However, if Brentford want to make their mark in the Premier League, they will need to hit the ground running.<\/p>\n<p>During the Bees\u2019 time in the English Championship, they managed to transform the Brentford Community Stadium into a fortress, losing just two of their 23 league matches played at home last season.<\/p>\n<p>With football fans back in stadiums in England, Brentford will have even more motivation to play the brand of football they\u2019ve shown to produce over the past couple of seasons. A possession based-style game, mixed with attacking flair, could see the Bees repeat their goal scoring prowess in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p>The sting in the Brentford attack has been star-striker, Ivan Toney, who goes into the new campaign off the back of a record-breaking season, banging in 31 goals, which saw the 25-year-old striker from Northampton surpass Glenn Murray\u2019s record, set back in the 2012\/13 season.<\/p>\n<p>CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za.<\/p>\n<p> &#8211; <small>MyPR<\/small><\/p>\n<p> CLICK HERE to submit your news to www.MyPR.co.za.<\/p>\n<p> Click here to submit your Johannesburg, Gauteng News &#8211; free.<\/p>\n<p> <strong>Have you tried:<\/strong> Visiting Port Elizabeth?<\/p>\n<p> <strong>Did you know this about Johannesburg?<\/strong> The Johannesburg Zoo is more than 100 years old: The zoo was founded in 1904 and covers 55 hectares of land.
