IVAN TONEY is a "bighead" but Brentford would not have their star striker any other way.
According to Toney's team-mate Mads Roerslev, the Bees marksman dominates the club with his big personality and brash confidence.
But after the England forward scored on his return from an eight-month ban for breaking gambling rules, you won't hear Brentford complaining.
Roerslev said: "Hist personality dominates. One hundred percent.
He's a humble, hardworking guy. But also he has a big personality and everybody knows that. So long as it is in a good way, it's perfect for a team like us.
"It's very good to have a player like him. It gives you a confidence boost. It's amazing to have a player like that.
"How do we stop him getting a big head? No one can stop him! That's his best quality. He does that but he's still a good guy. It's a good way of doing it, not a bad way of doing it." Toney was treated like a returning hero, despite his long absence being the result of wrongdoing.
And after Danilo opened the scoring for Forest, he equalised with a pinpoint free-kick (above), with Ben Mee putting Thomas Frank's side ahead after half-time.
