Beesotted contributor Jacob ‘The Gowler’ Gowler (@BeesBreakdown) gives us the tactical and statistical lowdown of Brentford’s draw against Everton.**
Keith Andrews sent out a strong starting XI, but lacked options off the bench. The Bees came out in a 4-2-3-1 with Kayode, van den Berg, Collins, and Lewis-Potter at the back. Yarmoliuk and Jensen formed a double pivot with Damsgaard at the 10. Ouattara and Schade the wingers supporting Thiago leading the line.
David Moyes matched up in a 4-2-3-1 with Mykolenko, Branthwaite, Tarkowski, and O’Brien making up the back 4. Gueye and Garner the defensive midfielders with Dewsbury-Hall in an advanced role. Ndiaye and McNeil looking to isolate fullbacks on the wing, while Beto waits for service up top.
