The crowd need to step up here, far too quiet, the team needs a lift.

Sounds like CH needs to change the striker options...



...oh.

At the game, Knockers our best player by a mile. Hemed looked very lucky not to get straight red in stoppage time for elbow. Their number 9 has got in down our right channel three times, scored once (near post, Stockdale error), Stockers saved another with legs.

Bruno simply has to start tracking Hogan. He's about 5 yards in front of him all the time. Murray and Hemed, for all their strengths are not good together. Personally, I'd take one of them off bring on either Skalak and move in Murphy, or Manu. And that's something I never thought I'd be saying...

Shame we didn't sign a striker eh? Would have given Hemed someone to pass to and score.

At the game too.

Hemed's been poor. Norwood doesn't look up to it either. Everything has come through Knockaert. Shouldn't be losing but we haven't played well at all

I'm not convinced by these clever short corners - if they're going to do them they need to rehearse them better, i.e not just the first and second move, but the third and fourth too

Hemed usually only lasts 70minutes, so we may see 4-5-1 at some stage. Might not be a bad thing in this game.

Not sure how much Bruno to blame. He's ahead of the ball yes, but NO cover from Duffy at ALL.

CH has got it totally wrong with 442. Brentford running the CM as a result, with Bruno and Bong ripped apart at will. Hemed in particular is an isolated passenger. Their no.9 is causing chaos against our entire defence on his own. Unless we calm down, I foresee an ill tempered Murray or someone else getting a red.

CH must change it to 451 at HT, with Stephens or Sidwell brought on, replacing one of the strikers.
