Ivan Toney has been referred to by Thomas Frank as “a beast” and he will be fit to play when Brentford takes on Sheffield United the following Saturday.

Due to a hip injury, the striker began the 3-3 draw between Brentford and Aston Villa on the bench. He was substituted on for the final ten minutes of play.

Frank stated: “I probably wouldn’t have put him on the field if we were 2-0 up or 2-0 down. He’ll be ready for Sheffield United and is doing well. Although it would have been pushing it, he could have played today. What a beast he is. He can play through everything, but occasionally I have to be the cool man who can make the choice for him so that he can perform at his best.
