DT The Optimist Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 Thoughts on him so far after two games. I ask as a friend of mine (a keen committed life long Brentford fan) told me before it became public that we were after him and he implored us to buy him ! He claimed that he cost the Bees 15 points last season. As always I take stuff like that with a pinch of salt but listening to radio Brizzle today seems there were two moments in second half when he made two howlers in succession that almost dropped us in it and Gary Owers was wondering what he was doing ? I also note he made a few very decent stops. My take on it is that we have a really decent keeper, but prone to the odd 'howler' From those there today what are your thoughts please ?

BCFC Rich Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 Think he was a bit to casual on the ball a couple of times but not to concerned yet. Also made two very good saves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midlands Red Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 Couple of moments where he made the wrong decision, think we have to accept that he is being asked to play a specific way and will probably see a few more such instances this season. Hopefully doesn't cost us too much and his obvious strength in terms of distribution outweigh any negatives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviestevieneville Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 He’s a keeper who plays out from the back so will make the odd mistake. Made two excellent saves and caught everything . He must be working on his commanding of the box because what I saw of him he punched everything at Brentford. Still very young for a keeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe jordans teeth Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 Made some horrendous decisions in the two games so far that haven’t cost us but has pulled off some smart saves as well,good number 2 to have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roe Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 I like him. Nice and positive, good reflexes, pretty good kicking overall too. You guys are perfectionists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Distribution....apart from one awful pass out for a corner....not sure what else you can expect? Can’t see anything that would warrant criticism today. 6 minutes ago, joe jordans teeth said: Made some horrendous decisions in the two games so far that haven’t cost us but has pulled off some smart saves as well,good number 2 to have What horrendous decision did he make today?

Red Exile Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 I'm impressed. A couple of heart stopping moments but I think we have to remember that he's still establishing an understanding with the CBs and is clearly being asked to play the ball out. He can throw the ball miles and his distribution is pretty good. Made at least one cracking save. I'd expect him to have the jersey for a while yet.

Guest Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 That tip that nearly went in was so weird. He's done that before with Brentford. Simple tip over that he tips and drops into the net.

I felt Max proved himself well capable last season to be our No2,,was very steady, even outstanding on occasion(Villa away in particular)... Bentley a pointless signing from the outset & money wasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope people give him a fair chance because it isn't his fault NM is popular, I love NM as much as the next City fan but Bentley is in for now and to me looks fine.

Similar to your views on Weimann! Not really. Just thought he made a meal of that save. Weimann not that great most of last season. But when he was at the start i was saying he is outstanding. So didn't have a problem when he played well. Just didn't play well enough for me. Bentley awful last season according to every Brentford fan comment or anyone that knows a Brentford fan. So of course I'm concerned he isn't good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColeCiderRed Posted August 10, 2019 Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 Made some decent saves, the ones he is expected to save he makes look awkward. Early days and I'm certainly not writing him off. Just feel we are in better hands with Nikki between the sticks. That and it's better for my heart.
