Final Score Brentford 3 (KLP, Janelt, Kayode) Tottenham Hotspur 0

[brooks]

Excellent. £250 million doesn't get you much nowadays

 

[Hampshire Bee 2018]

I think that’s up there with our best 90 minutes in the premier league.

 

[Superbeesensi]

Fantastic football, hard work, application and desire all over the pitch…

 

[VitaminBee]

How spoiled are we?!?

My main take away from today. Such a big grin on my face right now. So excited for this season.

 

[davebee]

Slightly disappointed with 3-0. But bloody hell we looked good.

 

[sussexb]

Good summary from Jamie Redknapp

 

[Ricky Clucks]

Well played, guys.

I knew it was going to be a tough opener for us, but you lot were even better than I thought.

A well deserved win.

Dear BBC,
Please do the right thing. Thomas Frank making his MOTD debut as the pundit for Bees 3 Spuds 0.
Thank you.

 

[jonny c]

As comfortable a win as we will see in the Prem all season. Superb performances all round, Sangare already underlining why we spent so much on him.

How about the luxury of having Damsgaard, Wilson, Yarmo, Hickey and Anthony to come off the bench?!

Spurs were garbage, we were great, it promises to be some season...

 

[stevendamico]

Sangare for me. His touch map was ridiculous and he also had two assists.

1 assist officially, right? but point taken.

 

[davebee]

1 assist officially, right? but point taken.

Pull back for KLP, rebound off the keeper. Official stats might say one, but effectively two!!

 

[UNCCTF]

We were outstanding, but my god, Spurs were absolute cheeks. That was appalling from them. Bring on B’ham.

 

[Deanb]

We’re top of the league ..we top of the league..

 

[davebee]

Interviewer "What was your approach going this game?"
NC "We wanted to f*** them up!"

 

[Ivan_Balakhonov]

Even in my wildest dreams I couldn't see us being that dominant against allegedly much improved Spurs. We didn't give them anything today being in control from the first minute of the match. And with the deep bench that we have now everything looks very promising.

 

[ziggys_human]

Total football...with spurs lucky to only get nil

 

[beeeehive]

KLP, Schade and Sangare of course were incredible

 

[Mbee]

Don’t shoot me down, but shout out to the Ref, most consistent no Bullsh!t refereeing I have seen for years in the PL. Refreshing to see such a flowing game.

 

[Windmill Rd Bee]

Honestly that KLP goal might be our most aesthetically beautiful PL goal ever. Didn’t even shout “YEEEES”, just kept saying “are you serious?”

 

[A Real Mysteron]

It’s Peter Drury and Lee Dixon, not actual Americans

Exactly

 

[shaun]

Men against boys.

 

[aawharris]

Imagine starting Richarlison ,subbing him for Solanke and ever expecting to score

 

[Sianist]

Honestly that KLP goal might be our most aesthetically beautiful PL goal ever. Didn’t even shout “YEEEES”, just kept saying “are you serious?”

Certainly up there

 

[mhead bee]

Almost perfect, one post away from, well, oh I am being greedy.

With so many w***ers on the pitch too.

If I was de zerbi, training on Monday would be, stand in a line and don’t fall over for 90 mins, because it was pathetic and Oliver wasn’t having any of it second half

 

[KD]

“A club with soul, ethos, no passengers, everyone doing their job, no luxury players, fighting for each other, playing as if it is the last game we will ever play, a club that understands the importance of culture.”

Repeated commentary from the Sky pundits and commentators and they’re not wrong.

 

[JosephBFC]

Don’t shoot me down, but shout out to the Ref, most consistent no Bullsh!t refereeing I have seen for years in the PL. Refreshing to see such a flowing game.

100%. Oliver was excellent, and almost always is

 

[A Real Mysteron]

How was it not 8-0 at least?

 

[Sianist]

Just me or did Thiago, even if you disregard his penalty miss, have a fairly anonymous day in the office?

 

[VitaminBee]

How was it not 8-0 at least?

Indeed. Are we sure this wasn't actually a 3rd pre-season game? Similar level of opponent.

