What we’ve seemingly assembled this season is a squad of individually good players, but with zero mental strength or nous to play for 90 minutes and see out the difficult situations that win you games. Is that sort of thing accounted for in ‘The Model’?
Brentford also signed players from overseas. We can't do that. We have to battle it out with all the other lower League clubs in Britain for the same players...and then, when it fails, sign two lads from our direct rivals who they seemed to be not up to it.
