Pre-match comments Brentford vs MU

The highlight of the earliest match of round 6 of the Premier League between Brentford and MU is the return of Bryan Mbeumo, who was the number 1 star at Gtech Community last season. The transfer of Mbeumo last summer did not go smoothly, when MU accused Brentford of trying to prolong the time to sell the Cameroon striker at a higher price.

Mbeumo has been professional throughout his time waiting for a move to Manchester United. However, he is likely to be booed by Brentford fans in today's match. Mbeumo has been with Brentford for 6 years, since the beginning of the season. The Cameroonian striker helped Brentford gain promotion to the Premier League, and helped them stay in this tough league, even finishing in the top 10 twice.

Last season, Mbeumo became a big phenomenon in the Premier League with 20 goals. This was the important factor that brought him to MU, a rich team but played poorly and lacked strength on the two wings. Even though Mbeumo did not create any scandals and helped Brentford earn a large amount of money as expected (65 million pounds), but of course he no longer holds the affection of Brentford fans.

Mbeumo’s performance tonight is therefore very remarkable. Unlike his role as the number 1 star at Brentford, Mbeumo has had to “sacrific” more at MU and has encountered many difficulties with his new team. Up to this point, he has only scored 1 goal in 5 Premier League matches for the Red Devils. However, the connection between Mbeumo and Sesko, and other MU attacking players is improving.

Against Chelsea, Mbeumo fouled goalkeeper Sanchez and was sent off after Sesko made a wall. This connection is expected to develop over time, and Brentford could be the next victim. The London club have had a turbulent summer, losing head coach Thomas Frank, captain Norgaard and their brightest stars in attack, Mbeumo and Wissa.

Taking a risk with an inexperienced manager like Andrews has made Brentford’s situation worse. After 5 rounds, they have only won 4 points and are just above the relegation zone. With 10 goals conceded, Brentford has the 3rd worst defense in the league (only better than the bottom two, Wolves and West Ham).

With such poor form, Brentford is at risk of being "embarrassed" when welcoming Mbeumo back. Although MU has been inconsistent and has not achieved the desired results, they have very impressive attacking statistics. On a good day, the Red Devils can absolutely score many goals and win convincingly.
