Andrews on Collins, Thiago and Hull

Brentford boss Keith Andrews has been speaking to the media before Sunday's Premier League game against Hull City at MKM Stadium (kick-off 14:00 GMT).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

  • Andrews said there was "nothing major to note" with regards to injury news. The Bees are still without captain Nathan Collins and Mathias Jensen but they have "taken the next step of their journey back with really good weeks of training".

  • On striker Igor Thiago, who has scored one league goal this season, Andrews said: "We constantly need to evolve how we are playing and how we are creating chances. Thiago at the moment is a very marked man. We've got goalscorers throughout the team. Thiago being Thiago wants to score more goals and he's certainly not far away."

  • On bouncing back after defeat against Liverpool: "We are always quite adaptable and have to be flexible in how and why we do things. We'll find that balance between what we have, where players are with their game, and how we can try to exploit what Hull show to find the gameplan that works."

  • On facing Hull: "A proper test. They've a belief they can absolutely compete at this level. They've produced some really good performances; they've been in every single game they've played and we're at the end of October. That says everything about where they are."

  • He added that Hull have been "brilliant" since returning to the top flight, stating: "It's very evident that they have a spirit, a really honest spirit about the group, and they have a togetherness and honesty about the group. They've got some very, very experienced players that have been in the league before, and they've got players that are there for the first time that want to enjoy the journey. The way they play the game and the way they're organised is very impressive."
