Brentford’s coach, Thomas Frank, called Liverpool “the best team in the world” after his team lost 2-0 to them on Saturday. The match was tense, with both teams locked in a scoreless draw until Darwin Nunez scored two late goals to secure the win for Liverpool.
After the game, Frank expressed his disappointment about his team’s missed chances but had high praise for Liverpool. “We played well against a great team,” he stated. “We defended strongly and managed to limit their chances.” However, he acknowledged that Brentford lacked the finishing touch. “We had some nice opportunities, but the final pass or touch didn’t come off. Their defenders played exceptionally well.”
Frank also highlighted Liverpool’s status as favorites for the Premier League title. Having faced top teams like Arsenal and Manchester City recently, he believes Liverpool stands out. “In my opinion, they are ahead of City and Arsenal. They’re a complete team,” he added. “Their dedication, work rate, and skill across the pitch make them a formidable opponent.”
Since Jurgen Klopp was replaced by Arne Slot this summer, Liverpool has shown impressive form, losing only once this season to Nottingham Forest. With this victory, they maintain their lead at the top of the Premier League. Meanwhile, Brentford sits in 11th place, seven points away from European competition spots.
