It was in and around our box for way too long, no closing down from our defence with only Stach proactive in defence, everyone else just watched

And to think that Brentford are doing this with one of our castaways in Jaiden Anthony…

This probably should be 0-2 or 0-3

Second to everything, even when we win a tackle we don’t get the ball - need to get Wilson on and go 4-4-2

I don't think Brentford are top 6 so this is a little worrying. Think it's a tactical error from the outset though rather than a player thing

A bit of a reality check today. Two good results against Forest but they did finish below us last season and they've lost Anderson.
Brentford are a far better side.

It just feels like we haven't learned our lesson from 21/22 at all. Hand out long term contracts to players we should be upgrading on, neglect key positions such as midfield, creativity and up front.

It's not the players: it's the formation/tactics that are wrong. Putting different players in the same positions alters nothing. We are second best in every area meaning the area's have to be different...

Okafor's been out most lively player so far and Wilson's been poor so far.
