    Brentford ran Liverpool oh so close in Saturday afternoon’s eventual 0-2 reverse. Sadly, there are no points awarded for plucky effort although the performance in this one (and the visit from City in the previous fixture) will have confidence sky high heading in to the game at Crystal Palace on Saturday.

    For a moment it was Euro ’96 once more. On such fine margins games turn

    Who were the main men for Brentford? Who made the top five? Did Liverpool ride their luck or were the Champions elect always going to take the win? What did the subs tell us about the game with Crystal Palace?

    As ever, we look to all the talking points in the post match debrief and player ratings article which is now online, here.

    Enjoy and then here’s to the weekend. On this form it can’t come fast enough …
