Thomas Frank has praised Ivan Toney’s mental toughness after Brentford drew 0-0 with Bournemouth. The Bees battled hard at the Vitality Stadium, dominating possession while keeping their first away clean sheet in over a year.
A solid start to the campaign has Brentford sitting 10th in the table after eight games. Former Newcastle United striker Toney has been central to their success - bagging five goals to earn a first England call-up.
However, the 26-year-old did not feature on international duty and returned to West London without a cap to his name. Similarly to Alexander Mitrovic last weekend, Toon supporters have long debated whether it was the right call to let Toney leave in 2018.
