However, the contrast in Brentford's home and away form this season has been genuinely jaw-dropping. At home they're unbeaten, and have taken 22 points from a possible 24. On the road they remain winless, with one measly point from a possible 21. It's not as if Frank has been making wholesale changes, either. They're the same players, but they're just not performing away from the G-Tech.
Amid the travails of Man City and Arsenal, Chelsea have emerged as the closest challengers to Liverpool, with Enzo Maresca's men currently trailing the league leaders by four points, albeing having played a game more. Their thrashing of Tottenham felt like a statement, but considering all of the previous false dawns over the past few seasons, it's far too early to be getting carried away.
There are still serious question marks over Robert Sanchez and the central defenders du jour, though for the first time since joining the club, Jadon Sancho and Enzo Fernandez have started producing the goods.
