Our injury list right now....

7 of those players below are guaranteed starters in our eleven, the other 5 would make regular appearances either from the bench or would rotate in the starting line-up....January will not be a pretty month for us.

Mbeumo - 3 months

Toney - 3 weeks

Schade - 1 month minimum, probably longer

Wissa - 1 month, AFCON

Ghoddos - 1 month, Asian Cup

Onyeka - 1 month, AFCON

Jensen - Could just be the next game, could be longer...

Dasilva - Who knows, been out for ages...

Henry - Whole season

Hickey - 1 month minimum, probably longer

Ajer - Who knows, comes back and then gets injured again

Mee - 1 game suspension

Well at least he's not saying 'fuck brent ford' again, in a way.

He's just answered the question asked of him, really a non-issue. If it weren't for the ban he would not be at the club this season, in fact most fans thought he'd be gone in January anyway, the club are open to selling if we get the right bid, Toney is open to leaving if we accept the right bid and the fans know this is our model and it's what's given us success.

This has done the rounds on socials, Neal celebrated a goal recently by holding up a 2 and 1 sign with his hands, you can see him talk about it to the kids in the video. I hope we sign him permanently in the Summer, just gets the club. Plus he has 5 goals and 3 assists this season, would be great if he can break 10+.

Know nothing about him other than he’s Iceland’s first choice keeper at 19, so hopefully he’s decent

Josh Dasilva has suffered another long-term injury that will likely keep him out for the season. Massive setback for us but also for Josh, these injuries just keep coming for him.

Karma for that tackle on Hojbjerg

"Brentford have made more profit in 2 seasons than Man Utd have in 31."

I wonder which one of those clubs will spend £100m+ on squad improvements this summer and which one will continue to live within their means because if they did that they'd violate the *checks notes* profit and sustainability rules. 9_9

Haha it’s not really a surprise tbh, we rarely spend massively and we buy players with a focus for them to succeed over a 5 year period. When we beat Man City twice last season something like 11 of the players involved were with us when we got promoted, 12 of our current squad were with us in the Championship. Even one of our signings, Maupay, was with us then.

It sounds like it should be obvious, but player development and player pathways is a massive factor at the club and it means that because we buy well we don’t need to keep overhauling the squad. Mental really that clubs like Chelsea and United haven’t grasped that.

Yep. Yourselves & Brighton have good models to follow.

We had it for a small period of about 3/4 years, but then decided to shit that all up the wall and move away from it. Now hopefully we start to move back to that model that made us successful. 

Staggers me that bigger clubs don't grasp it, like you say. Or at least grasp it consistently and effectively.

With Brentford, if there current recruitment hits a ceiling, you'd trust them to adapt to a different model that works.

It's frustrating for the rest of us but clearly Bloom and Benham's skills were transferable and it's good that there boyhood clubs that were traditionally third/fourth tier are the ones benefitting from it during the time of "There's too much money to break through".
