With Brentford just missing out on Promotion this season after a gruelling 3-0 defeat in the second leg of the Sky Bet Championship play-offs against Middlesbrough, the club will be hungry for another chance at promotion next season.

There's no doubt that Brentford have a fantastic team that was worthy of a top sixe finish, but who were their key players?

Here's three players that have performed well for Brentford this season and whether they'll carry on with the form next season.

1. Andre Gray

The talented forward has performed above the bar all season and has been a bargain signing since joining from Luton for just about £500k.

Gray has been constantly among the goals in his first season contributing 17 goals out of the 78 that Brentford have scored, meaning that he nearly scored a quarter of the club's goals.

The 23-year-old striker is a born goalscorer and has the ability to pick the ball up and take on the defence with his pace. He's been an integral part of Brentford's attacking game and will be pivotal next season if he can carry on his current form.

2. Jota

Spending a lot of time at clubs on loan in Spain. Mark Warburton took a gamble bringing in Jota to Brentford for £1.3million and the gamble paid off.

Jota has contributed 11 goals and 3 assists in the Championship from midfield this season, with it being his first season in England that is a fantastic start to his career at Brentford.

Known for his versatility, Jota can play anywhere in midfield and this has been a major benefit to Brentford when they want to switch things around.

His ability to switch positions causes oppositions to second guess where he will be, causing major defensive problems.

Jota has fantastic vision and passing range that can trump most opposition. If Brentford can keep this Spanish magician fit and in form, then the club's should be worried of what the club can do with him in their side.

3. Alan Judge

A surprise omission from the team of the season, Judge has been a stand out player for Brentford this season and a vital part of their midfield.

Judge joined the club on a permanent from Blackburn this summer after impressing last season on loan and has been an absolute bargain for £700k.

 

He has contributed 15 assists and 3 goals this season and is a fantastic addition to any side in the league.

Judge controls a midfield and is set to have another fantastic season at Brentford and at only 26, there's still plenty of time for Judge to improve even more on his career best 15 assists.

If Brentford can keep these 3 key players at the club and on form, who knows what the club can do next season? After seeing surprise package Bournemouth triumph in the Championship this season, could Brentford set about following the South Coast club to the promised land?
