That's not to say that zohore will ever hit 25 but as a club, fan base included I don't think we really give players time to settle and progress. Perhaps as well as other things Brentford offers younger players the opportunity to progress and improve without quite as much scrutiny or pressure.
Maybe it's because we're always trying get promoted to the EPL or survive in it. We don't have time to develop players or a team. I'd gladly take 3 or more years of mid-table in the Championship if it meant we ended up with a team like Brentford's.
