After making three cameo appearances for Brentford in the Premier League against Arsenal, Brighton & Hove Albion, and Aston Villa last season, the South Korean centre-back and the club decided it would be in his best interest to drop down a level or two to gain experience and playing time. And he feels he hasn’t j

By Alessandro Schiavone While Arsenal look increasingly likely to cement their serial bottlers status once more on current form following their 2-1 defeat at Man City yesterday, their hated rivals from down the road Tottenham Hotspur are flirting with a shock relegation, and two-time European kings Chelsea could miss out on the Champions League once again, with fifth-placed Liverpool now holding a SEVEN-point lead.

Capital Football have exclusively spoken to Brentford defender Sepp Van den Berg. Here is what he said. One point. It could have been three. It probably feels like zero. "No, let's be honest one point is better than zero. But I know what you mean. I think in the second-half we played very well and I think we should have scored the 3-1. But of course if you concede a late goal like this it feels very bad. It feels disappointing and we all are. If we win this game against Evert

By Football Reporter Brentford 2-2 Everton Goals: Igor Thiago 3', 76' & Beto 26', Dewsbury-Hall 90+1 Brentford saw their hopes of Champions League football dashed following a 2-2 home draw with Everton on Saturday. Chelsea flop Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall made probably his biggest ‘contribution’ to his ex-side by denying their Champions League rivals from west London all three points. All while boosting the Toffees’ own chances of a top-five finish. With a win, the Bees could have

By Alessandro Schiavone Igor Thiago's dream to be called up for Brazil's World Cup squad has just become a bit harder to realize. And not only because the uncapped Samba star drew two consecutive blanks against the likes of Chelsea and Nottingham Forest.

But Endrick might have just stolen a march on the Brentford striker a

Exclusive by Football Reporter at Gtech Community Stadium Granit Xhaka was far from impressed with Sunderland's showing in their 3-0 trashing by Brentford. More than the defeat itself it was the manner of their slow degradation and overall attitude that irked the legendary Swiss. At 1-0 down following Igor Thiago's opener, French magician Enzo Le Fée missed a crucial penalty that could have killed Brentford's momentum and sowed the seeds for the Black Cats' turnaround. But c

By Alessandro Schiavone at Stade de Luxembourg Luxembourg 0-2 Germany Goals: Woltemade 49', 69' (G) Less than a week after scoring in Brentford's 3-1 win over Nick Woltemade's Newcastle United, Kevin Schade was lucky to have him as the Magpies behemoth netted a double to save Germany's blushes in a 2-0 win over Group A basement side Luxembourg. It was an unconvincing victory with the Germans making hard work of it all in the first-half when the Brentford winger was still on t
