Nathan Collins - Scores winner against West Ham Collins scored a goal off his lone shot and made 13 clearances during Saturday's 3-2 win over West Ham.

Impact Collins had a spectacular defensive performance, posting double-digit clearances for the first time this season and made an even bigger impact on the attacking end as he rose above all opposing defenders to head home a cross from the right for what ended up being the game-winning goal for Brentford in the 69th minute. This was the first goal of the season for Collins, who will probably be even busier defensively during Nov. 12 visit to Liverpool.

Mark Flekken - Dead leg leads to early exit Flekken was forced off the pitch in the 46th minute of Saturday's match against West Ham after picking up a dead leg in the first half, according to manager Thomas Frank.

Impact Flekken was taken off the pitch in Saturday's match due to a slight knock he received in the first half, leading to a dead leg. It shouldn't leave the goalie sidelined for too long, as it is a very minor injury. Thomas Strakosha replaced the Dutch keeper but will most likely return to the bench against Liverpool in their next match, with Flekken's injury being minor.

Aaron Hickey - Set for long spell on sidelines Hickey will be missing the next couple of months of action due to a hamstring injury, according to manager Thomas Frank. "Unfortunately, hamstring injury, that he got Thursday, and...

Impact Hickey looks to be set for a long spell on the sidelines after picking up an injury on Thursday during training. Manager Thomas Frank diagnosed the injury as a hamstring knock and, unfortunately, stated that he will not be back for the remainder of 2023. The defender will hope to return as early as he can into the new year but will have quite the recovery process ahead of him before seeing any playing time. You can expect Ben Mee to step in for Hickey while he is out, as Brentford is now very thin in the defender department, with Rico Henry also out with a long-term injury.

Impact Lewis-Potter is expected to return to team training before Sunday's trip to Liverpool, though it's more likely that he returns to match action after the international break for a Nov. 25 clash with Arsenal. The secondary scan coming back positively is great news for Lewis-Potter, who could compete for starting minutes with Neal Maupay.

Shandon Baptiste - Starts in international cup Baptiste got the start during Tuesday's 3-2 win over Strasbourg in the Premier League International Cup.

Impact Baptiste was training earlier in the week and now is in action with the U21 team. It's a great sign in his recovery and could point towards a return to the senior team sooner rather than later, though he is likely to remain little more than a depth option.
