Five? Three? Four? Despite looking stronger at the back this season, the Bees are clearly struggling to gel or get rediscover the brand of consistent winning football we were hoping for again this season.
The combination of new signings bedding down in key positions is a big factor, but on tonight’s Beesotted radio show, we ask whether the current formation is part of the problem, or key to longer term success? In the studio tonight were Robin Hood, xG Dave, Gary GP Paul, with Brentford journalist Jim
Levack joining us on the phone.

Think that it is obvious that we are safer at centre half this season but weaker in midfield. Also doesn’t help playing any system without a proper centre forward (although this could not be helped) .I think that we do need to find the best system with the players we now have .
