Brentford 0-0 Tottenham: What Andrews said

Keith Andrews spoke to BBC Match of the Day after Brentford's draw against Tottenham: "Lovely to see Thomas [Frank], as always. [He's] somebody who I respect hugely. I enjoyed working with him last season. Tonight, I thought we edged it and if anybody was going to win the game it was probably us."

On Brentford's missed chances: "They beat us twice last season - they deserved to beat us 26 days ago at Spurs. Today was a completely different performance. We wanted it quick in the tempo in the second half and they tried to slow it down.

"Thomas is very aware of what this home crowd can do and how dangerous we can be. Their goalkeeper got booked for time wasting which pretty much says it all.

On Cristian Romero's challenge on Igor Thiago: "Two games in a row he has been very fortunate not to get red cards for tackles on Thiago.

"I don't think it's an easy one for the officials, I thought the one in the home game was a very easy one. I am always very respectful of the individuals and understanding of the job that they have to do - but I thought he was really fortunate.

"I thought the irony of us getting checked for a penalty and there was nothing around the challenge on Thiago which, having watched it back, was a blatant red card for me, so I would have been pretty aggrieved if they had gone up the other end and gone the other way.

"It is difficult for the officials. We are a very honest team in how we play the game. I don't want our teams looking for silly or cheap fouls - I want us to be a team that puts it on the opposition and plays the game in the right way. Our players won't fall to the ground. Unfortunately, Thiago was stopped from getting to the ball."
