If he can only play weeks, it is weeks but the more time he plays with us, the better for us. Antoine's situation is quite clear. Antoine is a massive player for us and even in games like today where probably he hasn't played well, he is always a threat to score and assist.""
""Schade broke the deadlock in the seventh minute with a fine finish from Igor Thiago's pass and a comical own goal by Cherries goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic gave the Bees a deserved two-goal lead at half-time. Schade made it 3-0 six minutes into the second period and despite Semenyo's close-range back-heel in the 75th minute, Brentford's number seven claimed his second hat-trick for the club in stoppage time""
Andoni Iraola reiterated a desire to retain winger Antoine Semenyo for as long as possible amid intensified transfer speculation and a £65 million release clause that activates in January. Semenyo scored his ninth goal of the campaign in a 4-1 defeat at Brentford, which extended Bournemouth's winless run to nine matches. Manchester City are reported to be progressing with a move for the winger. Iraola emphasized Semenyo's importance, acknowledged some factors sit outside his control, and indicated Semenyo should be available to play in the upcoming fixture against Chelsea.
