Brentford player ratings - 'Out of his depth' 4/10 but 'superb' 9 in Man City defeat

Brentford couldn't hold on to an early lead as Manchester City took all three points in West London on Monday night.

It's just one win in 10 now for Brentford after falling to defeat against Champions Manchester City at the Gtech Community Stadium on Monday night.

Thomas Frank's side found themselves in front after just 21 minutes when Neal Maupay stole through and pounced on a long Mark Flekken goal-kick. The Bees goalkeeper then kept out an onslaught of shots from the visitors and Brentford looked to be going into half-time in the lead until Phil Foden pounced on a weak Ethan Pinnock header.

The England international found the back of the net twice more before full-time as Manchester City proved their class. Here's how the Brentford players got on.

5. Sergio Reguilon - 7

Turned defence into attack well with his runs. Good delivery from set plays and nearly saw one cross float into the bottom corner. Confident defensively too, though occasionally caught out of position after attacks. | AFP via Getty Images

6. Mads Roerslev - 6

Got forwards well when he could but was more conservative than usual given the opposition. Blasted a chance over the bar in the second half. | AFP via Getty Images Photo: Getty Images

7. Mathias Jensen - 7

Was a physical presence in midfield early on and provided some good deliveries from set plays. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images

8. Christian Norgaard - 7

Pretty huge shift from the midfielder. Won the ball well and sprayed some nice passes but fluffed a decent chance in the box around the 60th minute. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
