Brentford boss Frank seeks fans help for Man Utd clash

Brentford may need a little of last season's magic as they take on Manchester United this weekend.

The Bees enjoyed an outstanding game against the Red Devils at home last season, winning 4-0 in one of Erik ten Hag's first games in charge.

However, United have improved since then and Brentford are in a relegation battle.

“It's very important that we stick together and we keep pushing together," head coach Thomas Frank said of the Bees' upcoming games.

“We can only do it together with the fans. The fans are crucial. The fans were very good at Burnley in a very tricky, tough situation where we had to fight and be together, and I really appreciated their support throughout the game. We could really hear them and feel them.

“It's so, so important we do it together – especially when it's not going the right way. I promise you the players will fight and they will run. It's in the quiet moments, or the tricky, tough, sticky situations, where we need them the most."
