    Well played Brentford, going to get toxic at the London stadium.

    Already had protests before tonight's game

    Mad to think in a game of such dominance, their xG was 1 below ours on the weekend!

    TBF Jander's miss was probably worth 0.9999999 xG on it's own!

    My hat is off and flying through the air for Brentford.

    Really thought they would struggle (and they still might) but they have a good little set up.

    To replace goalscorers like Toney, Mbuemo and Wissa in recent seasons is pretty tough but looks like they have done it again.

    More evidence that XG is an absolute nonsense imo.

    At least KWP and Fernandes are on the bench. Since Nuno went there JWP has gone from a regular starter to never in the matchday squad. Nuno really, really doesn’t rate him.

    Just noticed this too. Seems like Nuno has something against players that have played for Saints <laugh>

    Why does the semi automated offside system always seem to be broken? That’s two televised games in a row where it hasn’t been working.

    Looking at the 6 yard line on the pitch, it was clear to me he was well offside. It's almost like the Premier league loves the time and drama that VAR provides.
