran just to give their physical CBs something to think about.

This is real opportunity missed if we lose this, worse defeat than at Forest imo as we're not being ruthless and letting Spurs and Newcastle get close to us again.
