"Two little bees, flying into the flowers..." This was originally a joke for drinking and punching, but now it is an allusion to the two "bees" Watford and Brentford in the Premier League. Even though the former is no longer in the Premier League , there are still "little bees" Brentford who are crazy about collecting honey (to score points) in a league that is overwhelmed, and the targets they choose are all super strong teams.
"No one thought that this inconspicuous Bee team was only Champions League zone..." When Liverpool , who was eager to bottom out, came to the "Beehive", he was stung in the face by the ferocious little bee. Although many Red Army fans keep scolding Nunez, they are also applauding Brentford, because this "younger brother" who often takes the "elevator" and returns to avoid relegation, after careful training by head coach Thomas Frank, not only approached the European theater, but also completed a major pioneering feat in the Premier League.
▲ A small team born in a suburban orchard
stung the elite
with a 3-1 home victory over Liverpool. This season Brentford won against Manchester United , Manchester City , Liverpool, drew with Tottenham , Chelsea , and only lost to Arsenal against BIG6. What does it mean? This little bee actually became the fifth team in Premier League history to defeat Guardiola's Manchester City and Klopp's Liverpool in a single season! The last "weak team" to perform such a feat was Brighton in the 20/21 season. Now who dares to underestimate Brighton with McAllister?
▲Violent victory over Manchester United prompted Cristiano Ronaldo to be "laid off"
The beginning of everything was the 4-0 defeat of Manchester United by the Little Bees, which was a rare starting appearance for Cristiano Ronaldo this season. As a result, after this game, Ronaldo was criticized both online and offline. The Manchester United locker room fell into chaos. Eventually, Ronaldo was reduced to a substitute and left the team to go to Saudi Arabia to go gold hunting. Little Bee must be suspected of being the "initiator".
▲ "Teacher Tony" defeated Manchester City with a double blast
This small team was unknown for more than half a century and was born in the suburbs of London. It was nicknamed because the stadium used to be a beautiful orchard with cute little bees flying around. Joking aside, there may be more female fans of this team than male fans, but the team's style and playing style have never been "soft". They have been in low-level leagues all year round and are fiercely competitive on the court. The team has developed a tough style of play and an extremely tenacious style. With the arrival of coach Frank, who has a very rock style in appearance and style, the spikes on the little bee's body have become even more vicious.
▲Coach Frank has a rock and roll style
"Rock and Roll Football" disrupts the Premier League
Some die-hard fans of the Premier League have analyzed the "little bee phenomenon" this season and believe that coach Frank has played a decisive role. He is to the team just like Porter is to Brighton. Frank is only the second coach to lead Brentford in the Premier League. He came to the team as an assistant coach in 2016, worked his way to the head coach position step by step, and has a deep understanding of the team. In the "rock football" seeds he planted for the team, "fighting", "body" and "team" have become the basic requirements for players.
▲Played like a rugby match
In the games where they defeated or drew with the top players in the Premier League, the characteristics they displayed made English fans look very alien. Let's talk about this team. They can't play long passes, nor can they play delicate transmissions, but they have a whole set of methods to play against teams with good skills. Everyone gradually discovered that this team's mental willpower is extremely strong, the players' bodies are very strong, and the forward line's start-up speed is very troublesome for the luxurious defense line of strong teams.The most obvious one is Mbeumo, who is surrounded by players who are good at counterattacks. They like their opponents to rely on their strong equipment to attack at all costs, with a posture of "if you can't break my defense, you will suffer". Liverpool, who are eager for success and have Nunez sitting on the front line, is an example.
▲Will Nunez take the blame again this time?
In addition to Cameroon international Mbeumo's relative position is relatively fixed. Even Damsgao, who has recently transferred and is relatively well-known, cannot guarantee a main starter. Frank’s explanation for this is: You must always maintain momentum and hardness. I will tell the players that there is competition and change in all positions. As long as you are healthy, you will have a chance. This was reflected well in front of Liverpool, who are known for their hard-core style in the Premier League. They have fully adapted to the rhythm of the Premier League and even allowed their opponents to be led by them. If you score points like this, the little bee will eventually fly to the big stage.
