Brentford got themselves another solid point at the weekend as they took the long trip north to Middlesbrough to secure a 2-2 draw at the Riverside.

The Bees look to have recovered fairly well from their poor start with their performances far better now and results also a bit better.

Of course, they need to turn some of these good displays into wins to really get themselves up the league but they are playing the kind of football that should yield that.

And right at the centre of that has to be Ollie Watkins with him in great form over the last few games for the men from Griffin Park.

The young striker is scoring goals and setting them up whilst his link-up play is also impressive and that has been highlighted but this stat from The Lad on the Ball on Twitter:

For sure, then, the Bees man is looking like he could be a top player this season and in the years to come and so the west London side will be hoping that they can keep hold of him as he develops as a player.

The Verdict

Watkins has been great this last few games and he has personified the Griffin Park side's recent turn around in performances.

Now, then, he needs to keep that level up as his side looks to get some more wins on the board that their recent displays have deserved.
