    Billy “The Bee” Grant is outside Old Trafford speaking to Bees fans straight after the final whistle, as Brentford paid the price for missed chances in a game that could easily have swung the other way.

    Schade In Focus, Mbeumo On Fire & Europe’s Hidden Cost | Beyond The Breakdown - Brentford Stats And Tactics

    Beyond the Breakdown is back with Jacob ‘The Gowler’ Gowler and Matt ‘The Allard’ Allard getting properly stuck into the detail after a busy run of games. First up, a forensic look back at the Everton and Fulham matches – from Everton’s super narrow shape trying to shut the Bees down, to Fulham’s in-game tweaks that shifted the momentum. The lads dig into the numbers behind Brentford’s finishing too – what’s going right, what’s not, and whether the data backs up what we’re seeing with our eyes There’s also a proper stat attack on those late goals – just how often are the Bees conceding after 90 minutes, and is it a trend or just bad luck? Kevin Schade goes under the microscope as well. The Gowler pulls out the key metrics, while the pair chat tactics, roles, and what tweaks could get him more involved and more effective in this Brentford setup Then it’s onto the bigger picture – European football. What actually happens to Premier League teams when they qualify? The research, the impact on league form, and how UEFA’s stricter profitability and sustainability rules could shape decision-making And the big question – is a season WITHOUT Europe actually better for the Bees? Finally, a look ahead to the next three fixtures. Manchester United and a focus on Bryan Mbeumo’s season so far, West Ham and how Nuno’s tactical approach might be exposed, and Manchester City – where, if anywhere, are the chinks in the armour? Stats, tactics, and proper football chat – this is Beyond the Breakdown The research the chaps referred to on the podcast with regards Europe can be found here - https://www.researchgate.net/publication/329901699_Playing_in_the_UEFA_Europa_League_Does_Not_Adversely_Affect_English_Premier_League_or_La_Liga_Performance https://thedirectorsinbox.substack.com/p/why-premier-league-teams-will-be The tweet Kieran Maguire referred to from the Swiss Ramble can be found here https://x.com/SwissRamble/status/2044685949074841742?s=20 Hosted on Acast.

    Bees Denied By Leno Late-On | Brentford 0 Fulham 0 - Post-Match Podcast From The Stands

    Billy TheBee Grant is in the stands and pubs chatting to Bees fans straight after a frustrating but hard-fought West London derby that ended goalless Brentford will feel they should have nicked it - creating the better chances, especially late on, but denied by a stunning stoppage-time save from Fulham keeper Bernd Leno  The Bees had the only real threat on goal across the 90, with Fulham failing to register a shot on target, but just couldn’t find that finishing touch. Fans give their take on a game that had intensity and needle but lacked quality in the final third, with talk turning to missed opportunities, another draw on the board, and what this means for Brentford’s European push as the season heads into the final stretch . Was it a point gained or two dropped? The fans have their say. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
