I had lots of chats with people about, like, who's the teams who aren't coming up who are going to be in the danger zone?

Everybody was like wolves.

And then Brentford was... I was another one.

I'm happy to go on record and say as well, I thought Brentford were going to be in knee-deep in trouble, but they've been brilliant.

Yeah.

It's a tale as old as time, though.

They lose players, they bring other players in to replace them, and they also extract a bit more from, you know, certain players already at the club as well.

I mean, the amount of goals... It was losing the manager this time, wasn't it?

They lost Frank, so people thought, oh, that's kind of like a brick too far.

I think they've got a better goalkeeper.

I was going to say, I think they got a better goalkeeper and they got a better centre forward than Wisser in Iguatiago as well, which is clearly being seen.

And this is what they do.

They replace really well.

They can lose whoever it is.

They can lose another two or three this summer.

I'm not too sure who would go, but they can lose another two or three and you'd probably back them to be good again and to bring in some random player

from Belgium or Germany, who will just turn into an absolute star.

And that's just what Brentford do.

And look, Europe's still on as well.

And especially with the Villa situation as well.
