That Benrahama is so greedy

Onomah looks a real talent.

It might be a cruel summer for him if it costs Brentford a place in the Premier League.

Almost as bad as Salah.

Fear for either of these in the Premier League. I’m sure there’s nerves given the magnitude of the game but the defending has been terrible at times. Surprising there haven’t been more opportunities.

Yep, either will struggle; the Norwich team just relegated was better than both.

It’s like watching under 16s at times - 100 mile an hour with none of the guile, technique nor decision making to go with the frenetic pace.

Any good streams knocking about for the playoff final?

Nice. It’s not what you say, it’s the way that you say it.

You really can’t tell. Everyone was saying Norwich were best equipped to stay up this season and Sheffield United we’re stonewall to go down.

Caligula? · « **Reply #1048 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:10:12 pm »

Brentford should have had a pen and Fulham could have had a player sent off all in the space of 10 seconds.

Think it's just nerves as Brentford are normally really good to watch.

Oh I agree these things are impossible to predict. My impression is of two teams inferior to that Norwich team, attempting to play a game that seems technically beyond them.

Ha I meant more in this game. A few times they have come forward and a pass as on to speed up a counter and he kept hold of it until Fulham regrouped

IgorBobbins · « **Reply #1052 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:20:29 pm »

Nick’s 81st minute winner prediction still alive. He knows his stuff, that lad.

smicer07 · « **Reply #1053 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:21:42 pm »

Are there actually any strikers on the pitch? This is abysmal.

elsewhere · « **Reply #1054 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:23:55 pm »

Knowing Brentford, they will probably concede a goal a few seconds before penalty shoot-out.

Caligula? · « **Reply #1055 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:25:28 pm »

This has truly been one the worst playoff finals in recent memory.

IgorBobbins · « **Reply #1056 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:25:28 pm »

Haha. Kebano applauding a non-existent crowd as he walked off the pitch has been the best thing about this match so far.

Have to say Knockheart has a very punchable face.

Robinred · « **Reply #1059 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:36:32 pm »

Mitrovic v Pontus Jansson should be watchable in extra time.

J_Kopite · « **Reply #1060 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:36:48 pm »

We have to watch at least 30 minutes more of this dross?

Andy82lfc · « **Reply #1061 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:36:58 pm »

Unfortunately all good things must come to an end. At least we have another 30 minutes of white knuckle, jaw dropping excitement to look forward to.

Lone Star Red · « **Reply #1062 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:37:29 pm »

Brentford's kits are class.

Technically no

Oskar · « **Reply #1064 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:37:49 pm »

Shame it just doesn't go straight to penalties, another half an hour of this is going to be painful viewing.

Iska · « **Reply #1065 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:38:54 pm »

The most lucrative game in world football.

thaddeus · « **Reply #1066 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:41:06 pm »

Kamara makes some great openings then... takes five touches too many. He must be so infuriating to play with.

elsewhere · « **Reply #1067 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:41:28 pm »

I'd like Brentford to win but their manager is annoying so I wouldn't mind him whining in the end either.

kloppagetime · « **Reply #1068 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:41:42 pm »

This is right up there with the worst football games I've ever seen I mean did anyone even have a meaningful shot on goal

Andy82lfc · « **Reply #1069 on:** August 4, 2020, 09:42:03 pm »

If we don’t get to see some pens after watching this shite I’m going to tut so loud even the neighbours will hear.

FA should keep the PL with 19 teams after this shite show.

They should think outside the box and use it as an opening to let Bury back into the pyramid.

Aurelio’d it. Keeper had a mare all round there.
