Loads of Brentford fans have reacted after Pontus Jansson shared a positive update regarding his fitness ahead of a crucial run of games for the Bees.

The centre-back has not played any part in any of the Bees' last nine Championship matches after picking up a hip injury, a run which has also seen their promotion hopes take a knock, but he has now delivered a fresh update.

Jansson made the controversial move to Griffin Park from Leeds United in the summer after falling out of favour under Marcelo Bielsa.

Since arriving in West London, he has made 24 appearances, becoming a key figure in the club's new-found solidity at the back with Brentford boasting the best defence in the league until last week.

Thomas Frank's men currently sit in fifth place with 57 points, 11 behind second-placed Leeds, but with a game in hand over their fellow promotion rivals.

And supporters are clearly delighted to see their talismanic centre-back return. Here is what they had to say in response to his update...
