Frustrating. Played some decent stuff but let ourselves down with individual errors. Taking Anthony Gordon off yet again was a strange decision that significantly hurt our attacking threat. Bellingham our best player by a distance as usual.

Tuchel has absolutely nailed this game tactically for us and Man City defenders are single handedly ruining it with some genuine amateur stuff at the back.

KANEEEEEE Nice defending Cucurella 👏👏👏

GORDON 😍😍😍 What a move that is, absolutely brilliant from Kane and Bellingham.

Guehi’s an absolute bozo ffs Embarrassing

Bar Quansah over Trent at right back that’s a good side. Really like Lewis-Skelly in midfield, and think Trafford getting a go in goal is actually quite a good idea going forward - big fan of Pickford but he had a hit and miss World Cup and isn’t getting any younger.

I can’t believe what I’m reading on the TL. They CHEATED. I’m going to say that again so people get the message. They CHEATED. It’s the worst scandal by any club in Premier League history. The fact there are people trying to say “it’s nothing to do with what happened on the pitch” is beyond me. Some of those players should’ve never been allowed to join that club in the first place. They need to be handed the most severe punishment possible. It’s ridiculous.

Guilty on 114 out of 115 charges is truly absurd stuff. If that club is still playing Premier League football next season then the powers at be have absolutely 0 bottle. Relegation should be the minimum punishment.

He’s spot on. I love Palmer as a player, but you can’t bin off playing for your country for “load management” then expect to waltz into the team for major tournaments. These 4 games were a huge opportunity for both him and Mainoo to prove a point and yet both have binned it off.

Can we please stop letting Keane Lewis-Potter take free kicks now

That batting cameo from Gus Atkinson is somehow more embarrassing than when he hit a four with three to win from 36 balls when Root was 99 not out at the other end

I’ve somehow jinxed him into a hamstring injury. Class.

Jos Buttler’s had such a good summer with the bat. Great to see. Honestly thought he may have been finished at international level after the T20 World Cup he had but he’s come back so much stronger.

A piece from me around the academy in the aftermath of the Under 21s’ impressive win against Bromley in the Jersey Mike’s Trophy last night. ⚽️ Victory vs Bromley 1️⃣ Journey to Category One 📈 How the academy can boost Brentford’s project #BrentfordFC vavel.com/en/football/2026/0…

3 points and a clean sheet vs League One opposition is a fabulous result for the U21s tonight. Excellent winning goal from Ollie Shield, assisted by Gustavo Nunes who had a very positive game. Reggie Rose in goal MOTM, Luka Bentt and Kiefer Gorman both superb off the bench too!

WHAT A WAY TO START😁

WIN BY 89 RUNS! 🙌 Will Jacks finishes with List A career-best figures of 5/22 👏
