CB: Ben Mee

He scored his first goal for Thomas Frank’s side against Manchester United last weekend.

LB: Rico Henry

As expected, the ex-Walsall ace has started both games so far this term at left-back.

CM: Mathias Jensen

His impressive pressing earned him a goal against Erik ten Hag’s side last time out.

CM: Christian Norgaard

He is now in his fourth consecutive season with Brentford.

CM: Josh DaSilva

The left-footed midfielder has scored two goals in two games but Frank needs to decide whether to start him or the popular Vitaly Janelt.

RW: Bryan Mbeumo

ST: Ivan Toney

The striker remains a Brentford player and everyone associated will be hoping that remains the case when the window slams shut at the end of the month.

LW: Yoane Wissa

He has new signings Mikkel Damsgaard and Keane Lewis-Potter breathing down his neck now.
