Thomas Frank will be undergoing preparations ahead of Brentford's return to pre-season training later this month, ahead of what is set to be a gruelling second season for the Bees.
Frank will be hoping Brentford don't become victims of "second season syndrome" and there will need to be plenty of transfer activity in both directions to ensure the Bees can survive for a second successive season.
A huge positive ahead of 2022/23 in particular, is that 13 of Brentford's 19 away trips are within London, the Midlands and the South Coast, which indicates tiredness really should not be an issue for Frank's side.
