'Anything is possible' for Brentford

When it came to adjusting to the departure of Ivan Toney, Brentford had the advantage last season of his ban giving them a chance to look at building a team without him.

While he was banned there were already rumours about him leaving and I think that period, even though they were not getting the results, gave them the chance to build and accept a team that did not have him in it.

They have started really well this season- particularly Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa - scoring a lot of goals, and a lot of early goals.

What I really like about Thomas Frank is he finds different initiatives to strengthen his team.

Even when they first came into the Premier League and they had a set-piece coach. That was new for everybody but now we are seeing so many of the top teams adopting this.

Through their early goals this season, he has probably identified that as an area where they can punish teams in a way they were not really doing last season. It is impressive and something they have clearly worked on.

Defensively, this is an area now he will likely want to improve. The fact they are scoring so many, they are almost getting away with conceding as many goals as they have been. While these high-scoring games are nice for the neutral, Frank will want to change that.

But he is a very good manager and good managers can work with any level of player.

They can get players to buy into what they want to do and that is something that he does. He is well respected at the club and when you have players on board, it is a cliche, but anything is possible.
