Brentford boss Thomas Frank has no doubts about Ivan Toney's importance to his system.
Frank admits Ivan Toney is crucial to his Brentford game plan and the striker is likely to start at Brighton on Boxing Day.
The Dane has not confirmed Toney, who has scored five goals this term, will definitely start at the Amex Stadium but he is certainly keen to get him back in action as quickly as possible.
“He is fine," Frank said. “He should be in a better place for Boxing Day. I will not name the team before Boxing Day but we will see.
“There is a good chance he will start and it is no secret that I would prefer to start him if he is fit and ready, and also to play him as many minutes as possible, so I can go with the right intensity that I want. I hope that will be the plan."
