MAX VERSTAPPEN RECEIVE A SAD NEWS THEIR KEY PLAYER GET INJURY WHEN THE MACHT WAS GO ON…….

Rico Henry’s season-ending injury is devastating news, not only for Brentford but also for the player.

Henry had an awkward fall during Saturday’s first-half loss at Newcastle. Despite walking off the field instead of being taken to the hospital, a scan has indicated the severity of his injuries.

Henry has been playing at his best this season, therefore his lack of an England call-up this month shocked everyone in the Bees camp.

Whether we have four or five at the back, the 26-year-old, who has been with the Bees the longest, is essential to Brentford’s style of play.

In addition to being the last guy back when we have a corner, his incredible speed creates many opportunities for assaults down the left.

He even outran a Cherries forward on a breakaway to get to the ball first, which is why he made the unusual mistake the other week against Bournemouth.

I hope Henry can recover from this setback as he has recovered from serious injuries in the past.

But now that he and Ivan Toney are gone, along with the losses of David Raya and Pontus Jansson, Brentford is without four of the main players who have helped us succeed in the last few years.

Although he hasn’t been as confident on that side as on the right, Aaron Hickey, a former Bologna left-back, will go across to cover, giving the dependable Mads Roerslev an opportunity to keep down the right-back position.
