1st half: 61 attacking 1/3 passes (joint most from a half this season, level with Brighton).
2nd half: just 22.

Bentancur (2), Gray (1), Palhinha (1), Odobert (2).

I'm not sure how we are going to progress under Frank based on our very limited in ball possession tactics, we had a lower pass accuracy and possession than Brentford.

The 11th Premier League game of the season that we have finished the game with less than 1xG.
From the previous 10 we have won just 1 of them (0.6 xG vs Leeds).
3 points today, but as we've already seen these performances are not sustainable to get results.
