Brennan Johnson

Brentford are historically a small club who are currently punching above their weight.

Who in their right minds would leave the famous red hot atmosphere of the world famous City Ground for a small flat pack library like the Gtech Community Stadium with a capacity of 17,000?

Villa and Newcastle is a different matter and I wouldn't rule out Tottenham either. I can understand BJ if he moves to one of those 3 clubs and if we can pocket 40-50M then it would be good business all round in my opinion.

I don't know if it's fair to say that we looked a better team towards the end of last season when BJ wasn't in it?

Totally agree with you on this Sniff

This is what I keep saying above, right now is he even in our starting XI, no if we keep the same formation as last year. Plus if you pick him you have to sacrifice someone and their development, either one of the midfield three of Danilo, Yates and Mangala or Neco (if we switch back to 4 defenders and have to pick Aurier instead).

This is coming from one of Brennan's biggest fans but I don't think it would be a bad thing if we sold him in this window. I think he'll end up staying though as I just don't see anyone going mad and offering us Gordon (+) value. We would need Villa, Spurs or West Ham (post Rice sale) to come in who have the funds. Maybe Spurs if they sell Kane and have loads to spend?

Obviously, I'd also be happy if we kept him and Steve foudn a way to integrate him into our first team in a way that got our best players on the field and allowed us to get positive results. Who wouldn't want that!?