 

[VitaminBee]

Just me or did Thiago, even if you disregard his penalty miss, have a fairly anonymous day in the office?

Was more involved second half with a lovely switch ball and some moments of Brazilian flair, but agree that he wasn't his usual dominant self. Luckily there's 37 more games for that!

You sound like the NOW tv commentators scanning the stands for 90 mins

 

[zuko]

Unbelievably, only our third home win of the year! Squad depth is starting to look ridiculously strong.

 

[hanworthbee]

When I saw their line up I thought we'll win this no problem. Would have been lovely to see the 4th but save one for next week

Spurs are an awful club just think they can solve all their issues with a cheque book !

Missed Jon Bon Jovi

 

[bexleybee]

Fair play to the Spurs new recruits, slipping in seamlessly to continue where they left off last season

 

[HerefordB]

I'm of the opinion that performance was indeed one of the most emphatic since we joined the PL. Redknap's analysing the game mentioned total football. Hes not wrong!

 

[stevil]

Joint top of the league. To be fair to Arsenal, they had the tougher opening fixture…

 

[ianbee]

Just a fantastic performance from the whole team. Just in awe watching them play the way they did. Playing golf with a couple of Spurs fans tomorrow. Should be fun.

 

[Gazza Bee]

Superb performance and sets a very high bar now. Never particularly troubled at the back and some free flowing incisive football going forward - can see us causing even the best sides trouble this season if we set up that way.

Sangare, what a player - reckon he'll be the signing of the summer when they look back at the end of the season.

 

[She Wore She Wore]

Don’t shoot me down, but shout out to the Ref, most consistent no Bullsh!t refereeing I have seen for years in the PL. Refreshing to see such a flowing game.

He let two fifty fifty decision go for both sides in quick succession which only added to the overall enjoyment of the game.

 

[Yiggy]

What a feeling. Amazing performance and a fab debut from yer man.

Only slight squibs were the missed pen and none of our strikers scoring.

I predict 2nd on MOTD. (Fair enough)

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

We were outstanding, but my god, Spurs were absolute cheeks. That was appalling from them. Bring on B’ham.

Yes, but it was also appalling from Rennes and Frankfurt. Can you see a pattern emerging?

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

Why only 3-0? Disappointing! We should have had five and I’ve no idea how they scraped nil.

 

[Houghton Bee]

One of those days that will live long in the memory. A top top performance, on the pitch and in the stands. We absolutely schooled a bunch of dicks who spent £250m or so in one transfer window, with probably more to be spunked. I'd take Sangare over literally every player they've signed in the last 5 windows, absolutely world class.

We had so so so much quality all over, Kelleher deserves credit for some class saves, Collins and Ajer made great blocks, KLP made himself undroppable ( and I'd suck Rico off daily tbh), Kayode is still the best RB in the world, Schade's determination was exceptional.

One of my favourite homers ever.

 

[Cham]

Scarily good today.. football was mindblowing. Spurs have spent 300 mil and looked worse than they did last time they came down to the Gtech. Sangare will be a 100 mil plus player soon. Janelt aging like fine wine. KLP finally showing his all round talent. Bench looks very strong and still got JDS, Fabio & Milambo to come into the squad.. very auspicious start to the season

 

[BmthBee]

What is there to say that hasn't already been said.
That was one excellent performance from one and all, Spurs never had a look in and it could have been a lot more than 3, Sangare looks a bit special and KLP just gets better and better.

 

[cromerbee]

Probably the most complete performance I can remember! Looked totally in control . When we lost it a little after the missed pen, the subs just changed it back in our favour again. So impressive! If that pen had gone in, we’d have had 6.
One question. Thought the flags looked great and helped a really good atmosphere. Why weren’t they collected / asked to be left on seats so could be used next time? People taking them home- they won’t bring them back again.
Great day!!!

 

[RAF_Patto]

I think today shows what a settled squad can give you. Every single player knew where their support was, without looking, just instinct.

 

[sheffbee]

We played so well against Frankfurt but I was a little worried that maybe F. wern't all that good . Today we just carried on from that. Pressed them to death played confident solid football. This could be an outstanding season for Brentford.
