BEES manager Thomas Frank praised his side’s mentality and how far they have come this season after they beat Watford.
A late goal from Pontus Jansson gave Brentford all three points despite riding their luck at times at Vicarage Road.
The result leaves Brentford just one point shy of the coveted 40-point mark and crucially, 15 points clear of the drop zone.
“It’s been in many ways a crazy season for us, remarkable season, we are now on 39 points, try to keep focused on winning the next game and finishing as high as possible,” the Brentford boss said.
“With coming up through the play-off final, lowest budget all of that, I think we (must) remember to say that on a day like this.

“On top of that and then we managed to have that, it’s been nearly three years since I’ve been in charge of the Bees and I can’t remember a last-minute winner and we have had three this season and we had more goals where we scored in the last seven or eight minutes.
“We’ve scored 13 goals in the last 15 minutes this season which are remarkable stats and shows two things, that we are unbelievably fit as we keep going throughout the game and the character and the mentality of the group of players is remarkable.”
