It was all about the numbers at Griffin Park on Saturday: two goals from our number nine meant three points which stretched our winning run to five at home and moved us into the Sky Bet Championship's top two. After the match, supporters were quick to take to social media to praise the team's performance.
Thoroughly professional from @BrentfordFC today. @JMcEachran20 put on a show - best player on the pitch by a country mile!
