As per usual, wait until we fall behind before Farke tries to do anything about it.

Inevitable.

Dross performance from us.

Bees should be 2 or 3 up easily.

Farke needs to put the lottery on if it's only 0-1 at HT 😂

It’s like we are playing with 10 men, all feels very last ditch with a hopeless ball forward the only tactic we have - early season optimism evaporating

Brentford have our pants down.

Best performance by an away side in a long long time

Heck of a finish.
Brentford looking like a top 6 side atm.
The improvement in them since our dour battles last season is eye opening to say the least.

It's fortunate we've brought in those much needed attacking options.

Still, it's got an ugly Leeds win written all over it!

TBF, way too early to make changes though I've no clue how Aaronson starts with Okafor in a 5 man defence

Brentford seem like they have got about 14 players on the pitch

Even when we get it forward it never sticks

DCL and Aaronson getting bullied

Only Okafor has looked vaguely threatening but iffy passing
