Every word Thomas Frank said after Brentford's defeat against Leicester City

How many points do Brentford need to survive?

Good question - I don't know! I don't focus on that - the only thing I focus on is the next game against Chelsea.

After the game earlier in the season, what did you say to Kasper Schmeichel today?

I said to him again "Well done!" - he made some fantastic saves. He made it more difficult for us to get closer and make a very exciting game, so he definitely kept them in the game in the second half.

How much of a blow was not having Christian Eriksen and when did you know he would be out?

I knew it already Monday/Tuesday. Of course, he's a top player - we would have liked him on the pitch. I still think we did well enough in the second half to get something out of it. I don't think he could avoid the two goals into the top corner.

How did the trio of Mbeumo, Toney and Wissa together work?

Better second half than first half! I think they also changed with 3-5-2 with Wissa and Toney as the strikers, and Bryan [Mbeumo] as the wing-back - that helped a tiny bit in terms of getting close enough.

How did Tariqe Fosu do on his Premier League debut?

He did quite well. He was composed, got in some good 1-v-1 situations.
