I don't blame him personally - he's just not good enough for a modern full back. He's not good against pace as he's aged, and he certainly is not good enough going forward. He'd be fine against a side with really slow wingers if such a team exists. Him being our apparent first choice RB is an exposure that doesn’t serve him IMHO. He’d be a useful player to have as back up perhaps, but as a starting RB in the PL, he looks massively vulnerable and today it was exemplified on several occasions. Twice at 1-1 he inadvertently put them in on goal, says it all.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

Great result with a threadbare squad.

We’ll if that doesn’t ring any bells with the management team that we desperately need a striker then nothing ever will. And a RB!

Good performance, our defending restricted the Brentford strike force to one goal, and we could have nicked it. Defo respect the point.

Great result with a threadbare squad. There’s plenty to comment upon but I agree with this as the final word on it all. We were awful first half but second half looked ‘in control’ just lacked anything constituting a threat up front. You hope signings await but I’m not holding my breath. The sooner Olise and Franca start to feature the sooner we may actually look like a complete team and therefore perhaps capable of a 10th or better finish. Nonetheless, would’ve taken that beforehand. Andersen was imperious today. Ayew our best player after him. COYP

Very happy to get the point. I think we all know what we need. A right back and a striker. We have them injured but how good as they’ve never played for us yet. Yep , a blind man could see we need a right back and striker minimum . Unfortunately we will prob end up with a second choice goal keeper .

This season will be so much better with a proven goal scorer. Great point away but it's so clear how much we need a striker

Last ten minutes I was taking the point. Before that I was half hoping for another lucky goal. And also, I doubt City are after Eze.
