  1. Nice to see a Brentford thread. I have almost finished the first season with them and have already secured promotion, most likely in 2nd place behind Fulham who are 4 points ahead of me with two games to play.

    Played an adapted Gegenpress in a 4-3-3, fairly similar to @Fubz but with a AP-A and BBM-S in the CM slots.

    Only signings were Brewster on loan from Liverpool, he scored 23 league goals and started pretty much every game until getting injured and missing the last 6 games of the season. Will try and get him on loan again in the Prem (I did an initial enquiry and Liverpool wanted £115m for him!!!!) and look to get another striker to support him on a permanent deal. Also signed Maximillan Wittek from Greuther Fürth for £1.8m and was a good rotation option with Henry at LB. Boosted the squad in Jan with Herbie Kane, again on loan from Liverpool, to rotate with Dasilva as my BBM as he was inconsistent. Had £2m future fee agreed, which I had to activate in March as MLS teams were sniffing round him to sign him when his contract expired at the end of the season. 

    Watkins, Benrhama and Canos were all inconsistent. Watkins had a good run towards the end of the season, Canos was probably the most effective overall. The wide areas are where I need to strengthen next season as a priority. Will probably sell Valencia as he couldn't hold down a place in the team as I don't play with an AMC and he didn't impress in the wide positions or as an AP in the CM slot. 

    Looking forward to seeing what the summer window brings.
