Fulham manager Kit Symons has expressed his frustration after his side fell to a 4-1 loss against Brentford at Craven Cottage this afternoon.

Ross McCormack managed to strike from the penalty spot to give his side hope of getting something out of the game at Craven Cottage.

However, his goal failed to launch a revival as Brentford secured an emphatic triumph to move back into the top six of the Championship.

"It's a little bit of a recurring theme which is very frustrating," Symons said in his post-match press conference. "Playing some good football, creating some good chances, being on top in games but then not making it count.

"When you get those situations in football you need to make it count and you need to get a goal. A lot of the time we seem to be chasing at the moment. But ultimately people just look at the scoreline at the end of the game, and 4-1 looks like a hammering but the actual fact of the matter is that it wasn't. We were well in it but obviously didn't get anything out of it."

The Cottagers are seven points above the relegation zone.
