Frank discussed the requirements for Brentford to play in Europe next season, which would be a historic achievement for the club. He emphasized the importance of finishing as high as possible in the remaining five games of the season. Brentford's goal is to finish in the top 10 for the second time in the Premier League, which would be a remarkable achievement. They also aim to improve upon their best season in the Premier League by finishing eighth, which would be a fantastic outcome.
However, Frank acknowledged that qualifying for Europe will be challenging due to the tight competition at the top of the table. Just one point separates 10th and 8th place, and three teams are currently ahead of Brentford. Frank expressed confidence that Brentford can achieve their goals with a perfect run-in, but admitted that it will be difficult.
Brentford faces a tough challenge against Nottingham Forest, who have performed well this season. Frank praised Nottingham Forest's style of play, which is difficult to counter and has proven to be effective. He also acknowledged that Nottingham Forest's qualification for the Champions League would be a great achievement for them.
Frank provided an update on Brentford's team, announcing the return of Aaron Hickey and Igor Thiago to full training. While they won't be ready for the match against Nottingham Forest, their inclusion is a positive sign for the team.
