Brentford Manager Keith Andrews Faces Criticism After Derby Defeat Amid Premier League Struggles
Brentford, under manager Keith Andrews, have struggled to maintain leads and secure consistent results early in the 2025 Premier League season, with only four points from five games, their lowest tally in five years. The recent 3-1 derby defeat to Fulham was marked by poor game management and defensive lapses, including conceding two quick goals before halftime and an own goal early in the second half, which Andrews acknowledged as costly mistakes. Despite a promising start in the match and a strong mentality, Brentford's inability to adapt tactics—such as switching to a more attacking formation after falling behind—has drawn criticism from fans and analysts alike. Andrews highlighted the importance of basic defensive principles, especially during set pieces and throw-ins, which Brentford failed to execute effectively. The squad has also been underwhelming in terms of attacking quality and creativity, with key players like record signing Dango Ouattara not being utilized to their potential, further frustrating supporters. With challenging fixtures against Manchester United, Manchester City, and Liverpool looming, Brentford face a difficult period to improve results and regain confidence.
