Brentford 0-0 Fulham: What Andrews said

Brentford have drawn each of their last six matches across all competitions, now their outright longest run of draws in their history. Nathan Collins made his 100th Premier League appearance for Brentford in this match, becoming the 11th player to make a century for the Bees, and the first Republic of Ireland player to reach 100 for any club in the competition since Matt Doherty for Wolves in April 2024.

Brentford's quest for a decisive victory continues, as a hard-fought 0-0 draw with Fulham at the Gtech Community Stadium extended their remarkable run to six consecutive draws across all competitions—a new, and perhaps frustrating, club record.

Manager Keith Andrews reflected on the stalemate, acknowledging the challenge of breaking down a disciplined Fulham side. "We were constantly probing against a well-drilled outfit," he told BBC Match of the Day. "If any team was going to win today, I think it could have and should have been us." His comments underscore a team performing well but searching for that final, cutting edge to turn solid performances into three points.

Despite the shared spoils, the match marked a significant personal milestone for defender Nathan Collins. The center-back made his 100th Premier League appearance for the Bees, etching his name into club history as the 11th player to reach a century of top-flight outings for Brentford. He also became the first Republic of Ireland international to hit 100 Premier League games for any club since Matt Doherty achieved the feat for Wolves earlier this year.

Looking ahead, Andrews emphasized ambition without setting rigid targets. "I want us to achieve, I want us to strive... There is an opportunity that everybody knows is there for us." For Brentford, converting these draws into wins is the next step in pushing for a potential European place, a goal that will require the same resilience they showed today, coupled with more clinical finishing in the final third.
