Yet another B teamer moving into the league, so can be considered a success. Was never in danger of troubling the first team though, though he got on about six benches.

How much did we pay to part him from Swansea City?

Good luck to him.

Fair play to the kid, Thought NYC (I know had many injuries) should've left instead of just stagnating on loans.

I liked him, wished he could have come through here but the bar has been dramatically raised...

Really tricky to work out whether he’d have been better off staying with Swansea and whether that would have given him a taste of football at a higher level than where he has ended up.

Given we paid a reasonable fee (noting comment from Swansea website above) I’m not sure this one has worked well for either Brentford or the player, but impossible to prove the counter factual.

Makes his debut off the bench as Grimsby trail by 2 goals in the league cup

Puts Grimsby 1-0 up at home to Crawley.

Odd that, like Tony Yogane, he mentions that his early foray into senior football, away from Brentford, has seen him work on losing weight and general fitness. I guess it could just be that no matter how hard Brentford run the B team players, their fitness will never be that of blood and thunder "die to get three points on a Saturday" league players.

Assume that’s written before yesterday or has he forgotten he scored? 😂

Personally i think thats a bit odd as i doubt our conditioning of players is an issue weight wise even at B team level.

At the risk of answering my own question ................why did we sell him ?

He made an immediate impact in West London, finishing as one of Brentford B’s leading scorers during his first season before enjoying a remarkable 2024/25 campaign, scoring 25 goals in 42 appearances as the Bees lifted the Professional Development Leag
