Still needs time Nunes (back) will not be an option for Saturday's match against Everton as the match comes "a little bit too early," according to manager Thomas Frank.

Impact Nunes will need around another week before he is fit for a return, with the attacker being sidelined for another week, delaying his season debut. However, the positive news is he is close to fit, likely only needing a week or two more. Once he does return, the attacker will likely see a rotational role.

This is a big moment for the Brazilian, as these will also be his first minuets with the Bees if he sees the field.

Impact Lewis-Potter continues to see regular time this campaign, starting in nine of his 11 appearances. He has been able to maintain his role through his versatility, having started in three different positions this season. His two-way efforts have given him some value, notching one assist on nine chances created, 10 shots and 22 crosses in the attack to go along with four interceptions, 11 clearances and 16 tackles in the defense.

NOVEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Finding little playing time Mee has only appeared in two of the club's 11 league matches this season.

Impact Mee has greatly seen his role reduced since returning from an injury that ended his last campaign early, as he has only featured twice off the bench this season after starting in nearly every contest he was available for last campaign. It is likely his production isn't the same following the injury, although it is wild to see this far of a drop, only receiving four minutes of play thus far. He will likely have to see an increase in form before he sees any starting time again, seeing most of his time in cup ties.

NOVEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Sees time from bench Yarmolyuk registered one tackle won and two clearances off the bench in Saturday's 3-2 win over Brentford.

Impact Yarmolyuk appeared off the bench once again Saturday, still only starting in one of his seven appearances this season. He doesn't look likely to see much more of a role, probably following suit to last season where he only saw six starts in 27 appearances. Even when he does appear in games, he is a hard ask for a goal contribution, as he has yet to register one in the Premier League since joining the Bees in 2022.

Withdraws from national team Wissa withdrew from the DR Congo national team, the team announced.

Impact Wissa withdrew from the national team, though there were no details about what sort of injury he might be dealing with. During the busiest part of the schedule it's not surprising that he's carrying some sort of concern, though barring any negative updates he should be fit for a Nov. 23 trip to Everton.

His work produced the assist for Brentford's winning goal scored by Yoame Wissa. The German also tried to get on the scoresheet himself with an on target effort and another that was blocked.

He engaged in 15 duels, winning 9, four tackles and executing four clearances and an interception. In attack he bagged Brentford's second goal and had another attempt blocked. He was subbed after 89 minutes. This was the Dane's first goal but he has delivered four assists from his team's previous four EPL matches.

Impact Flekken could have been sharper Saturday. The Dutchman only managed one save, conceded two and was saved from conceding a third by the woodwork. He has yet to post a clean sheet this season but currently has completed an average of five saves per game, better than any of his EPL peers. He has a good chance of securing his first clean sheet in the Bees next against Everton, the Toffees have not scored in three of their last five matches.
