Former Tottenham midfielder Riley Owen is delighted with his move to Brentford.
Owen, 18, has landed a one-year Bees deal after successful trials and will start the season with the B team.
"If you look how we try to play as a team, on the ball we are very good," said Riley to the club's website.
"Neil (MacFarlane) wants us to play from the back and work our way through midfield so the build-up play, and what we are trying to achieve as a side, is very good.
It 100 per cent made my decision an easier one, I want to get on the ball and affect the games we play from that central midfield role, and the way the coaching staff want us to play helps me do that.
He (MacFarlane) said he trusts me on the ball but wants to help me with my work off it, so we have had good conversations. For me personally, I could see a pathway, just by how the team plays and even looking at the first team and seeing how they are progressing as well."
